Finding time for books in my life wasn't an issue since I always was fond of them, be it through educational literature, classic literature or work-related literature - a book was always in my hands.Somewhere along 2015. it ceased to be the case and books remained on shelves or hidden in drawers. That change was unwelcome and I didn't like it so by the end of 2016. I've made the decision to get back on track and I haven't been expecting myself to immediately start reading hefty literature - easier, even chick lit books on the regular would do the trick. One last thing, one last remaining nudge in that direction was creating the perfect reading nook.

While summer is epitome for relaxation and summer holidays, in my line of work it stands for excessive workload and I'm basically living at the airport June through September. That makes me appreciate those rare moments of "me time" even more! Regulars on my Insta stories (@simply.selma) will know that I'm a homebody by nature, preferring to stay in the evenings regardless if it's a working day or the weekend. I love my home, I love making it cozy, setting the atmosphere and enjoying all that good stuff.

For the past year or so I've been craving a complete change in my home. After it became obvious that I spend more hours browsing Pinterest for furniture than I do for makeup, I've decided that I'm finally ready to tackle that daunting (but oh, so exciting!) task of upping my interiors game.

Food is something I'm quite into - my Insta stories people will corroborate that one! And kitchen is a corner of my home I find myself more frequently spending my time in recently whether I'm actually cooking, helping my husband with his delicious dishes, prepping meals for work, just having a very exciting conversation on how to curb sweet cravings I've been battling recently and daydreaming of a new kitchen setup. Interiors have been on my mind like never before and I'm making plans of redecorating our home one room at a time. I want to make everything just the way I want it but such endeavors aren't easy to plan and/or execute so I'm taking baby steps in order to get where I want to be.

In the era of internet, busy lifestyles, too much workload and everything being just too much an average Joe can handle, books seem to be forgotten. And that's a shame as I, for one, certainly have missed their presence in my thoughts and life in general. Most people will tell you books are special because it definitely isn't the same to read something on your laptop (no matter how handy pdf's really are) and to hold a book in your hands. There's that beautiful smell of paper, feeling the paper under your fingertips and the way you can "hear" the writer's voice much clearer through a real book.

December 21st marked the winter solstice. Late dawn. Early sunset. Short day. Long night. I'm the first person to admit that the darkness around this time of year makes it hard for us to function. Have you noticed that we seem to wake up in the dark, go to work in the dark and go home in the dark? Despite nature telling us it's time to hibernate, I have a few tricks up my sleeve for getting through these dark days and nights.
