Brrrr!
As the temps dip ever closer to the winter average around here ~
(which is just waaaay too cold for this girl)
and after experiencing our first 3" snowfall on November 10 ~
(which is waaaay too early for that kind of stuff to be happening,
but thank goodness it melted the next day)
but thank goodness it melted the next day)
my thoughts tend to shiver their way toward things that will keep me warm.
I want to surround myself with thick, snuggly, bury-yourself-in-it
coziness.
Things that warm my fingers and toes by just looking at them.
A little Christmas in the guest room |
Like the vintage French basket full of yarn at the end of the bed
in the guest room...
I just want to crawl right into that pile of angora and chenille
and hibernate for the winter.
{forgetting all about the cold, snowy winds outside my windows
and dream of sinking my toes in the warm sand on my little island beach down south..}
My favorite cashmere-blend gloves and scarf...
and a new pair of warm, furry snowboots
will unfortunately
be getting a lot of use in the months ahead.
Stay cozy.
Old Man Winter's knockin' on the door.

ReplyDeleteMy mom grew up in an old farmhouse in Michigan. They were not insulated very well back then. She remembers waking up with snow on the floor of her room because it came in through the cracks in the walls and around the window. Brrrrr!!!
