Cozy Things and Quiet Moments

Thanksgiving was a little less busy this year, but no less special for having few places to go.  While I know that the day after Thanksgiving comes with the Black Friday tradition of huge crowds and huge sales, I have my own tradition of taking a long walk in the quietest woods available.
The sales can be very helpful for those on a budget, I know a number of people who have included the camping out and fighting the crowds as part of their family time and made it an annual tradition, but I quite prefer this little ritual of mine.
It isn't just the walk I love, though taking this time of reflection does help me mentally prepare for the the busyness of the upcoming holidays.  I love getting ready for my walk, pulling thick skirts and cozy cardigans down out of the closet and wrapping up in them for a nice stroll in the chilly autumn air is just as much a part of the enjoyment for me as the walk itself.
With the holidays and the colder weather on the way I appreciate the quiet moments and the cozy things even more.  Now, let the festivities begin!
