WinterTime

Winter officially begins tomorrow - but it feels like it has been here for a while already! This year it snowed in northern Indiana on December 1st and the ground has been covered and cold with the white stuff since then! At least it will be a "White Christmas" which is nicely sentimental!

The Good News is this ... though winter is just beginning, tomorrow is also the SHORTEST DAY of the year! (Which means it is also the LONGEST NIGHT!) These days the sun doesn't come up until about 8am and goes down about 5pm - and I don't really like waking up before the sun or staying up much after it goes down!

So where's the GOOD NEWS in that? It's right here ...

Tomorrow the earth begins to tilt the other direction!!

As much as I dislike the short cold days of winter ... I still do like the change of seasons!
(I just wish the winter season was a bit shorter and each of the others was a bit longer!)

Spring is only three months away! (Hope springs eternal, right?)
