bliss list ~ january

Is January seriously over?  What a weird month!  Weird because out of the 31 days, I worked a total of 16.  Nuts.  Which leads me to my first bliss list item...

Snow Days ~ After coming back from holiday break we had 4 snow days.  We'd get rolling with a week and then a day (or two or three) off.  While I don't look forward to making up these days, it was nice staying in comfy clothes and playing with Nora all day.  Nora couldn't believe it when she woke up on our third snow day in a row!


Tea ~ I was having a conversation with a friend at work during lunch and we talked about our love for tea this winter.  Then we both realized what we probably loved most about drinking tea was holding the warm mug in our hand.  Still, in addition to holding a warm mug, I do love sipping the warm stuff.  One of my season favorites is Celestial Seasonings' Candy Cane Lane.  It's pepperminty enough to allow it to extend past Christmas.


Slippers ~ I love leaving my shoes at the door and wearing slippers this time of the year.  My feet get cold pretty easily and it helps the slip my feet into something a little warmer.  I've already worn out one pair this season.  Oops!
Gummy Smiles ~ Nora smiles so much more these days.  I remember when she was an itty baby and I often had wondrous thoughts of when she would smile more often.  We're finally there.  She smiles at us in the morning, when we play with her, pick her up from the sitter's...pretty much anytime we look at her she will smile.  It's so sweet.


Not a big bliss list this month but it explains my month loves quite well...keeping warm and smiling with Nora!

I have been drinking the same tea, and a few others, all winter. It is surly "bliss!"
