Snow Day Luxuries

January 6, 2025 by Kelly Leave a Comment

I currently live in Southeast Kanas and we received a small heaping of snow over the weekend. While some nearby cities are buried in feet of snow, we’re dealing with an inch of powder and ice that covers most everything.

It’s really beautiful, but a pain in the butt to be outside. Since my 8am meeting was cancelled, here are my favorite snow day luxuries to enjoy:

  • Snuggles with the puppy, especially after he bravely goes outside to pee and has cold feet.
  • A hot coffee or chocolate in front of the fire place.
  • Sitting in my most comfortable chair with a few big blankets and journaling.
  • Reading a book and being grateful for the heat and power.
  • A long, hot bath with bubbles.
  • Using the good lotion to keep skin hydrated.
  • New windows which keep the drafts out and warmth in.

Now that so many people work from home, it’s easier than ever to power through and work work work, even on a snow day. Compromise by taking at least an hour to yourself to enjoy being out of the bad weather and relaxing.

Tonight when I go to bed I will layer up my quilts and cover them with a cheap throw (because puppy isn’t fully housebroken yet!) and then snuggle in to sleep filled with appreciation.

I’ve never been homeless but I have lived through rough winters with no heat, broken windows and negative temps. It has gotten so cold in my home that the Keurig stopped working and the olive oil froze solid. Now I try to remember and appreciate how far I’ve come and the warmth, always the warmth.
