New bedding and lazy mornings

I’ll be the first to admit, I have really struggled over the last couple of weeks. I’m not naturally a ‘morning person’ and having to drag myself out of a cosy warm bed is hard for me on most days. However, on wintery mornings — when there’s a chill in the air and frosty patterns …
