Q+A: Meet Christine

Founders Note: Today on the blog we have  Christine from So Called Homemaker. She is sharing a little bit more about herself and her blog!  I really enjoyed getting to know her more through this post, So be sure to check it out at the links below!



1.  What is the story behind your blog name?
Honestly, when I was starting my blog and thinking of names, it just kind of came to me.  Since I am technically a “work at home mom” instead of a “stay at home mom”, I’m not really a homemaker.  But I still cook, clean, and take care of my kid pretty much all day, every day, so in that sense I am a “homemaker”.  Hence, the “so-called” homemaker!

2. How did you start blogging?
A “real life” friend had started blogging and I saw how much fun she seemed to be having, so I decided to give it a shot!




3. whats one thing that you love about the blogging community?
I love that for the most part, this community is all about building each other up!  I get tired of the relationships between women when it seems like all they want to do is tear each other down all the time.
 4. What's your favorite thing about Fall?
Oh man, that’s tough.  I guess I’m going to have to go with the air.  It’s not too hot, and not too cold, and usually there’s a perfect breeze blowing!


5. If you could travel anywhere in the world, where would you go and why?
Another tough one!  I think I would probably spend a year backpacking around Europe/Russia/China.  I have always wanted to backpack/train travel, so I would do that from Italy up-and-around the continents until we got to China!
6.What's your favorite Fall TV. show?
          New Girl!  I think that comes on in the Fall, right?  I usually just watch it on Netflix, haha.

    This was fun. And backpacking around Europe is fun.

    It's nice to "meet" you, Christine! I liked reading the story behind your blog name and how you got started! Does that real life friend still keep up her blog?


    What you said about the blogging community is so true. I think it is especially refreshing to meet Christian bloggers because they seem to be all about helping each other out! I love it. :)

Being Content

Content, As christian women we here that word more times than we can count, especially in a season of waiting. Content is defined as,   pleased and satisfied : not needing more.  Have you been in a season in your life where your feel like you are just waiting? Waiting for a new job, waiting for things to get better, waiting for marriage, etc. Whatever you are waiting for, sometimes it just seems like it's taking forever just like a long line at the grocery store.  When I think about being content, my thoughts instantly go to being content in my singleness. How many times have we heard the cliche lines like "just wait, God's got it" said by well meaning people, only to make you feel worse. There was a time in my life where it was so hard to hear all of those lines without just wanting to cry, because like I said it made me feel worse rather than better.  That is when I would get discontent in waiting,  sometimes I feel like i am in this never...
