Books, Writing, & The Cozy Life
Hello to a new week! I had a quiet and relatively restful weekend and am so ready to start a new week. My notebook is set up and ready to be covered in another week's worth of activities and our homeschooling schedule is filled to the brim; I have ideas to take to the library... Continue Reading →
What a weekend! Here in New Hampshire, it was relatively warm and sunny. A lot of snow melted so our driveway became Puddle City and, once again, plenty of mud has been tracked into the house. The work is never done! But it is so nice that the kids can get outside and burn off... Continue Reading →
Our maple tree somehow still has leaves on it despite how quickly my lap gets covered when I'm sitting under it and reading, even for just a few minutes. It rained all day yesterday and it is forecasted to keep raining today. We will see what that does to the leaves this weekend! I'm enjoying... Continue Reading →
When thinking of goals for 2020, I wanted them to be simple. Much like my word of the year - to be present - I wanted something easy to fall back on. In the past, I've made really specific goals such as "read 12 nonfiction books," and "write 3 blog posts a week." Those are... Continue Reading →
April was a killer month for me - I'm pretty sure that I was sick for at least three solid weeks of it and I completely fell out of most of my habits. Today is May 1st and I just finished this wonderful books on habits, so I'm thinking about how to find a nice... Continue Reading →
Today I'm linking up with the Five Minute Friday community. FMF is a weekly linkup that provides a prompt (this week is OFFER) and invites bloggers to set a timer for five minutes and WRITE. For weeks I've been debating whether to rejoin the Five Minute Friday linkup. It's been a couple of years since... Continue Reading →
We're nearly a quarter of the way through the year and it seems like everyone is taking stock of their blog goals - our original intentions versus what we've created as a result of our real lives. I don't know about you, but I feel adrift. I thought my goals for this year were simple:... Continue Reading →
I have been trying to write every day and publish a blog post most days of the week, but my life hasn't been cooperating! Just this morning I woke up at 4am to write my morning pages and to login to WordPress, but my littlest baby wasn't too happy with that. So I spent an... Continue Reading →
I often find myself wondering how people achieve balance in their writing time. Of course, "balance" is my eternal struggle, so it makes sense that I'd find a way to work it into this subject! Nearly all of my time writing is devoted to this blog even though there are other projects that have been... Continue Reading →
Less than a month ago I was debating whether Morning Pages were still worth the time and energy anymore. At that writing, I recommitted myself to writing daily and promised to check in with my thoughts. Because I'm getting up to write morning pages, I've started cultivated a writing routine that I felt was impossible... Continue Reading →
