CELEBRATING INCLEMENT WEATHER AND THE COZINESS OF STAYING INSIDE or SINGING IN THE RAIN!

CELEBRATE SAYING INSIDE?

After being stuck inside because of Covid-19 shutdowns and restrictions, you may wonder what I think about staying inside on purpose. Well, it's one thing to be forced to and another to choose to do all those homey things, like snuggling - even if it's just you and your dog - or staying in bed reading a good book under a warm blanket. You might also be like me and just desire some time alone without interruption. With no one else to bother or interrupt or consider, you may listen to music you haven't in a while or catch up with old friends on the phone or shut the phone off and enjoy good old fashioned silence.

I love alone time, though I don't get it as often as I'd like. Love going for a walk in the rain under a sturdy umbrella once in a while. The earth smells fresh - or wormy - and it's like being a kid again to get your boots into the puddles. As for the snow, I don't foresee living in the snow belt. It's been some time since I built a fort or snowman but I'm willing if the opportunity presents itself.

We need to make the best of our situation, whatever it is, and if travel to a warm resort or the other end of the world where it's now summer, is not in your cards, finding beauty in a snowfall, wrapping up in a warm sweater that you got out of storage, or making a slow-cooker of chili and having a couple friends over for Sunday night dinner may be just the thing to do. Count your blessings and love who you love.

Let's be open to light heartedness and fun this holiday season!
