I am Kathy aka Oma by my grandchildren. My musings are all the random thoughts going on in my head.

I want to encourage women to simplify their lives. On my blog, I share ideas that can help women of all ages achieve a simpler, more minimalistic life – both in their homes and in their minds. I write about what I’ve learned as I seek to become more minimalist myself, in the hope that I can help others declutter their homes, their thoughts, and their worries.

In retirement, I’ve found that I have more time to devote to learning new things. Whether you’re an empty nester like me, or a young mom with kids still at home, I hope I can help you find some peace and enjoyment in your life. Jesus promises us an abundant life, and I believe that includes learning new things and expanding our horizons.

As someone who is passionate about reading, listening, and learning, I feel it is my duty to share all of the information I gather with those who are too busy to do so themselves. I know how important it is to stay up-to-date and informed, and I hope that by sharing what I have learned, I can make your life a little bit easier.

2 Corinthians 1:4

“He comforts us in all our affliction, so that we may be able to comfort those who are in any kind of affliction, through the comfort we ourselves receive from God.”
