A December Update
Friends! I have missed you. I am sorry for my total absence over the last month. I'm here today to fill you in on what's been going on with me and my hopes for 2024. We are on a school break this week and next-- which is a tremendous relief for me. Our homeschooling has... Continue Reading →
This Week’s: Knitting | Reading | Music
Hello! Can you believe it is November 15th? We're halfway through the month and headed into December. How did that happen? It is definitely Stick Season here in New Hampshire; the snow from last week melted quickly and I am anxiously awaiting our next storm. If it's going to be so dark all of the... Continue Reading →
Life Right Now + October 2023 Reading + Knitting
Happy Wednesday, friends! Thank you so much for all of your kind words and encouragement in my last blog post. I'm still getting used to not having a blog schedule and don't yet know how to organize myself to ensure that I show up consistently in a new way. But I managed to finagle an... Continue Reading →
Less | October 2023
Hello out there! This is my first blog post since October 9th, which is the longest I've gone without an update since 2016. Yikes!

This last week has been much warmer than typical October weather (in the 80s) and I'm ready to say goodbye to summer. But we can definitely see the leaves... Continue Reading →
September 2023 Reading Review
Happy Monday, friends! I hope your weekend went well. We had a quiet weekend; we stayed close to home, ate from the crockpot, and enjoyed a couple of evenings around the fire pit.

Bookish Chatter | Childhood Matters
I'm running a little late again this week. On Monday I managed to publish my post in the afternoon and now I'm running about a day behind schedule. That's okay!

Less | September 2023
And wow! It's the last week of September. I'm sure you're all as shocked as I am. I'm here today to write about my word of the year, Less. Today's post is a little different and doesn't include a reflection from September. Instead, it's an effort to look ahead to October. Will you cheer me... Continue Reading →
