    A Cozy Bedtime Reading of Little House on the Prairie — Chapter 17 & 18 Feb 27, 2024
    Show notes

    Settle in for a gentle, unhurried reading of Laura Ingalls Wilder's classic story of a pioneer family's journey by covered wagon to a new home on the Kansas prairie. Follow along as the family builds a new life together, surrounded by the quiet rhythms of the land — perfect for winding down and drifting off to sleep.

    Historical Context Note: This classic story from the late 1800s reflects the cultural perspectives, terminology, and survival practices of the era in which it was written. Some of these vintage elements do not align with modern values and may be uncomfortable for some audiences. We present this unedited tale strictly for historical accuracy and to encourage thoughtful reflection on our past.

    Sweet dreams!
    Joanne ❤

    Vintage Bedtime Story: Bertie's New Year Jan 02, 2024
    Show notes

    Welcome back sleepy listeners! I hope you had a safe and happy holiday season :) I wanted to take this opportunity to thank you for your wonderful support throughout this past year! Also, a very special thank you to my Drift Off Premium subscribers! You make my heart happy and you help me stay inspired to keep this podcast going! Thank you from the bottom of my heart!! Whatever makes you happy...whatever brings you joy...may it all be yours in 2024!
    Tonight we're going to embark on a journey of relaxation as we prepare both mind and body for a restful snooze. I will be reading a delightful vintage bedtime story by Canada’s most treasured authors, Lucy Maud Montgomery. She’s the author of the beloved “Anne of Green Gables” series and her work encapsulates her talent for creating vivid imagery while evoking a sense of nostalgia. As we welcome a brand new year, I’ve chosen to read Bertie’s New Year and I hope you enjoy it!
    Happy New Year my sleepy listeners! May you have the sweetest dreams the whole year through! Cheers to you all!
    Your friend,
    Joanne
