As I look outside my window: The sun is back out after yesterday’s clouds. But the temps are staying lower, so it should be just about perfect.
On my bedside table: The Boyfriend Candidate by Ashley Winstead; Thornhedge by T. Kingfisher
On my tv this week: We finally finished The Misfits! And because we went on a weird 6-degrees-of-separation thing, J remembered the one of the actors was one another show he enjoyed, Preacher. The show is based on a comic book from the 1990s by Garth Ennis who also wrote The Boys. So we had to start watching the show and I had to put the comics on hold at the library.
Listening to: Mostly just a lot of music mixes. Been really digging my Apple Music Radio channel. All my favorites, plus some related bands I am discovering.

Looking around the house: Two weeks until the birthday party and we’ve got to get the main floor under control. Starting on the hallway area this week.
From the camera: New addition to the pumpkin patch. Arthur’s direction to Quentin, “Look like you’re sleeping.” No idea why, but that was the pose.
