The journal Carrie gave to you is perfect!! I always remind myself of the positive aspects of winter, too -- right now in chilly Oregon, we're enjoying fires and cozy times indoors. Can't say it's been especially relaxing (you know why!) but it's definitely been exciting. We're getting settled into our new rig and hoping for some peaceful time before we take off in early January. Sending Solstice hugs!

Bummer you missed the drumming. I also missed the Spiral Dance this year :-( Living all my life where Summer is the more brutal season, and my early years where you can see the stars from horizon to horizon, I have welcomed the longer nights of Winter. Still, there's nothing like a mild, sunny day for sharing the outdoors with loved ones :-) I love the supper pic of Carrie and her dad - what great smiles! And the one of you and your gift with that glitter of tear in your eyes....precious. Love-fest indeed, I can feel it through the screen :-)) I need to incorporate a Solstice cake into our Solstice - I just love the idea of eating up that sun! Howdy Doody was just before my Saturday cartoon watching began - I think Captain Kangaroo may be my earliest.
