The Storms A-Brewin' Activities List
http://arttattler.com

We all love a good stormy day and night in the lively PNW. I mean what’s not to love and fantasize about when the rain is pouring down than some snuggly clothes and a good cup of tea or coffee. I mean then of course there are some days that are a little bit more frightful than those simple drizzles, for example the days we have been dealing with of late. So I thought I would think of some simple and warming activities for those days that either could be for the small showers or when those storms are a-brewin’. I also put them in two categories because just when there is water falling from the sky at any rate doesn’t just contain you to your room!

Indoor Activities:

Reading: I mean, of course, this is the first thing we all think of. You snuggle up with a blanket with a good book by a window and call it a good day. I mean I’m an English major there is NOTHING better than one of my favorite books or a good book off the pile of books that I am to read very soon. Among the different things that we could do this can be the most beneficial; you are able to gain knowledge on something or even catch up on your school books.

Writing: Again, this is the English major coming out in me but I mean this is not limited to emotional poetry or extra dark short stories. This can be devotionals or even just journaling that you have been missing from schooling or even just some reflective time to see where you are and write about it. It also gets your creative juices flowing for you and to allow some outlet.

Baking: This is definitely not everyone’s favorite thing but I believe that it’s good for you. I mean sweets are great and it’s a very loving act of taking care of not yourself but of others if you live with others. It is therapeutic and can keep you busy and moving when you happen to be stuck in the house.

Arts & Crafts: I feel this one is meant to be. I mean I myself spend so much time on Pinterest and this time is meant for me. You spend time working on some of those arts and crafts to be able to maybe do something creative. These projects are also things that allow you to feel cathartic and even get you moving around the house.

Nap: This one is just obvious. When it’s cold outside you just want to be able to cuddle up underneath all those blankets and fall asleep. Naps are one of my favorite things especially on those stormy days.

Outdoor Activities:

Puddle Hopping: This one is just one of the greatest things that we did as kids was hop in puddles in our rain boots and honestly it never got old. Raining is definitely a motivation to not leave your house but when you want to leave hopping in puddles is a great nearby activity. It allows you to feel child-like and happy.

Coffee Shop Hopping: This is just a coincidence that these both have to do with hopping-When you no longer want to be inside or hang out outside why not go to another place of business. You are able to get warm beverages (or cold I don’t judge) and sit a great table and do any of the above!

I don't think I say it enough...

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.
