As most of you know, on Sunday the clocks were set back an hour to account for daylight savings time (having that extra weekend hour was glorious, let me just tell you). When I awake in the morning I’ve noticed it’s no longer dark and dreary, which was previously making it that much more difficult to drag myself out of my warm bed. Unfortunately, as a result, I couldn’t help but notice that the moon was lighting my way on my walk home from work last night, at 5:00 no less. While I’m always one to embrace the change in seasons (if that isn’t obvious), I do find the early darkness a bit much to handle for months on end. My solution around this time is to dream of some place to hibernate for the winter. My ideal place has a fireplace, a steep tobogganing hill and unlimited mugs of rich hot chocolate. When I stumbled upon this home it immediately fit the bill. I feel I could be very happy here, provided I have my friends and family in tow.
I know the feeling, it’s much easier to wake up in the morning now, but the day is so short. This calls for cozy evenings, preferably in front of a fire (I wish!), hot tea and a good book. :)

It’s true! In the mornings I cherish the light, but it is slightly depressing when the sun goes down before I even turn off my computer at the end of the day. Cozy evenings are the perfect solution!
I couldn’t help but notice the same thing yesterday; and I definitely prefer the light in the afternoon, so it doesn’t feel like my entire life is spent at work. I’m not sure if I am now anti-daylight savings time. Does it really help in later months?
Yeah I never really understood the concept much myself. If I remember correctly, I swear I’ve walked TO work in the dark as well
Couldn’t agree more, this seems like a great & cozy placed to be locked in when there is tons of snow outside.
A coworker and i are taking an afternoon walk to try and enjoy the last bits of daylight so we aren’t left feeling cheated at 5 when its dark. So far its a great plan!
I think I’m going to have to start doing that! The past couple of days I’ve eaten lunch at my desk so it has felt like I haven’t even seen the sun!
totally with you – the lighter mornings are great but driving home in complete darkness is a little eerie… I’m screaming over the dining room chairs above draped with a grey furriness – SO divine!!!
Sooooooo cozy and cute.
