It's frightfully cold this morning, 7 degrees in the sun and it's predicted to get even colder for the next few days. Because winter can be so very long, the days so short and cabin fever a real threat, I get through the winter by surrounding myself with only the things that make me happy...
A plowed driveway
A shoveled path to the bird feeder
A nice pile of firewood just steps from the back door.
A patient kitty to remind me I'm not the only one waiting for spring.
Colorful yarn
Cymbidium orchid ready to bloom
A sunny corner office
A warm fire, a big stash of yarn, a pile of seed catalogs
Plenty of good friends...
...and good food....
...and more good friends...
Cheers!!!
