When I wake up and there is a fresh blanket of snow on the ground untouch then I'm in love, but then with the slush, the grey dreary days, early night time. I totally get the blues. <BR/><BR/>I'm such a homebody so my favorite part of winter is getting to not feel guilty and enjoy a day at home with some baking and a ton of movies and just enjoying a lazy day. <BR/><BR/>Oh I'm so sad I totally missed the Eddie Ross radio show!High-Heeled Foot in the doorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16510460239869884038noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8030308239398272700.post-25172956093809175622009-02-09T19:25:00.000-05:002009-02-09T19:25:00.000-05:00I am not at all a fan of winter...so, living here ...I am not at all a fan of winter...so, living here in the midwest...I always feel like I am wishing half my life away each year~ Lovely quotes that i'll have to give some thought to each day!!<BR/>Take care~Simple Daisyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07531278651934782016noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8030308239398272700.post-41448003768620527682009-02-09T18:52:00.000-05:002009-02-09T18:52:00.000-05:00Love this post!

I'm totally a winter girl- I love everything about the winter- the snow, the cold, bundling up in winter jackets, etc. My favorite things in the winter is to cook comfort foods, curl up on the couch and catch up on some good reading, sharing a nice bottle of red wine with the BF, and watch movies. There always is spring cleaning, but I find winter the best time to dig into those storage closets and get things organized. My label maker has been getting a good workout lately in the pantry, linen closet, and my tool box.<BR/><BR/>I cant wait to see what you post on for what gets you loving winter.<BR/><BR/>xoxoxLindsBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00548424318705008557noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8030308239398272700.post-39478407324137694382009-02-09T18:41:00.000-05:002009-02-09T18:41:00.000-05:00Lauren, I love your blog!

My husband, however, is a laid-back kinda guy - not quick to make a decision and content to let the world bump around him. I can't tell you how many times I've come to him all flustered (or excited) about some plan I have only for him to somehow (??? really, I don't know how he does it!) slow me down... I find myself thinking, "this can wait". I love it! A little of his ways have rubbed off on me, but of course I'll always keep one foot in tomorrow! <BR/>As for things I like to do in the winter... sitting by my fire and reading a book!DesignTieshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02561438683476880640noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8030308239398272700.post-81741496376640210892009-02-09T14:03:00.000-05:002009-02-09T14:03:00.000-05:00Lauren, those are some very positive and sensible ...Lauren, those are some very positive and sensible thoughts. If we would all spend a little more time in the present wonderfulness, it would make life a lot easier. I constantly worry about the future and sometimes realize that I am wishing my life away when the present moment is perfect. reading a lot of Buddhism and Eckart Tolle helps too. They have a great perspective on the moment, on our ego's, on what really matters.<BR/><BR/>Sometimes I take a computer-free day and that helps too. So much time suddenly opens up....<BR/><BR/><BR/>Great post (and you are so cute pregnant!).<BR/>xoxWindlosthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17014227226507484798noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8030308239398272700.post-77147680646181660422009-02-09T13:04:00.000-05:002009-02-09T13:04:00.000-05:00This time of year (in between seasons) I find myse...This time of year (in between seasons) I find myself preparing for spring. I start getting ready for spring cleaning and actually start on different parts of it... esp cleaning out my closet b/c the consignment store starts taking clothes in February/March for spring and summer. This past weekend the husband and I had a yard weekend- cleaning it up, raking, etc- just to get it ready for a spring work day!Brooke @ Blueprint Blisshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04170896969398305310noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8030308239398272700.post-39853759962413695402009-02-09T12:20:00.000-05:002009-02-09T12:20:00.000-05:00I love winter.
