Attempt

The world outside was peaceful and blanketed in white fluf. 
She had everything prepared and soon she sat quietly on the windowsill, wrapped in a cozy plaid and stared outside, her hands cupped around warm cup of linden tea. The book of her favourite author laid open on the tiny table, she had stopped at page five. She looked at it for a moment and then returned her gaze towards the window. The snowlakes had started their mesmerizing dance again. She shifted a bit, then moved a bit more. Finally she gave up, took her half-drank tea to the couch and switched on TV. Half an hour later she had gone through all the chanels twice and stopped on an old movie she had seen at least a dozen times. Various different snacks were displayed on the coffee table nearby and her hand rhytmically snatched them one by one and put them in her mouth. She retrieved her gaze from TV from time to time only to look at the plates and bowls. Suddenly, her phone pinged and she switched her attention to that. Soon she had submerged herself in the world of Facebook, scrolling absendmindly. The TV desperatelly tried to get back her atention but it was a lost battle.
Ouside a lonely deer had entered her backyard and looked at her through the window.
