Cozying in

I haven't felt much like doing much over this break at least not outside of the house.....we celebrated the holiday and then have kinda hunkered in.....I have so much to do within these walls, and being off affords me the space to do it. And the kids have needed some down time too.....I am so grateful I get to be with them during break and cozy in.......I cleaned out all my clothes to donate, and plan on hitting the kids rooms too. Readying stuff for a yard sale, or to sell, and donate clothes that no longer fit them too.....I plan on finishing painting my dining room today......some of my appliances have made it back in the kitchen so yippeee! My dining room was housing so much and slowly but surely it is all going back and the new is emerging......I am in love with my kitchen already.....it will really be such a beautiful space with such heart and that makes me happy......it was a necessary space to be able to sell one day, and I was thinking the other night that this kitchen will give me the will and desire to stay here a few years longer till our new home appears..:) wherever that will be......and I will enjoy every moment, and entertain again, and use it as a catalyst to share special times with family and friends here......I have missed that so much ....it has been an exciting process, some stress at times, but overall a lovely experience. I am hoping next week to get the kids out a couple of times and we can do a few outings, but as for this weekend I think wrapping up stuff is the idea. I also want to take Christmas down. I missed all my trees this year but I won't when I am putting it away lol ;-) it will be much easier than in years past so there is that......maybe tomorrow for that, and we can enjoy it another day......I have learned to follow my inclinations. Not forcing myself to be out there, and busy when I am not really feeling it. And using this space and time to catch up and relax some.....I am looking forward to the new year with such excitement! I am curious where my life will be next Christmas, I plan on having a lot living in between the now and then, and I look forward to decorating next year already lol ;-) Hope you are all enjoying your breaks too whatever you are doing, and Happy Saturday 😊
