A slow cabin day, books, fireplace & binge watching
Today was all about burning wood, the fireplace, the smell of it lingering in the cold air, that quiet comfort it gives. I love that feeling.
The day didn’t start ideally. We woke up to a small kitchen accident and ended up searching for the nearest hospital for an emergency check. Thankfully it wasn’t serious, just one of those moments that shakes the morning a bit.
The weather turned out warm and sunny: normally something I’d enjoy, but today it felt strange, not fitting the mood of this little getaway. I was so ready for a gloomy day...
Still we leaned into coziness:
- binge-watched the new Stranger Things season
- ate while watching Gilmore Girls (always a safe choice)
- played a board game called Emerge, which had lovely illustrations and a cute story
I didn’t have much energy left for anything creative, but I did flip through the books I brought, especially Tiny Experiments, which I’m still really enjoying. It’s a reminder I often need:
better done than perfect.
It’s a mindset that’s shaped everything I’ve built in the last years, and it keeps working.
Today, I let myself just go with the flow and do nothing productive, and maybe that was exactly the point.
