Hibernating Is Lovely

January 21:

We have had several Gray, Low Light Days. The Temperature has been hovering at, below and above Freezing. We've even had Dense Fog. The Skies seem to commune closely with the Earth. We've had Rain and Freezing Rain. Ice has covered most surfaces. Town has seemed farther away. Thunder and Lightning danced about yesterday morning, perhaps just to tease us with their Power.

A Fire on the Hearth soothes and comforts. Most of us (the Pets included) tend to move in and out taking turns of being close to the Wood Stove. Soup and Homemade Breads are standard fare. Naps are good. Hibernating is lovely.
