1. Waking up late: I've had a string of early mornings, but this morning the sun seemed reluctant to rise and I slept late and warm.
2. Kids in blankets: We haven't turned the heat on yet, but the kids don't care. They've dragged out warm blankets and I woke to find them wrapped in afghans in the living room.
3. My favorite gray sweater: Still smelling faintly of cedar from its summer storage spot. The sweater and two cups of coffee: delicious warmth.
What beautiful things are in your life today?
Getting a few needed errands done early in the morning, leaving the rest of the day free so we can be home...
ReplyDeletea cold, windy, rainy day which means no soccer practice tonight, leaving the evening free so we can be home...
Ingredients for a lovely hot stew and fresh bread for dinner tonight... with everyone at home!
1. Autumn morning with clear skies and a bit of wind.
ReplyDelete2. Newspaper on my doorstep and coffee ready.
3. A new knitting project and a new book to enjoy after school work is done for the day.
Not having to drive Aidan to basketball today OR tommorow.
ReplyDeleteA freshly painted front door (it's red now).
A husband who happily paints front doors when he'd rather be doing something else.
My bed is warm, my pillow deep... today's the day I'm going to sleep!
ReplyDeleteA grande Pumpkin Spice Latte that left a $4.17 hole in my wallet but was worth every warm, delicious sip. Tastes just like fall, and was the perfect treat to enjoy during homeschool today.
ReplyDeleteAlso, the new candle that I lit in my kitchen that has filled my home with the scent of mulberry.
I want to sit under the trees in your header with my camera, a good book, and yet another pumpkin spice latte.
Gorgeous. Simply gorgeous.
I loved reading this, my friend.:) We put flannel sheets on our bed last night and we have lots of cozy blankets on the beds (and couch), too. I love this time of year. I slept in late today, too.:)
ReplyDeleteOh, and I would be even happier with a Pumpkin Spice anything from Starbucks! Yum. I don't like coffee, but for this I will make an exception....:)
Oh, and good books are always beautiful to me. I know you feel the same way...:) Lori
I would love to go to the symphony, and the opera. We live in a small Kansas town right now, so we would have to travel to find one.
