Twenty days into my break. The longest blog break I’ve had in over three years. It’s been refreshing and different. We’ve gotten up to all sorts of goodness.
A small peak into how we’ve spent November:
Birds: feeding, identifying, and enjoying up close (but not photographing – dang those dirty windows!), all thanks to the renovations we pulled off this fall (still incomplete, but I say good enough for now).
Creating with the kids: watercolors, beginning form drawing, chalk and oil pastels, finger knitting, singing, storytelling, piano playing, bath bomb making, handwork with clay.
Reading: too many books (children and adult) to mention in point form. But all fantastical and inspiring.
Lurking: on far too many amazing blogs and sites to mention here for the moment also.
Nursing: a poor sick baby girl with nasty croup, which thankfully is on its way out and we even managed to avoid going into the clinic.
Visiting and playing: with friends, often.
Working on: my new blog site, sporadically,
Hoping: to have it up early December.
Really hoping your November has been full of all kinds of goodness, too. See you soon.
Sounds like a perfect brake, hope you are feeling restored. xx
