Books, Writing, & The Cozy Life
It's been a long time since I've written a notebook post! I still keep many notebooks that I update nearly everyday, but I lost my enthusiasm for these Monday posts. I've started keeping a new notebook in 2022 - A Needlework Enthusiast's Book of Days - and wanted to share a bit about it. I... Continue Reading →
Happy Friday, friends. This week has been so quiet around my home, which is strange. Our walls are typically vibrating with energy and noise, but I think we're all doing a bit of wintering right now. It's a welcome change for me! This week I've sank into a routine of reading and writing, so I... Continue Reading →
This post is a little late today -- I actually had it ready to go this morning and decided not to push publish. My blogging routine is feeling so blah lately! But I'll stick with what I have for today and figure out next week when it comes. Last week finally felt like summer and... Continue Reading →
Well, hello August. The summer weather has been hanging around the last couple of days and I'm trying not to be disappointed. July was perfect for me! And I suppose a little suffering is to be expected in August. Despite the warm weather, we managed to spend most of the weekend outside, which has worked... Continue Reading →
Happy August! I have to say that this was probably the best July of my life. It was relatively cool, we were outside nearly every single day of the month, and it was full of my favorite things.

Happy Monday! Can you believe July is nearly over? I know it's cliché, but I have no idea where this summer has gone. That's one of the reasons I'm so grateful for this little notebook habit of mine - it's easy to look back and see that, yes, I actually existed this summer. Without it,... Continue Reading →
Each Monday I share the previous week's entry in my planner. My purpose is to think about how I'm using my time and ensure I'm making choices that match up with my overarching goals and values. I'm also seeking some semblance of balance, but that's usually difficult to see over the span of just a... Continue Reading →
On Monday mornings I spend a little time looking at the week that just ended - how am I using my time? Does it match my overarching goals and and values? Today we'll be (briefly) looking at two weeks since I took a little blogging vacation last week! Week 26Week 27 I've had two very... Continue Reading →
We're in the last few days of June! I hope you're all enjoying the summer. We're reveling in a slightly more relaxed schedule and spending plenty of time outside with our garden and flowers. I'm publishing this post mid-morning because I've found it difficult to steady my blogging rhythm over the last few weeks. I'm... Continue Reading →
Good morning! Nearly every Monday I share the previous week's spread from my planner. This gives me an opportunity to think about the week that just ended and how I used my time. Last week was full of reading and playing outside - perhaps my most balanced week in a long time. I feel like... Continue Reading →
