Evening Strolls

Today was a lovely day, I slept until noon (the most amazing thing ever), woke up and watched T.V.  and then around 4 went on an afternoon stroll over to my nearest Starbucks with a good book at hand, and hung out there for an hour. I must say, I love love love evening/night strolls.

I love walking around town in the evening as the sun is setting, and the crisp winter air is out, its just amazing to take it all in, to think, to be yourself. Ah I just love it! Now, I don't usually stroll because I am a very  lazy person, but I have done nothing with my holiday and wanted to get out of the house. Also I recently got a new C.S. Lewis book, and wanted to read that, (Huge surprise because I hate reading...a lot).

My favorite part of the day is early morning or late evening/night. I love it because the weather is crisp, there are less people out and about, and I love the lights, the street lights, the car lights, the porch lights, it just reminds me of the city. I love just wondering around town with a coffee in my hand, a nice sweater on, and flip flops (hey don't judge, my style is a mix of winter and summer comfort.). It gives me time to think, and relax.

I ended up sitting at Starbucks reading for about an hour, and wondering around town for about 30 minutes. I just love it, it's so relaxing. While reading and wondering I decided that the simple life is what I want. I want to live in a small town right outside a big city, if possible maybe on the coast, give me my bible or an amazing book, give me a warm drink in the winter, and a cool drink in the summer, give me a person to converse with, let me wonder around town for hours, and I will be content and happy.

So my evening consisted of that, a Starbucks, a book, and wondering around town (mostly looking at stores, and cute Christmas lights). Simple yet amazing.
