I posted this post and then released that I actually didn't like the way I had set it out. Maybe it was a shit topic to do a "How To" on, or maybe I'm just not very good at "How To's" - who knows. Either way, I didn't feel right and I needed to changed it. I knew when I started this blog that I only wanted to blog about things that I was actually interested in. It's so easy to get caught up in the blog world and churn out crap that you don't care about, or try and produce "content" that you don't really know that much about. So I'm going to try and stop falling into that trap, and if I do stumble into it - I'll try and fix it. Like now. Learn from your mistakes people, you don't have to be somebody you're not.
Anyway, although I am a #1 Summer fan, I quite like miserable days, even though they are miserable. I like the fact that I can stay in bed longer. This doesn't mean that I'm less productive, as I still answer my emails, do work and often read blogs, but it just means I get to cherish the warm of my duvet for a little longer. Who doesn't love that? I also take comfort in the fact that I don't have to go outside. Unlike some people, I don't get Cabin Fever very easily. If I am comfortable in my surroundings I can comfortable for a long time. That being said, if I haven't left my house in about four days I start to get a little stir crazy, but on miserable days? Not leaving your house is a-okay!
On miserable days things tend to be sluggish and grungy, that vibe is really soul destroying especially in Winter because I'm sure I suffer from SAD. But something that makes that go away? Fairy lights. My obsession for lights knows no bounds, and fairy lights are probably the cheapest but also best decoration that can make any room look better, I just love 'em. I also love candles. They light up a room and make it smell even nicer than usual. Win win if you ask me.
The last thing that helps be battle through any day, but especially miserable ones is hot drinks. I don't care what your weapon of choice is (mine's tea, thanks!), if you can tell me you can get through a super cold day without a hot drink then you must teach me your ways. I'm not human if my day doesn't start with a cuppa, so I don't believe you're one if yours doesn't.
I hope when you encounter a miserable day, you remember that they can have their positives too. Maybe I'm weird for liking miserable days at home, but sometimes it's nice just to get a chance to relax. It's like have a sick day as a kid where all you'd watch is cartoons. You'd love it for the first two days but by day three you'd be bored and wanna be back with your friends. Maybe I'm just a child still.
