Eggnog as coffee creamer, already
This #thankyouthursday, I am grateful for eggnog as coffee creamer, already.
Yesterday my spouse and I were running an errand and he observed that holiday music was already playing in the store.
In the past, hearing holiday music barely a week after Halloween might have made me roll my eyes. But my take on it now is: I’ll take it!
The holiday season helps me feel cozy and cheerful during a time when darkness is literally encroaching (aka after the seemingly pointless and definitely painful time change last weekend).
Who cares if it’s “only” early November? The way this year has been hurtling along, it will be December anyway before we know it. Might as well enjoy some bonus cozy and cheer.
Including: eggnog! Eggnog as coffee creamer is one of my favorite treats, and because I don’t typically expect it to be available till around Thanksgiving, seeing it on the shelf yesterday was a W-I-N.
So today, I am enjoying eggnog as coffee creamer, already. And I am grateful.
Love > fear,

p.s. Oh yeah—I’m also grateful the elections in my state turned out in support of women’s bodily autonomy. I honestly didn’t know if they would, and I’m hopeful our national outcomes next year will be similarly affirming.
