Starting the week by writing the Monday Happy List is something I’ve been doing for a while although now I’m moved it to Sunday. It’s a chance for me to sit down and reflect on the things that made me happy in the previous week, as well as to record some of our family adventures. It’s a post I always love to sit down and write.
Sunday Happy Things {Week 442}
Last week I shared the mini books snow globe I made to track the books I read this year. I signed up to the 2023 Goodreads Reading Challenge and I thought this would be a fun way to visually track the books I’ve read.
I’ve been busy stitching the Happiness mini quilt from Pretty Fabrics and Trims. This is the last of the mini quilts I had in my stash and am trying really hard to make the kits I have.
We had a busy week with another Parents Evening and my son’s music concert at his secondary school. Both the kids finished the term and are looking forward to their Easter break.
I enjoyed reading Good Evening, Mrs Craven by Mollie Panter-Downes so much that I ordered another book by her, Minnie’s Room. It’s another book of short stories but these are set in the post-Second World War period.
We started watching The Night Agent on Netflix which is really good. We binge watched a few episodes over the weekend. We also finally got round to watching Avatar: The Way of Water which we all enjoyed.
I never tried stitching but I think I would love it…I should try it for sure.
I have been so tempted to do the mini book globe, but I read a lot so I feel like it would take so much time haha. I enjoyed Avatar too but I still can’t get over how long it is x
I have not seen Avatar yet. I’d like to see it though.
I have not seen Avatar too. Want to see it so interesting. I want to experience the feeling to see an avatar.
The mini books snow globe sounds like a good idea. I would like to get this too!
I love watching movies too on the weekend or whenever I have time. The new show on Netflix is really good and Of course, Avatar is great!
I am so happy that we have reached the Easter holidays now. It means we can all slow down that little bit more. I hope to make time for reading and catching up with some movies too.
Aww I love your stitch…how sweet! It’s going to be beautiful when finished.
I have heard about the Night Agent and will have to check it out as well. Sounds like you have been enjoying some good things. It is nice to find some nice reading materials too.
I absolutely love the vibrant and cheerful feel of your blog! The colorful pictures and interesting content always manage to bring a smile to my face.
I love that you enjoy writing these posts, it shows. Parents evening and your son’s concert must have bern proud moments for sure. Roll on Easter, a nice little break xx
The mini book globe sounds like a fantastic way to keep track of books read! I just may try it. And I keep putting off seeing Avatar. Guess I have to make time for that too! Enjoy the rest of your week!
I so love reading but cannot commit to a schedule as you are but I envy that. Goodreads is one of my favorite platforms and I used to be able to read a huge book in a day… years ago LOL. Love this and I enjoyed this post and congrats on your sons concert too! Love it!
I feel like they load up the end of terms with so many school things to go and do! It’s nice to get to see our children at the end of the school term doing so many activities. 🙂
