Books, Writing, & The Cozy Life
This is my sixth year to choose a word for the year, believe it or not. Funnily enough, I feel like I've almost come full circle. My first word in 2018 was abundance and today I'm sharing my goal of less. And really - they are the same idea. They're about being content with what... Continue Reading →
Good morning! Can you believe that it's Friday? This has been one of those weeks that has been agonizingly slow while also flying by. Know what I mean? So on one hand, yes. I can believe that it's Friday. And on the other... what is Friday? I can comprehend very little right now. I am... Continue Reading →
Just a quick note to let you know that I've decided to take this week off from blogging. I wish I could spend it like August the cat in the opening picture, but I don't expect to! I hope all of my American friends have a lovely Thanksgiving and that everyone reading has a week... Continue Reading →
Hi friends! Can you believe that next week is Thanksgiving? It sneaks up on me every year. Maybe one day I'll get the hang of preparing for these holidays in advance but I haven't gotten there yet. Yikes! And we woke up to a blanket of snow and a 2 hour school delay for Colton... Continue Reading →
I'm sure many of you are feeling the same way this morning: the weekend went by too darn fast! I have to say that I didn't manage to read at all thanks to my three children. And that's okay because we stayed quite busy in all the best ways. Today's post has a few pictures... Continue Reading →
July has been a slow reading month for me and for the last few weeks I've only been able to listen to audiobooks. I don't seem to have the ability to sit down and read a book lately. And it's funny because less than a month ago I couldn't figure out how to listen to... Continue Reading →
Happy Wednesday, friends. For two weeks in a row, I have no knitting to share so I'm focusing on books again. I have a recent finish, an update on a couple of other (amazing!) books, and a bit about this year's Indie Bookstore Day. I have my coffee at my side and am so ready... Continue Reading →
Welcome to Wednesday, dear friends. A big thank you to Kat for hosting Unraveled Wednesday - a gathering place for stitchers and readers to share their works in progress. I'm trying to stagger my stitching escapades on my blog and am focusing on one discipline each week. But I have to be honest: I've mostly... Continue Reading →
It's time to talk about my One Little Word for 2022. Picking this year's word has been a journey. I had my 2021 word picked out well in advance and was so excited to get started. My 2022 word has been much more elusive and has changed a few times, including just a week or... Continue Reading →
It's been a while since I shared a poem, but here I am. Remember when I complained about my current Mary Oliver collection? I said that I'd already read many of the collections these poems were pulled from and that I was trying to remind myself that rereading poetry is encouraged. Well - lesson learned....
