Books, Writing, & The Cozy Life
Friends, I did not mean to disappear in the middle of last week! I thought we were making progress on our sleep schedules but that has now become a regression and we're starting over. This is just an explanation and not a complaint, so don't fret. I'm keeping things in perspective and we're all doing... 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.

Today's and Wednesday's posts were... Continue Reading →
We decided to visit a new-to-us trail on Monday afternoon. I have been pretty sick for the last week and haven't been able to do my typical spin workouts so I thought a walk would be a good substitute. This trail goes through our town forest and we thought we could depend on it being... Continue Reading →
Greetings from a rainy New Hampshire! We've had a dry spell over the last couple of weeks and I was delighted when rain came through overnight -- and when I realized that it was still raining this morning! I meant to write and publish this post yesterday but a combination of illness and the time... Continue Reading →
Happy November, friends. I have been under the weather the last couple of days so today's post will be quite short. I created the mood board in the opening picture earlier this week and hope that it captures the upcoming month. I'm looking forward to the beginning stages of my independent learning plans and to...
