Cold, Dark, & Winding...

 


It figures, my cold is finally fading & the weather has to ramp up.  It's stupid dark early & now it's getting cold.  The house is closed.  I'm needing blankets & afghans.  There goes my breathing for the season.  Soon, we'll have to have the heaters on & taps dripping.  I hate Winter.  My skin's already having issues.  My feet are prones to heel cracks & swelling when it's this cold.  I can buff, lather, lotion, etc... nothing helps much until it's warm again.  From October to April sucks.

There are 9 days left in the month & 40 in 2024.  Turkey Day is only 7 days away & there's 34 until Christmas.  There are 108 days until the time change.  

I wish I could be excited about the holidays, but I'm not.  I don't hate them like I used to, but they're at best reminders of things long gone & sometimes nostalgia can be too much.  If I lived by myself, I'd probably just ignore them & act like they didn't exist.

If you're out there, try to be kind.  Some of us are just trying to get by.  Sometimes all this holiday cheer is nothing but a reminder of how you're not part of something, at least ways not anymore.  So when you see the strays & feral, 2 legged or 4, if you can't be kind, at least do no harm.

Take care.
