Books, Writing, & The Cozy Life
It's been two months and I have no idea how to write this update! There's just so much to share and -- at the same time -- nothing really new around here. We've had some stunning days that have allowed us to spend big chunks of time outside and we've had even more stifling days... Continue Reading →
Friends -- it is Friday! And the Friday before February Vacation for the schools here in New Hampshire. Colton got sent home from school with a fever yesterday (no fever or symptoms today) so his vacation got started about a day and a half early since they require students to be fever free for 24...

Happy Friday, friends! The wind is blowing hard outside right now as we prepare for another round of storms this weekend. But the sky is bright blue and we're about to head out for a trip to Sam's Club despite the wind and I wanted to check in before I sign off for the weekend.... Continue Reading →
Friends, I've been telling Matthew that this year feels apocalyptic even before the fires started in LA.

I'm working hard to take the message of Wednesday's post to heart.

I experience quite a bit of panic at the beginning of the year given my personality and past -- what... Continue Reading →
Happy New Year! My New Year's Eve was nice and quiet. Matthew had to work for a good chunk of it (2pm-10:30pm) but made it home for midnight. I was actually awake for the big moment which is highly unusual for me. I spent most of the evening watching Fellowship of the Ring, responding to... Continue Reading →
Wow - my next blog post will be in 2025. What a thing to write! I can't believe a whole year has gone by and we are on the cusp of another. I've sat down several times today to write this post and have been pulled away each time, so let's see if I can... Continue Reading →
Friends, thank you so much for your warm support in my last post, which was now two weeks ago if you can believe it. I am still feeling quite overwhelmed with all of the holiday brouhaha, the state of American politics, and my responsibilities at home, but I've desperately missed connecting with all of you...

Welcome to Monday, friends. I hope you were able to find some time for the things you love over the weekend. Mine was full of baking and cleaning, with a small helping of reading. I went on walks, alone and with an assortment of the children. Over all -- it was the best weekend possible... Continue Reading →
