I don't know what it is about these cold, clear days that makes me feel like tap dancing across the stage of my life. Maybe it's all that light that makes me shoot into action like the amaryllis my friend Gina gave me at Thanksgiving. Or maybe it's just the exhibitionist in me soaking up all the accumulated sunshine of you all's loving concern. At any rate, (and I'll whisper this is order not to tempt the fates) i'm feeling great this week. I've been able to get lots of good hours of writing in and have a good appetite--trying to stop the weight loss.
We're looking forward to the return of the kids for Christmas, too, and to some special time shopping with each of them. Who could say we're not blessed to the hilt. I hope you all are keeping warm and energized and not too harried with extra demands of the Holidays.

Thanks for reminding us that the clear blue skies and glistening snow this time of the year are really a good thing. Who wants the pouring rain, gloomy skies and er, 45 degree temperatures?
Out on the Funny Farm, we got the rare chance to track where the elk go on a cold night, as a number of them traveled about in the pasture and left their signs in the snow. It almost looked like somebody did a little X-country skiing - the tracks were as if they dragged their feet as they browsed for the green grass under the snow. Totally cool in a good way.
Thanks for the reminder of the rarity of these events! And happy Christmas'ing to you.

Now even the sun, snow, and slush connect me to you.
