[Magdalen] how I hate this weather

[Marion Thompson]

It is just around freezing here and the very fine snow is coating branches like icing sugar.  Very pretty, but it is evening all morning.

My electric fire with visuals that is set in a console located under my living room window no longer works.  ☹  I now have a small heater sitting next to it.  It does its quiet work to take the chill off the basement-less floor, but it just isn’t the same as looking at a fire, real or not.

This, too, shall pass.

My least favorite time of the year.
All my joints hurt.
I wish I had a fireplace.
