The last couple of weeks have been so full of work that I
have barely had the time to appreciate this wonderful season of autumn that has
come upon us. Morning chills and mists, scarves and warm coats, waking up in
the dark and reading on the bus to work in an early morning twilight.
Some days are grim, yes, and I am busy, yes, but there is
always a little bit of time to appreciate the little things in life that make
me comfy and happy. The nice woolly jumper that I wear in the evenings to keep
me warm, the soft lighting in our bathroom, going out to have late breakfast on Saturday mornings and sipping a flavoured latte whilst discussing the events of the previous and following week or just sitting in front of the
computer screen reading other people’s blog posts whilst stuffing my face with
boršč soup and nice dense
bread.
We had some friends visiting earlier this month and even though it was incredibly hard to fit everything into our busy schedules, I am incredibly happy for those couple of days that showed me that friendships can still thrive even when you're hundreds of miles away from people.
