Reflections of a Work-in-Progress Mom
We are now almost halfway through my toss-together declutter challenge – The Great Declutter of 2019. Since some people didn’t get in before the group closed, I’m already scheming planning for the one I’ll host next month. I will probably declutter on my own through the rest of the year as needed, but I don’t have Read More …
My toss-together declutter challenge is going well. We’re only 5 days in but I’m more inspired to keep at it. I didn’t think there’d be much response as it was last-minute but I ended up posting several reminders, closing the group when we had 2 dozen members, and then another dozen or so messaged me to Read More …
I frequently have friends ask me what I’m reading or what I recommend, so hopefully, these posts are helpful in giving you some ideas. If there’s a certain topic you’re looking for, let me know and I’ll see if I can direct you to a book. 🙂 UPDATE: Here’s My 2019 Book List >>> joycemoy.com/booklist2019 Read More …

As I was starting to read this book, I realized that I’ve never read a book by Annie Downs. I’ve read her blog posts and social media posts. I have several of her books on my to-eventually-buy-one-day wishlist which is pretty much just a list of all the books on Amazon. I even have friends Read More …
Ellie Claire does it again! We are impressed with the Ellie Claire Art Journals and these devotionals are just as amazing. The covers are gorgeous and each page has a quote, question, or verse plus a devotional and space to journal your reflections on the day’s thoughts. The paper is archive quality and non-bleed if you love journaling, lettering, Read More …
In today’s Pinterest-perfect, Instagram-worthy world, it’s not hard to see why so many people are feeling less-than. It appears everyone else is doing amazing things and going to amazing places. They look like they’re doing okay. But that’s a snippet of their life. Even if that’s not the intention of most people who share on Read More …

The holidays can bring up all kinds of emotions. It can be the whole range of all the feels from joy to grieve or from anticipation to disappointment. There seem to be so many unspoken rules and expectations when it comes to holidays through traditions passed down through the generations and a flurry of activities. Read More …
Having been out of an “official” student role for more than a decade, I haven’t given much thought to what is going on in the college scene or the future that recent graduates are headed toward. It seems like the times have changed and education is not the same as it used to be. College Read More …
