It’s my favorite kind of Sunday. Cloudy but not rainy, cool but not cold. It would be a perfect day for exploring my new neighborhood or finding a park to sit and knit in, but I haven’t been feeling well lately, and walking around is really the last thing I want to do. Instead, I’m [...]

Honestly, it’s been a busy week and I’m glad to be home, getting chores done and enjoying my little space. I’m still not over the joy of having a room of ones own.
