With the weather we've been having lately, all I seem to want to do is just curl up in a blanket and watch tv. This morning I was convinced that it would be a beautiful sunny day because when I opened my window, I was blinded by the sun. Not thirty minutes later, the sky turned dark and dreary. It saddened me slightly because I just love how clean my carpets looked in the bright sunlight. I was super excited to see the light stream in and then BAM suddenly I'm wondering where the sun went? Oh sun, won't you please come out to play??
The other day I bought some Pumpkin Spice candles from Walmart. I have forgotten how much I LOVE candles! I haven't lit any in so long that I almost forgot how to light them! The second I lit the first candle and got a lovely whiff of that delightful fragrance, I felt like it was finally ok to allow the holidays to come and greet me.
As a result, between the dark and dreary weather and the delightful fragrance and ambiance of my wonderful candles, my house has suddenly become a little homey. It's warm and inviting and I'm in love with everything about this time of year.
So today I finally got back to work on my Quiet Book after my little "vacation" from it. I realize that Christmas is just around the corner, and two weeks before that is my son's first birthday (which is when this gift is intended to be given). I'm feeling the time crunch!! AAAAH!
Here's a teaser picture to help you sit at the edge of your seat in anticipation!
