Been doing a whole lot of this lately, but more like the we have a baby version which is not sitting down until I’m actually lying down and going to bed at 8:30pm, haha. We recently started looking at houses in Vermont again so I’m just over here daydreaming about fall foliage and snowy winters in Woodstock. We put it on hold for a while, but the longer we’ve been home, the more we realize we probably aren’t going to be traveling (by plane anyway) anytime soon. Aside from everything with COVID, I just don’t see us traveling (far) with a baby. I know people do it all the time, but I don’t think we’d be very good at it. Hopefully eventually we’ll get to California to visit my mom and brothers, but otherwise we want to stay close to home and be able to bring the dogs and cat if we do travel. Who knows, maybe a Cozy Ranch North edition is in our future. In the meantime we are enjoying being at home and working on the never ending list of projects we have here. Wishing all of you a good weekend.

Sort of on a true crime kick again, it cycles back and forth. But in the last week I’ve watched I’ll Be Gone in the Dark and Unsolved Mysteries. Which lead me to re-read this interview I did with Rachel Monroe, if you missed it and love true crime, definitely take a look. (C)
