A Housewife Extraordinaire

I'm a housewife. A Housewife Extraordinaire is the woman of Proverbs 31. Growing in my vocation to be this kind of woman is my life's work and God's calling in my life. Somedays I knock it out of the park and other days not so much. And it's all good.

I'm a former military wife, homeschool mom of 18 years and I'm committed to creating a beautiful, well-run home on a budget and making a life I enjoy and that brings my family love and peace.

I am obsessed with finding old things and repurposing them, giving them a new lease on life. I love creating new things. I love decorating, building and exploring art and creativity every day.

Everything I learned about repurposing I learned from God, who took my broken life and made me new and useful again.

I'm always working on a project. Always. I am passionate about my faith, my marriage, my family and more than a few little pop culture obsessions like The Walking Dead and Comic Books.

I love biking, walking, cooking, gardening, discussing politics, and theology, watching documentaries, listening to Jimmy Buffett and Johnny Cash, love my Catholic Church and Nutella - not necessarily in that order.

Homeschooling and being a fulltime mom is my life's work and I have freakin' love every minute of it. I've always worked from home running businesses, writing, or some such venture but my heart is happiest when I am being mom.

I talk about a lot of stuff, because a lot of things knock around in my head and if they don't go somewhere I end up painting and repainting rooms and chronic rearranging my house. So cut me some slack.

I have lots of ideas and opinions. We all do. Don't be offended. They're just mine and I have no ability to impose them on you so if they seem horrific, critical, unobtainable or nutty, move on - no problem. Do whatever works for you and celebrate it. I am doing what works for me and I love it.
