life of charmings

love, family, happiness

February 7, 2010 in blah· little lists· the little things

winter blahs

ohh, the holidays are long gone but warm weather happies are nowhere in sight.
i am more than ready to plop myself by the pool and bask in the hot rays of UV & vitamin D…

…but i can’t. well, i could, but it would be so miz. 33 degress and cloudy. bluh.

so, really, it’s time for a happy little listy.
these post-holiday+pre-sb2k10 months have to have their perks, right?

things to enjoy before the warm weather comes to play:

  • hot herbal tea – ohh, tea. super love tea. with my whole heart. always. but once it gets hot outside, it’s just not quite the same to get cozy with a hot drink.
  • valentines day – hearts and pink and love are so fun! and it’s okay if you’re single, just buy yourself a nice little gifty.
  • home projects – i want to paint our fireplace. reeeeally bad. and for some little crafty ideas, i know just who to call.. my girl martha!
  • scarves & uggs – some cold weather favs. i miss them when they’re not so needed. of course, if you’re somewhere like cali you can flip down your uggs and throw on your stylish lightweight scarf. i still do that some, but in the nashville heat it’s really not necessary to wear much of anything at all.. ‘cept for modesty’s sake.
  • indoor stuff – who wants to tour a museum or watch dvds when you could be sun basking? exactly. now is the time.
  • planning – spring break planning. wedding planning. i actually didn’t get to have a spring break during my wedding planning.. junior year at auburn. so in exchange for one [1] college spring break, i will now take as many regular life spring breaks as i need. yes! my house, my rules.
so there! fabulous things to focus on to get through until happier temperatures.
happy living in the moment. [and happy superbowling!]

    I'm okay with winter until after the holidays. It's so bummy. I guess I need to appreciate having soup right now.
