I'm a transplant to New Hampshire and am from warm and sunny Texas - where Spring starts in earnest in late February and life is abundant by March. That's just not the case here - everything is still pretty brown, but we do... Continue Reading →
Hobonichi Weeks – Week 14 of 2020

Friday Cozies – Week 14 of 2020
Week 3 of remote learning will wrap up today! Three weeks of being at home with everyone, doing my best to limit time in front of screens, constantly tidying despite knowing that it's useless, and waiting on bedtime.

Hobonichi Weeks – Week 11 of 2020
Happy Tuesday! I usually write these posts on Monday, but I have been knocked out by a cold. The weekend was an absolute mess that I'd hoped would clear up on Monday, but unfortunately not.
