It. Rained. Today.
Heat is alright by me, but only when I want it. Today I woke up to the sound of rain outside my window, it brought an instant smile to my face. The feeling of being cold outside the blanket, the smell of the first rain, curling up your pillows around you and lounging in the comfort of your favorite weather.
My shade was lifted just enough to see the strands winding down my window, to let the grey in and wonder at the fog. When I was in high school I used to walk to class every day in weather similar to this, so it makes me feel like I did then. Young and free and clean and happy.
Feeling nostalgic I out reached my arm to get at my lotions and picked sweet pea, I wore it every day in high school. I put some on and I was transported. I have this amazing ability, and you do too, to take myself out of one time and space and just exist. Without the limitations of how old I am, what day it is, what I 'should' be doing.
I've been changing a lot of things about myself. My diet, my workout, my skin care and I just took a minute in this other reality to take it all in, the effort I've been putting into myself and realized I'm proud of myself. Not in a braggish sort of way, I'm just making an effort and I feel a special joy in it paying off.
All these things together, this beautiful weather, the moment of pride in effort and the cool air around me all culminated into this stellar moment.
I sleep most often in a night gown, but on hot nights I sleep in shirts and my panties. I let my hands wander between cool air and my warm skin. Over curves and under blankets. Around pink while admiring grey.
It was a beautiful morning, and I look forward to more like it.
