A Cozy Day at Home

Do you ever have those days that start off slow and you just can't seem to get it rolling? Today was one of those day for me. I had decided last night to work from home today, since one of my classes was to be a "work class", which to me works better if I'm in the comfort of my own space. Since I had made that decision last night, it was a struggle to get up in the morning. I eventually got up around 8:30 and plodded around for a few hours, doing virtually nothing until mid-morning. Sometimes those slow starts are refreshing, and other times you end up just feeling sorry for yourself. I was of the mopey sort today. 

My mom dropped in for a visit late morning, and then we ran a few errands together and went for lunch. Once I returned home, I got cracking on assignments and household chores. I wrote up my usual little to-do list and started checking off the boxes. I guess I just needed some company and a change of scenery in order to get motivated! 

Here are a few things that made me smile today and helped to lift the sleepy, mopey, cranky, unmotivated fog...

My magazine subscription to Style at Home arrived and the cover alone is a healthy dose of colour!

I went to the post office to pick up a package from an Etsy seller in Lithuania for our nursery. So cool!

After I tidied up our kitchen and did the dishes, I was able to appreciate the little doses of colour here and there.

My happiest kitchen cupboard, filled with cheery bowls and well-loved cookbooks

I documented some of my creative process for an assignment that I have due on Monday. Adorable veggies for the win!

What about you? How was your day? Do share... I hope I'm not the only one that has days that feel a little off.

Happy Thursday!
