The word Cozy never really sticks out to me in the summer especially in 100 degree weather. I always think of Fall or Winter as COZY!
Like the name of my blog, you really just have to embrace each season. I am spending more time indoors this month. I actually love the summer. I love the pool! I love sunscreen and coconut smells, I love getting new pool towels, making fresh lemonade, pool bags, and all things summer.
FOR LIKE A MONTH or TWO! Then I am ready for cool weather. HAHA! Summer in Mississippi is like the armpit of the devil. I am not joking. It is terribly wet humid thick hot sticky heat. May and June feels like a nice summer here and then JULY and AUGUST come and you want to hole up and never come out. Even the pool water is hot and it is no longer enjoyable.
We have to make the most of every season even the hot sticky ones. I am currently hearing some sweet birds chirping out my window. One of my favorite sounds. I love hearing birds. Do you??
I am making this a SUMMER COZY DAY! Kicked off with coffee in bed and Bible reading as well as reading my current spiritual growth book. I just finished 2 Peter today.
Last night, I kicked this off with a wonderful jacuzzi bath and lit a special candle a friend gave me. I used this AMAZING new shower gel from Bath and Body! It smells PERFECT! It is called Cozy Evening. Then curled up to watch the first movie of Downton Abbey.
There are a ton of things I need to and should be doing, but I am just honestly super tired feeling and so I know it's best to listen to that and embrace it and try to do a few small things and rest if I needed.
What is your favorite way to get cozy??? A good book, candle, special treat, a movie, or a nice dinner??
Have a wonderful day, friends!!!

I think comfy couch, nice blanket, rainy weather.
ReplyDeleteThis is such the best cozy!
DeleteA hot mug of tea, enjoyed while cosying up under a blanket after a nice long walk. X
ReplyDeleteOh yes...a nice walk and relaxing can be quiet cozy
DeleteI find a tidy home with a lit candle to be cozy. It doesn't matter if I am reading or watching a show as long it has that cozy feel.
ReplyDeleteHave you been watching the PBS series All Creatures Great and Small. I love it!
I loved it. My whole family did. I also agree a tidy space and candle. Nothing like that
DeleteI love your summer cozy! I am looking forward to cloudy skies with swirling leaves, a cozy throw blanket, a cup of afternoon coffee, a good book, and a fire in the fireplace. It is coming!
ReplyDeleteI am so excited too! That is the perfect cozy!

DeleteI love to wrap up in a blanket with a fan blowing on me and a book to red until I can no longer keep my eyes open. I enjoyed your post and thanks for visiting my blog.
ReplyDeleteThat sounds so good. Thank you for visiting me.
DeleteI had a few business trips in July in the south and the thickness stayed with me. I'd definitely need to have a pool. But, life happens year round and good things are there to savor.
ReplyDeleteHello Sam!!! You are so true!!! Thank you for visiting me!
DeleteThe bread looks fabulous! Hello from the Mississippi Delta! It's sweltering hot here as well. I think I will be glad to see cooler temps in a few more months!
