I am linking up with Deb at Readerbuzz, Kathryn at Book Date, and Kimba the Caffeinated Book Reviewer.
Hello everyone!
Books:


I finished this one up last week, and I adored it. It was just cute and light and easy which was exactly what I needed. I already have the second in the series in my stack to read.
I also read Agnes Aubert, finally, and I absolutely loved every minute of it!!
Which leads us to my reading plan for this week! I have a few I am wavering between so we will see where I land.


These are the two currently on deck for this week. I loved Trixie growing up so I am looking forward to reading at least this one again. And this cover for Nightshade for Warning! So many things that appeal to me – the colors and flowers and the little corgi! I love it.
On Screen and Off Screen:
Not much happening on this front. When we watch tv we are watching old episodes of Brokenwood, one of my favorite shows.
I joined the Analog Life project in January and it is interesting to see how it is has really unraveled in our lives. I will say, my house is a wee bit messier on days now, since all of us have our various projects scattered in little piles here and there as we work on them. My journaling supplies, books, stationary, embroidery, Wyatt’s drawings and colored pencils and paper spread out everywhere, Billy’s leatherworking and painting. I picked up a free puzzle at the library yesterday as well, so we may try that this week too.
We do still watch television though, don’t get me wrong. And I still do scroll and read the internet and watch YouTube videos. Just not as much. I think today we are going to have a family art session and then watch The Phantom Tollbooth with Wyatt. He loved that book so much that I think he will like the movie as well.
I posted a few times last week as well!

Mini Book Reviews and a DNF: The Hounding, Daisies for Innocence, La Vie, and A Bit Much
In-Betweens:
Things sort of began to fall into a routine again last week. I am a creature of routine, and it was good to find a new rhythm. I got the few last loose ends for my mom tied up, and now we just work on getting her recovered. Wyatt and I also did some book shopping and refreshed our Little Free Library from the library book sale. On Wednesday last week my husband also gave me orders to take it easy, so I had fun with all of my various hobbies and hanging out with Wyatt playing. It was a much needed rest day. I wrote a few letters to pen pals, experimented a bit with watercolor, worked on my journals – I have my reading journal and my whatever journal that I am playing around with.
I also made it through my Super Tuesday! It was a tough one, ten wheelchair/car transfers y’all with my little guy, and I was whipped. That was one reason Billy insisted on me resting on Wednesday, and like I said, he was so right. But we got a lot of good stuff done.
I’ll leave you with some randoms from my phone – beware, there will probably be lots of photos of Max and Mouse!







And with that, I will leave you for today. I hope that whatever you do, that you do something that makes you smile!
All of those covers are so pretty! have a great week!

I remember Phantom Tollbooth! My son loved that when he was growing up. We have been watching a show on Amazon called Timeless. Only two seasons but it’s about time travel and you are taken to cool historical events like The Alamo, Lincoln’s assassination, Apollo 11 launch, etc.
Love the thought of your piles for journals and painting and crafting…cause that’s my house !
Hope things are going well with your mom now. You sure had a stressful week and you deserive some downtime. What sort of leather work does Billy do? When I was married before my then husband and i made belts, purses, wallets…..we even set up a stand at a flea market in Vienna Austria and sold some things so we could travel longer.

Two of my favorite library systems are having book sales this weekend, but I’m too worn out to go! sigh
Agnes Aubert is waiting for me. I’m eager to read it.
I hope to have enough energy to join in a bit for Crafternoon today.
