bliss

Day 38

I woke up at 7:30am today and stayed in bed for two hours, tumblring and youtubing, and finally got up to look out the window to see how much it snowed overnight. When I went downstairs, my brother was putting on his snow gears, all excited to play in the snow,  and my mother was still in bed, on her iPad, booking plane tickets for my grandparents. And I guess my stomach couldn't handle being empty for two hours. It started growling really loud, so I made myself nice warm oatmeal.
It's these little things that make you really happy. It's these little things that you appreciate the most -- waking up in your cozy bed, waking up to your loving family, and having warm breakfast on a snowy day. I was in complete bliss this morning as you can probably tell, but I haven't felt this happy in awhile. It's the little things. It really is.

You can see my little snowman!

Around noon, I finally had energy to get up and shovel our driveway (which is completely covered in snow again because it started snowing again). I didn't want to go outside at all today because I hate cold weather, but this is like once in two years kinda thing, so I decided to go out and jump in the snow. It snowed about 5 inches? It probably snowed a lot more by now (it's almost 9pm). After shoveling, I figured that I should probably play in the snow because I was already in the cold (so screw cold weather) and what kid doesn't like to play in the snow?! ..wait, I'm an adult. Hahaha. Anywho, I built a snowman, which my brother ruined after I came back in the house. After all that playing in the snow, I "made" boxed chicken noodle soup from Trader Joe's for my brother and me. It tasted so good after playing in the cold. :') I might shovel our drive way again in an hour or so.

So now it's 12:41am and yes, I shoveled our driveway again. After the hard work, I decided to take a walk because it was so pretty and calm outside. While I was taking my walk and enjoying my alone time, my brother just had to come out and join me. Sigh. But we played snowball fight and it was fun, so I guess after all it wasn't all that bad.

Now I'm just relaxing and watching itsJudyslife's blog. Gooooooodnight!
