Books, Writing, & The Cozy Life
Happy Friday, kindred spirits. I'm sharing a smattering of pictures from the last month or so. Life has been quiet - just how I like it.

I opened up this draft and immediately stood up. All of a sudden, my hair needed to be brushed. But I made myself sit back down. I have half an hour at the most to make myself write an update. The only time I think to brush my hair is when I'm too afraid to... Continue Reading →
It's the first full weekend in September! It's officially fair season in New Hampshire so last weekend we loaded up and cuddled so many sheep and goats that it was ridiculous. All three of my children discovered cotton candy so it was really easy to keep them happy during our time there. What a win!... Continue Reading →
