A cozy day

Here I sit, on a very rainy Wed. writing my first blog post.
Mom is shopping, and dad is at work, so I have the house to myself.  Everything is so still and quiet, except for the rain hitting the east window sill, and the tick-tock of the grandfather clock behind me.  Due to the overcast skies, the house is rather dark.  I have a candle on the candle warming pad, which makes the house smell like a rustic/country gift shop.  I love days like today.
So until we meet again, I hope you all enjoy this 'coffee cup with a good book' kind of day. :)
