This was undoubtedly a long and hot summer indeed, and although the warm weather is always nice for a little while, there are some things about the cold that I'm missing just a little extra.

1. Sweater weather, always

Sure, shorts and a tee shirt are perfect in the summer time, but in the cold?? You can NEVER have enough sweaters.

2. Fuzzy socks

There's nothing like a pair of fuzzy socks to warm your toes when it's chilly outside.

3. Seasonal decorations

Yeah, pumpkins are more of a fall decoration, but it's chilly in the fall, and pumpkins create a great aesthetic.

4. Sitting by the fireplace

There's nothing cozier than curling up by a warm fire!

5. Snow, snow, snow

Okay, it might not be everyone's favorite thing in the world, but you can't deny that freshly fallen snow is just beautiful.

6. Hot drinks all the time

Sure, hot drinks are around all year, but they count most when it's cold.

7. Cozy movie nights

It's like a regular movie night, but plus a thousands blankets and hot chocolate. Yes please.

8. Extra blankets

Speaking of blankets, when it's cold outside, there's no limit to how many you can have,

9. Coming back home

I'm lucky enough to call both Selinsgrove and Exton my home. Cold weather means spreading my time out between the two of them and still always feeling right at home.

See you soon, cold weather!

I'll never forget the day that someone told me these words: "Madison, I think you're a good friend to everyone but yourself." I stood there completely in awe of that statement. Before that day, I never really thought about being a friend to myself, and at the time, I didn't really know what it meant. Now, I realize that you can't fully be there for other people unless you're there for yourself, too. You can't show up for others until you're willing to show up for yourself.

Here are five things everyone should learn in order to be a better friend to themselves. These steps are hard, but they're so worth it.
