Bits of Joy

I really like mornings that my classes don't start too early, so that I don't have to get up right away.  I don't really like sleeping in, but I appreciate being able to wake up naturally, without an alarm clock.  My absolute favourite thing about this, though, is being able to lay in bed for ten or fifteen minutes and actually appreciate how warm and cozy my bed is, an get myself mentally prepared for the day before I have to get up.

Along the same lines, I like going to bed a little bit early so I can snuggle in and read for a few minutes before going to sleep.

I love stepping into a hot shower and feeling the water relax all my muscles.

I like a cup of tea when I get home from class/work.  Nothing fancy, just a standard orange pekoe with a splash of milk and a bit of sugar.  It's my comfort drink, and it's the most soothing thing to help me relax.

Another thing that brings me joy, though only in the winter, is those first few steps coming into a warm building after being outside in the cold.

Those are all of the happy things I can think of right now, but: happy TFIOS day!  Sarah and Rachel, I hope you enjoyed your events today!
