My steps are lighter today, because I know the days will be getting longer, and spring will be the next season. My message to winter is, be cold and do your thing, then get out of the way when April comes.
I hope you are doing well and keeping warm, but not too warm to those who have warm weather year round.
Spectacular sky photograph Susan! Happy Winter Solstice! Here's to April! Carol
ReplyDeleteLovely photo :)
ReplyDeleteI too have a spring in my step now, knowing the days will be getting longer from here on. Woo hoo. I need to get outside!!!
Happy Solstice :D
My ever cheerful husband sent me a similar email this morning. It's something to keep in mind as the wind is howling and the rain is pouring outside. sigh. No wonder we put lights festive on our houses. heheh
ReplyDeleteMerry Christmas Sue. I hope you and your family have a loving and happy holiday!
Yay! Longer days! I, too, am happy to be rounding the corner with the long, dark nights. Even if it's just a few extra minutes of sunshine per day, I'll take it. Love your attitude toward winter. Merry Christmas, Sue!
ReplyDeleteYay for longer days. Boo that winter is just starting, it has felt like winter already here for quite some time. I hope you have a Merry Christmas Sue. My plans for next spring are already drawn up!
ReplyDeleteIt's comforting to know we're heading for longer days!
ReplyDelete-Merry Christmas!
I am dreamy thinking of April in the gardens. Does this mean I get to sleep longer tonight?
ReplyDeleteI'm so totally with you about winter... yeah, after today I'll be seeing more daylight after I get home... yeepee! I'm so tired of leaving my home in the dark and arriving in the dark... ;) nice meeting you

ReplyDeleteHi Sue ~~ It looks like you've got a spam.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photo and sentiments. I agree. When April comes, out you go, winter! Sooner if you so choose.
That is a beautiful photo.
ReplyDeleteI sort of enjoy winter months....I need to rest up from the outside work and get prepared mentally for the gardening season.
This year it seems like it has never ended...still mulching...ordered and received seeds...reading new catalogs almost daily.
Sue, That's a beautiful shot! I am so glad the days are getting shorter~~My spirit lifts when the light increases....gail
ReplyDeleteMerry Christmas to you my friend and a very happy new year
ReplyDeleteBeautiful sunrise shot! Wouldn't it be nice if after the holidays we could just skip ahead to April? Merry Christmas!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous sunrise! I agree with your sentiments! I like my seasons during the three months they belong and then on to the next one. Glad the days will be getting longer. We have had so many days of dreary, wet weather...I look forward to sunny times.
