Has an extra-big list!
Yes, that is what my Monday is looking like. My list is long… as it looks like it will be much cooler this week than we anticipated. So just to be safe, I am prepping some warmer coats, hats and yes… mittens! Ha! My mantra is there is no bad weather only bad clothing choices! I am also making the suggestion to Steve that he pack some things to keep warm and maybe this year he will listen! Ha!
On top of my usual Monday List, I am thinking about Indigenous People’s Day and I looked over the weekend for a list of books to read…and yay New York Public Library! Of course they have a list! I have read some of the books, but there were a good number I have not!
Finally, Israel is also very much on my mind this morning.
Now, I better get to that long list! See you all back here on Wednesday!
I completely forgot that it is Indigenous People’s Day! We are usually in New England at this time…but not this year (boo-hiss). I did speak with my Aunt who spent the summer in VT and is still there – the leaves are very slow to turn this year. Hope you have a fabulous time in Erie – when do you leave??
We went from the 80s to the 40s in one day, and while I’ve been wishing for fall weather that was a little too fast for me! It finally dawned on me that I really should bring in my lime tree and hibiscus plants if the nighttime temperatures were going to be in the upper 30s, so they are once again acclimating to life indoors.
One thing a knitter is never short on is warm woolen clothing; here’s hoping Steve has learned from his experience last year!
I had extra layers for my walk yesterday and gloves for the first part of my run today — but it feels good to be back in my hand-knit socks! I think I heard we might even get a frost at some point this week. At least we know that, as knitters, we are prepared for a dip in the temperatures!
The weather did turn quickly here, too! Hope you stay nice and toasty while you’re in Erie. (I know ONE of you will . . . ) XO
Project 562 (https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/60343782-project-562) is a book you may find interesting.
Yes! I checked it out from my library a couple months ago. The photography is gorgeous and the stories are beautiful!
Yay for packing warm clothes. You just never know this time of year! Thanks for the NYPL link – they do the best job with providing bookish resources!
I tell my kids the same thing on mornings they think they need a ride to school! It’s 0.4 mi. There is *almost always* the right clothing for that walk 🙂
Happy trip preparation!!
Hope you cracked on well with the list. We have some rather lovely warm and sunny weather at the moment. 22C/72F yesterday. Just lovely.
any weather that allows me to wear wool is a good weather day!!
I hope your Monday was a good one and you got through your long list!
Hooray for wool socks weather. It sounds as if you will be prepared for cooler weather. Stay warm and toasty my friend. And thanks for the link to that list. I recently tried The Lost Journals of Sacajewa but it wasn’t for me. I was a little sad because I think the idea is brilliant. The writing was hard to follow but of course you could find it otherwise.
