I’m loving this newsletter! So happy that the kids are into Harry Potter, I wonder if any Halloween costumes will be inspired by them watching it.

I don’t know how you did a whole week sleeping on the floor… I prefer a higher bed so I can just swing my legs onto the floor and get out of bed easier (yes I’m old LOL).

The landscaping looks fantastic, looking forward to seeing more on the vlog.

It’s Thanksgiving here in Canada this weekend so time will be spent with family.

Enjoy the rest of you weekend, will see you at Vino & Vent on Sunday!

I love HP too! The books were great (one of my favorite series) and it’s one of the best adaptations to movies I have seen! I will have to rewatch them this fall too! Sad that JK went around the bend.

I agree a bedroom without a frame and dresser seems bare and very campy! I am a glamper, lol! Do check wyfair as a pervious commenter said, they have a few good deals for bedroom stuff.

Also, the front yard looks great, PJ did a fantastic job!

Sounds like the fall break has been so much fun. I’m sure there’ll be a time where you also feel holiday house like home, and you’ll love both your beds!

Speaking of beds… when we moved to Beacon, NY some weeks ago we wanted to change our queen-size bed for a king-size one. And of course budget was tight because it also means new mattress, new sheets, new comforter, new pillows… and all the costs of the move itself! We found an affordable one in Wayfair that I assembled by myself as a surprise to my husband, and it turned out not only easy to do it, but also the bed is very good and beautiful. Look for “Grady Solid Wood Platform Bed”, maybe you like it too!

Wow, clearly I can’t do short comments 🫣 sorry!

I have to say that given JK Rowling’s virulent transphobia, I am pretty much all over all things Harry Potter. The last thing she deserves is more money coming in from that franchise. I still have the books, and I admit, I enjoyed them, but if she had been saying the things she says now when they were coming out, I wouldn’t have bought them. On a more positive note, the third season of Heartstopper goes to some darker places, but it does so incredibly well, resulting in the strongest season so far. And when you watch it, pay special attention to episode 4, which is simply brilliant in every way.

I totally get that. if these DVDs weren't purchased almost two decades ago, I don't know if I would buy them either. but then again, is it okay to separate art from the artist? I think about this question a lot. I can't wait for ep 4!!! thanks Lane!!

Heartstopper had me crying from episode 2, we just started a GSA club this week at school. I hope the students embrace it, I see a few who need that extra safe space. I’m ready for season 4.

PJ is just great at everything, especially real estate, huh?! The yard out front makes the house more homey and is beautiful already. I love the “looking forward to getting back in the gym and drinking less wine, probably” 😂 portion of this weekend edit the best. 💙
