Choice L

How hard can an Arkansas written test be? Alison has already passed the California and Tennessee permit tests before. 

Alison fails the permit test! How embarrassing. Go back to paragraph (L) over and over until Alison gets a road manual and studies for the permit test. The proctor knows her well now. Let's move past this.

One Word Inspiration: Choice, the beginning

-

  This is a choose-your-own-adventure story. What happens next is your choice . Alison is a twenty-six-year-old married woman, and she has a decision to make. Alison can depend on her family for transportation to work and school, or she can take a risk and learn how to drive. Alison has a recurring dream of driving in unsafe situations. In the dreaming, Alison does not know how to use a blinker; she reaches for the wheel and pedals while her bum sits in the passenger seat. Alison wakes up feeling like she has no choice but to never drive. You have a choice: Alison reads the driving manual. Link to blog post (A). Alison rationalizes that because she is disabled, she must never drive. Link to blog post (N) (A) Alison looks up the Tennessee State driver manual online and studies for the next week. Alison now deems herself ready for the written test in order to earn her learner’s permit. Link to blog post (C) Alison’s lack of faith in her ability to drive safely upsets her. She belie...

My Ideal Daily House-Mom-Wife Homemaking Routine Mon-Sat

The first essential that a homemaker needs is a daily routine. When I made my first routine, I looked at several vintage and modern homemaking routines before making mine because I was starting from scratch; I didn't even know what I should be doing with my house in a day.  Of course, any routine is an ideal  day at home. There are going to be days when I run errands and go to my mom's house, and I don't commit my homemaking routine to Sundays because I routinely spend that day out of the house with my family.  I also consider my routine an ideal and not a standard because, so far, the self-discipline to commit to a routine is hard work; I just haven't gotten there yet. My primary obstacle is that unless I start my routine at my planned start time, I lose motivation to pick up later in the morning. My planned wake-up time is 7:30 a.m. I know a lot of vintage homemakers woke up at 6:00 a.m., so I shouldn't complain about waking up an hour and a half later. But, I hav...

Gamifying Homemaking by Making a Fandom Out Of It

  Posted on  September 4, 2025  by  Alison Rushing The rough start When I was engaged to my husband, I knew part of being married meant having a home together. I planned to become domestic, considering I wasn’t already domestic, and put a lot of energy into it, leading up to getting married. I channeled my energy into my first blog at  The Domestication of the Running Rose – The Running Rose’s guide to getting crafty and growing up . After Lee and I got married, we found out that I wasn’t very domestically inclined. I remember making box meals and sweeping the floor in our first apartment. But I also remember spending too many hours watching  Pretty Little Liars.  I got so hooked on Netflix, I remember defending my habits, saying, “I don’t want to miss out.” Also, if you look at  The Domestication of the Running Rose , while I wanted to be “domestic,” I wasn’t really interested in homemaking. I am creative, I am an artist, and I chase a lot of cre...
