Non-Southern winter is the hardest for me too - it feels like our house virtually doubles in size during the summer because we get to use our outdoor space again! Sometimes in January-March it feels like the walls are closing in on us a teeny bit.... :)
The house basically doubling in size during the summer is SO REAL. I’ll post some photos bc we turn our backyard into our actual living and dining room all summer long, and it’s truly heaven.
I notice, and love, that so many are turning to ritual in their daily lives, in their very own way that becomes so spiritual.
So nicely said! I completely agree. And it cost no money to relish in these little moments of ritual.
