Here We Snow Again

Maery Rose

Okay, I rarely post more than once a week anymore, but I can not keep such weather joy to myself. I must share! My drive home from work:

The dogs have a better attitude about it.

The snow-fall hoods me round;

— Loreena McKennitt, “Snow”

A bit of Christmas tune towards the end, but such a beautiful voice… it does drive the cold winter away

Such attacks are rare now and when they happen, it’s on a smaller scale. Face your fears… that’s my current motto.

Thrift Store, Food, and Xena

Whenever I visit family or family visits me, after their visit, their absence is heard in the silence, the lack of conversation and laughter. It’s felt in the lack of them, the empty space that was so recently filled with a familiar, cozy presence. It takes awhile to adjust and for things to feel normal…
