Introverting with You

Sometimes with the holidays, all one wants to do is cozy up with a steaming mug of coffee, tea, or hot cocoa and a book--and excuse all else.  Except for that one person who understands you most.  I know that I do, with my husband.  Socialization in small quantities does me best.  So with the holidays nearing, and whatever your plans may be, I hope you have a wonderful Christmas.  (Yes, I did indeed create the above book page art with this festive season in mind!)

As always, stay warm and kind...

Chocolate and Coffee

It's a chocolate and coffee kind of day, and today I'm milking it for all it can give, for come tomorrow, it's back to holiday season preparations.  Little Broken Hearts in the background, with breaks of gleaming silence, is the soundtrack to a day like this--tiny minimalist beats and a honeyed voice; quiet interspersed between the hum-bum-drum cacophony of my meandering mind.  A consistent rainstorm stills my mind, urges me to examine things, to read things.  Sips of coffee, nibbling on chocolate, and aural breaks here and there make today especially lovely for thinking...I really have to read more often.
