A lot of people get the blues in January. Not me. I love it.
The craziness of the holiday season is over. I have a few gift cards to spend.
The plans with friends dwindle down to once every few weeks instead of
something every weekend. We get back into a healthy eating routine, and my
family hibernates in sweats and hoodies, under blankets watching tv cuddled up
on the couch with a very often loudly snoring bulldog.
Plus the chances of snow get higher this time of year too. I
love the snow. Not so much going out and playing in it anymore, but getting the
little guy dressed and all toasty, then making him hot chocolate when he comes
in and his cute little face is all red. I love seeing my mom’s old wooden
drying rack we always used growing up, set up in my dining room in front of the
heater vent drying everything out for the next round of snow play. The lunches
on these days always taste better too. Something about grilled cheese and
homemade soup on snowy days makes me happy. I cook a lot on days that it snows.
Thankfully for the most part if the little guy is off school my work is closed
too. But considering the temperatures
here recently, we won’t be getting any of the white stuff any time soon.
Everyone keeps saying it will happen, but I’m not holding my breath.
This post made me realize I love January too!
