Good Morning!

I'm really, really loving my get outside to greet the sun routine. 

The snow and light are so pretty today.

So far I've been perfectly cozy and warm.

I have my Uggs and warm pants in a mudroom drawer by my 

hat coat and gloves, so it's easy to just pull everything on over my exercise clothes or my pajamas.

This morning I got through my puzzles (do I sound 80?!) and Instagram really fast,

so brought my book outside to read for a while.

I'm averaging about 45 minutes.

I've been so productive this week, I'm almost sad to leave for our trip and mess up the schedule.

But then I realized I've been so productive because I am leaving on a trip-- 

working against a deadline. 

That made me feel better.

I'm trying to keep up some of my first of year habits I've enjoyed-- 

stretching, exercise, greeting the morning sun, reading and editing.

I won't worry about my sunroom routine while I'm on vacation,

but Dan and I will probably listen to a Come Follow Me podcast together.

I'm taking The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe Series to read.

Ever since studying Revelations, I've been thinking about re-reading The Last Battle.

It's such a great metaphor for Armageddon and end of the world.
