Today is a very special occasion. For today officially marks one-year blogging here at Insecure Housewife! It’s kind of crazy to think it has been exactly one year since I published my first post. In truth, I have been blogging off and on, mostly off, for the last ten years. However, this blog holds a special place in my heart. Many of the previous ones were abandoned after a few months. In fact, some of them never had a single post added. Back then I was so afraid of posting the wrong thing that I couldn’t bring myself to even truly try. In the pastRead More →

As winter’s icy chill continues to have a firm grip on things, it can be easy to succumb to the winter blahs. Depending on where you live, this may not even be an issue. After all, some areas barely get any winter weather. However, those who live in the colder Nothern climates know all too well how long and cold winter can be. When the winter is howling, the snow is blowing and the temperatures dip to a dangerous level, what is one to do? Here are 8 things to do when it’s too cold to go outside.

I love the blogging community. Ever since I started this blog, there has been nothing but positive support. One of the nice touches to the blogging community is the blogger awards. These awards help to show love to bloggers old and new. I was nominated for the Mystery Blogger Award by Phigella and Imogen. This is the second time that I have been nominated for this award – though I suppose technically it’s higher than that since this post alone contains two people who nominated me. The Mystery Blogger Award was created by Okoto Enigma. Be sure to visit her blog! The Rules Put the award logo/imageRead More →

Ah, November. The second last month of the year and the real beginning of winter for us Northerners. It is hard to believe that the year is almost over. I feel like these past few months just flew by far too quickly. Hopefully, that means that the winter will also pass in a flash. Since it’s a new month, that means it’s time to set some new goals. However, before I share my November goals, I want to take a moment and go over my October goals and see how those went. How I did in October October was quite the month. There was Thanksgiving,Read More →

Hello October! Wow, this year is going by so fast. I have a hard time believing that it is already October. A new month means a new set of goals. Before I get into my October goals, I want to take a moment and look back on my September goals and see how well I did with them. How I did in September Weed the garden. Not so much. Harvest the garden. Done! Got lots of beans, shelling peas and snap peas picked. Prep the garden for winter. Some of this is done. However, with some plants still occupying the beds, not all of it is done. CleanRead More →

Oh August where did you go? Is it just me or did August just fly by? It seems that this year going by super fast. Another month means another list of goals.

How I did in August I did okay with my goals in August. Admittedly, I could have done better, but I honestly don’t mind not hitting some goals. Weed the garden. I didn’t do all thatRead More →

August is here! Can you believe another month has come and gone? This year seems to be flying by. A new month means it is time to set some new goals. Back in June I started making monthly goals and continued to do so in July. I have really been enjoying this new trend in my life. So, I want to keep doing this every month. It is time to share what my August goals are. But first, let’s take a moment and see how I did with July’s goals. How I did in July I overall did pretty well with my July goals. InRead More →
