Weekends: Keeping Warm

It’s been a busy week full of cleaning, organizing, running errands and getting lost (in the most literal sense).

My weekend is still going to be busy, but I hope to grab a few moments for myself and relax with a warm drink and a good book. This weekend is all about keeping warm.

I know some parts of the world are starting to experience spring and for others, summer is just winding down.

But, for us, winter is still very much here.

It’s times like this that I want to slow down and warm up my body and soul. Coffee is my hot drink of choice, but there are times I also love a nice warm cup of tea.

A good book is necessary! I’m delving into a couple of poetry books. Winter Poems selected by Barbara Rogasky is a gem of a book I found in the children’s section of our library. It has 25 wonderful poems about winter from such poets as Shakespeare, Wordsworth, Poe and many others.

The other is an old favorite of mine, Selected Poems & Letters of Emily Dickinson. I pick it up on occasion whenever I need a bit of poetry.

So, find some time this weekend to unwind. Grab a blanket, a warm drink and a book that warms your soul. This weekend is all about keeping warm.

What are you doing this weekend?
