My inspiration.

Welcome to my little adventure! I’m excited to welcome you to my blog. I thought a lot about my first post and thought I should explain what Moonlight and Hot tea mean to me. I am a night owl. I always have been. I was blessed with parents that did not set a bedtime for me as a child on non school nights. In the summer my father would cut up a watermelon, load the VCR, and kiss me goodnight as he went to work at the rubber factory. Nights were magic to me. After the videos were through, I was usually still wide awake. I would read, cross-stitch, write my journal, and create stories for our Barbie dolls. My sister would sometimes get up and ask me why I wasn’t in bed yet. I was just in my best hours. About four in the morning I would usually crawl into bed and sleep until the afternoon. My sister had already been up for hours, Mom was probably on her lunch break at the hospital, and Dad was sound asleep. Then there was me. Ready to take on the afternoon and relish in another moonlit summer night.

I continued this routine into adulthood. I deliberately work night shifts just so I can enjoy the quiet stillness of night. On my nights off, I tend to be inspired to write or work on other projects. I’ll set up in the living room, turn on the radio, open my computer, and let the moonlight and hot tea take over.

I’m just a lover of the night time. I’m in no way a dark person though. I love the sun and being outside too. There’s just a different quality of the night that is inspiring and exhilarating to me. I also love nature. If you have never walked through the woods or on the beach in the middle of the night…well it’s undescribable. It’s the most liberating feeling. You feel like you are the only one experiencing this and it’s all for you. I could go on, and I will later. I love writing about travel and other adventures. I love to find out if there’s anything new to do or see and I often write about it.

Thank you again for visiting. I hope you enjoy my little moonlit musings.

Thank you
