Best Time of the Year....

Our days are short, pale and oh, so cold; but we are past the solstice, it's time to tell Australia to "Send Back the Sun". Won't be long before it will be clearly light when I arrive at my nearby train station in the evening, I'll walk in twilight instead of black darkness the rest of the way home. (Small pleasures). I've been sick all week. Today I started feeling stronger. I ordered some better winter boots from Sierra Trading Post. I read for a while. I folded laundry.
