Bathroom wallpaper is here and other things on my mind this week including the vintage toothbrush holder I got, the parenting book I’m reading, the legacy of one home, a new way of looking at abortion, a standup comedy special and a TV show I recommend, the tiny item I wish I had when I carried a purse, Indigenous architecture, San Diego seeds, a retractable garden hose, a reminder to check my Instagram, the recipe to save our backyard, a Halloween sneak preview, Heardle, and my monthly playlist.

Margot is getting an upgraded room to make space for baby sister in the nursery.
With an additional family member, we want to shuffle the rooms of our 3-bedroom house around. The one off the living room was being used as my home office, so now it’s time to convert it into an actual bedroom. The initial thought was to give this room to baby sister and keep Margot in her room. But we ultimately decided to put the baby in the room designed to be a nursery, then convert the home office into a space designed for a bigger kid. Plus, the office has more windows, and is right off the living room (Margot’s playroom) so it’s better suited for all the daytime play, whereas the single-window nursery is cozier for lots of daytime naps.
