…but i can’t. well, i could, but it would be so miz. 33 degress and cloudy. bluh.
so, really, it’s time for a happy little listy.
these post-holiday+pre-sb2k10 months have to have their perks, right?

things to enjoy before the warm weather comes to play:
- hot herbal tea – ohh, tea. super love tea. with my whole heart. always. but once it gets hot outside, it’s just not quite the same to get cozy with a hot drink.
- valentines day – hearts and pink and love are so fun! and it’s okay if you’re single, just buy yourself a nice little gifty.
- home projects – i want to paint our fireplace. reeeeally bad. and for some little crafty ideas, i know just who to call.. my girl martha!
- scarves & uggs – some cold weather favs. i miss them when they’re not so needed. of course, if you’re somewhere like cali you can flip down your uggs and throw on your stylish lightweight scarf. i still do that some, but in the nashville heat it’s really not necessary to wear much of anything at all.. ‘cept for modesty’s sake.
- indoor stuff – who wants to tour a museum or watch dvds when you could be sun basking? exactly. now is the time.
- planning – spring break planning. wedding planning. i actually didn’t get to have a spring break during my wedding planning.. junior year at auburn. so in exchange for one [1] college spring break, i will now take as many regular life spring breaks as i need. yes! my house, my rules.
so there! fabulous things to focus on to get through until happier temperatures.
happy living in the moment. [and happy superbowling!]

I'm okay with winter until after the holidays. It's so bummy. I guess I need to appreciate having soup right now.
