When the weather turns cold, we truly appreciate the "warm spots" that add comfort to the day... and night.
"King David was now very old, and no matter how many blankets covered him, he could not keep warm."- 1 Kings 1:1
Can you relate? Even kings experience the cold. You do not have to be old to find yourself in a place where you cannot seem to get warm.
I love my "bun warmers" in my car. Randy's truck has a heated steer wheel, too, that I appreciated when I took his vehicle on Monday. He had the seats and steering wheel warm and waiting for me when I headed out the door for the day. It made my day. It was the perfect warm spot on a cold morning.
A seat on the hearth is a perfect way to spend a winter's evening. Our fireplace burns wood, which adds an extra sense of warmth with the wonderful smell that not only lights the room, it creates an ambiance related to the scents, the sounds of the crackling wood, and the heat given off. It is a perfect warm spot.
To end most winter days, I have to move the 70 pound baby that is already in my spot. Daisy Mae is a perfect foot warmer which makes up for the fact she is a bed hog. The mattress pad has a pre-heat setting, too. A warm bed in the winter is the best of warm spots... and it is hard to crawl out of in the morning.
Savor the warm spots in your day. They are simple pleasures.
Today, I am grateful for the "warm spots."
