Hello from the artic circle! ♥
It's been so cold here this week! (the temperature this morning read 16 degrees!) I'm currently wearing two cardigan sweaters and feeling cozy, but oh my is it cold out! We are certainly in the dog days of winter here in New England. Thankfully today, despite the cold temps, the sun is shining. It's so nice to see some rays of sunshine coming in through the window. There is still tons of snow on the ground. It's frozen solid now. It's very "crunchy" walking around outside.
So how was your week? Mine went very well and was productive. I got all my errands done on Tuesday and I'm happy to have gotten my doctor appointment over with. The rest of the week I worked, paid bills, cleaned, did laundry, ect. I was "adulting" hard, which is never fun but always feels good with things get checked off the to-do list. I'm happy it's Friday! Rob has tomorrow off. We are going out for coffee to my favorite coffee shop in the morning and then spending a relaxing weekend recharging our batteries. It's going to be too cold to do anything else! I'm craving a pot of homemade soup (and bread) so that will be on the agenda tomorrow as well!
Today I thought I'd share a few pictures of things that made me happy this week. Just little snippets of things that brought me joy and corners of my home. It's cold and chaotic out there. I much prefer it in here....♥
YAY for sunshine! ♥
Happy to see signs of life. Spring is coming! ♥
Our cozy back room ♥
There is no TV in this room which is nice when you want to read or gaze out at the river.
My mom painted this table many years ago ♥
A cozy reading chair ♥
A Christmas gift that I'll be using all year! LOL
Getting ready for Valentine's Day. More to come ♥
I read this book every winter for inspiration ♥
Another Christmas gift that I love! ♥
Currently in my bedroom...♥
This was my mom's.
I put it on my nightstand.
I wish I was a hat person, or I would be wearing it ♥
Pretty things ♥
Books that make me happy. Dreaming of faraway places ♥
And finally back to the kitchen...
Plants are doing well this winter!
Another Christmas gift from a faraway friend! ♥
No need to put away any snowman decor just yet!
I hope you all had a nice week and are doing something you love this weekend. Whether it be out and about or just staying home and watching a movie. You know where I'll be!
Stay cozy friends! Thanks for visiting today!
Byeeeee! Xx

















I love that so many of the things that makes you happy are so cozy. :) I love that backroom. I think I'd live out there! Your Mom's hat was the cutes! My Mom wears ones like that too. I bet you'd look so pretty in it with your dark hair - just sayin. 😉
ReplyDeleteBut I especially love the hygge book (I loved that one) and your cute Mickey socks!
Blessings on your weekend ahead. Stay warm and cozy. xo
Donation Benefits Giveaways
ReplyDeleteI hope this message finds you in good health. I am pleased to extend to you an offer of a personal donation in the amount of €1,500,000.00 intended to support your individual growth and the pursuit of your goals. This grant is made with confidence in your integrity, talent, and the potential I see in your future contributions.

This could take many forms—organizing a community workshop, mentoring youth in your area, launching a neighborhood improvement initiative, or even creating a public awareness campaign around a cause you’re passionate about.

To ensure transparency and shared commitment, I kindly ask that you provide a short written outline of how you intend to fulfill this obligation within 60 days of accepting the Donation. I will not require formal reporting beyond that, but I do trust you will carry it out in good faith. It is my belief that when support is given with mutual accountability, its impact multiplies.
