On my bedside table: I have a few more non-holiday reads left in my library pile. Up next is The Gargoyle’s Captive by Katee Robert.

On my tv this week: Continuing our usual shows like Umm Actually, Only Murders in the Building, and Last Week Tonight. We also watched a really forgetful movie with The Jackpot.

Listening to: It’s been a big week for podcast listening. I listened to a ton of Magic Tavern, Nothing is Real, 99PI, You’re Wrong About, and Cabinet of Curiosities.

On my to do list: Mostly we are taking it easy this week, so not a lot on my list. Mostly I’m making all the lists and planning our projects.

What I am creating: Lots of lists. Specifically I was focusing on our Christmas bucket list and Christmas advent for this year. But I also made lots of other lists.

My simple pleasures: Hot tea, jigsaw puzzles, cozy mornings

Looking around the house: Meh. We’ve been home a lot this week due to sickness, but surprisingly the house is in decent condition.

From the camera: Beautiful fungus on a tree at Platte River… I didn’t take any photos this week.
