Happy November, friends. I have been under the weather the last couple of days so today's post will be quite short. I created the mood board in the opening picture earlier this week and hope that it captures the upcoming month. I'm looking forward to the beginning stages of my independent learning plans and to...

It’s Looking Like November | New Books in My Life + 6 Days
Friends, it is nearly November! And as you can see from my opening picture, our maple tree is feeling it. In less than one week, almost all of its leaves have dropped and the world around us is looking like November. The glowing oranges, reds, and yellows are dampening into more muted versions of themselves... Continue Reading →
Friday | Foliage Update; Book Nook; Independent Learning Plan
Good morning, friends! My notebooks are all telling me that today is Friday and that feels impossible. This week has flown by so quickly and the time has slipped away. I don't have a lot to report, so this will be a fast post. Today I'm sharing an update on our maple tree, a glimpse... Continue Reading →
Friday | Nope! It’s Saturday
Good morning, dear readers. I have been very quiet this week and just wanted to check in with all of you. I've been running behind on my blog since Monday and didn't want the week to end without an update. This week has been full of foliage, school planning, knitting, and reading a book that...

Friday | Knitting & Reading Updates
Happy Friday! I'm publishing late today because Colton had a 7:45 appointment this morning for his covid and flu shots. His doctor was kind of enough to schedule him before her day started because he's at the beginning of a four day weekend and this would give him time to recover if he needs it.... Continue Reading →
September 2024 Reading Review
Happy October! This is it. We've finally made it to my favorite month. The leaves are changing and falling in earnest now; we are very near peak foliage in the mountains here in New Hampshire. These cooler, crisper months make me want to keep the espresso burbling in my moka pot, turn on the heating... Continue Reading →

Friday | A Week Full of Books
(opening picture credit) Happy Friday! I am so glad the weekend is near and that Matthew is on vacation next week. It will be nice to have some help around the house in the evenings and we will be able to watch some television that we haven't been able to get to on the weekends,... Continue Reading →
Friday | Thank Goodness
(opening photo credit) I am so happy to say it is Friday! I said on Monday that it was going to be a strange week and it certainly was. My sleep was off, my exercise routine was off (which only exacerbates my poor sleep), Colton's sleep was off (which again, exacerbates certain frustrations around here),... Continue Reading →
Friday | Substack Discussion, Reading Challenges, Weekly Reading Review
Thank you to Sarah for this opening picture! She sent me a link to the gorgeous Fisher Fine Arts Library at Penn, one of her favorite study places. That link is full of the most amazing pictures and I fell in love. And if you have a favorite library, will you let me know? I'm... Continue Reading →
