Awesome Things To Do When It's Cold Outside
Yes, it's cold outside! The days are getting shorter, and nights are particularly longer. My husband and I would take turns commenting or rather, complaining about how it's already pitch dark outside at just 4 o'clock in the afternoon! Hey, it's Wisconsin! And it's always been that way around here.
But fear not! I have come up with a couple awesome things to do when it's really cold outside and you would rather be indoors to keep yourself warm and cozy.
Let the hibernation begin!
Play with your make-up
As we all know, I am admittedly a make up junkie. There are so many youtube videos out there that you can binge watch for make up tutorials. Cold weather is the a great time to perfect that smokey eye, red lipstick or contouring. Whatever bursts your bubble.
Catch up with your reading
Pick up that book that you've been planning to read for forever now and just start reading. Cozy up in some warm blanket scarf and fuzzy slippers with a hot cup of your favorite drink and just read a good book.
Netflix and chill
Two words: Movie marathon. Movie trilogies are good because just when you're favorite characters are almost gone, you're like.. "oh yeah! to be continued!" Binge watch on your favorite shows that you've been behind with and catch up with the latest episode. Or watch a documentary. Good documentaries are brilliant because they successfully entertain and educate at the same time.
Make a list
Why do we love lists so much? List bring "order to chaos" . Helps us organize things. Take time out to create a list of your own. Grocery list. Things to do. Things to buy. Next vacation spots. Or even baby names!
Bake cookies. Pie. Or a cake
Try new recipes of cookies to bake or cakes that you have not tried baking before. My husband love cookies so I try to bake him cookies whenever I can. It's always a nice treat.
Work out
Nah! just kidding! Go back to bed.
Organize your closet
Not only will you organize stuff, you will actually discover that you have a lot of stuff that you either need to start wearing or tossing out for donation. It's a good time to clean out your closet and make space for new ones.
Give yourself a spa treatment
There are always plenty of ways to pamper yourself at home without spending a lot of fortune by going to the spa or salon. Turn the shower on to hot and close the bathroom door so you're bathroom is an instant sauna! Give yourself a mani-pedi, indulge on a hot bath with your favorite bath bombs. Put on some face mask or a DIY hair treatment. Mix yourself a delicious Mimosa. No harm on having a little self love on a chilly day.
There you have it!
Enjoy yourself on these cold chilly days!
XOXO,
Karen
