Hello everybody! Last week was a better week for Wyatt – yay! It was a much better week – we got out of the house here and there, including a really cool trip to the Ottawa National Wildlife Refuge in Ohio, which was spectacular, and Wyatt got some actual relaxing down time to recuperate while I caught up on some things around the house, including finally starting some homeschool planning for next year. I am super excited already about some of the things we are going to be doing! We also got to sit on the porch at the library, which I love. I think my dad is going to visit this week and watch Wyatt so I can get out for some “me time” and my plan is to grab a coffee, my library book, and read on the porch here for a bit. It was nice to hang here with Wyatt though for a minute or two.
Read Last Week:
I read Flower’s book Prose and Cons and just devoured it, but now I want it to be fall. Lol. I am saving the next one in the series until wintertime, since it looks like it takes place around the holidays. I did however, put another series by Flower on hold at the library..
When I finished Prose and Cons, I wasn’t feeling like a new book really, but I was looking for some lighthearted comfort and remembered how much I loved the MG book Gone-Away Lake last year. So I grabbed that copy off of Wyatt’s shelves and started rereading it. Yep, just as good as it was last year. I love this book honestly. It is a little old fashioned in some parts and in the way of the Little House series, maybe just a few problematic phrases but overall it is full of adventure and whimsy. Wyatt is not really a fan of it yet, he prefers books with animal characters, but that is ok. I mean, my favorite book is Watership Down, so it tracks.
Reading This Week:
I am excited about this one, since it is set in Northern Michigan, near Traverse City, one of my favorite places to visit.

Tuesday Morning Coffee Catch Up
Watching and Listening:
Nothing too exciting right now on this front – we finished up When Calls the Heart (just in time for the new season to begin, yay!), and are working on rewatching Death in Paradise. We tried to start White Lotus but for some reason that night Wyatt was being a pill about going to bed so we switched it off to come back to a different night, and then just haven’t gotten back to it. I was enjoying it though!
As for listening, we have been just all over the place. We have been listening to a lot of Billy Strings, the National Parks, and occasionally some Jim Croce or James Taylor or Carole King. It sometimes depends on the weather what we listen to.
Anyway, that is about it from around here! How are you all doing?
