Greeting the Solstice

Winter has come at last. No snow here, not even a chance. But a stillness has settled in, a peace and I love that. This morning we slept late. My last package was mailed yesterday and I started dozing off at 9:30 last night. I'm so grateful for this time off.

Winter books were pulled out just a while ago and two read on the spot. A couple of new ones I had purchased over the year joined our old favorites.

Our Thanks Giving tree was transformed into a snowy winter tree with the help of the beeswax snowflakes I made last year. And we've been joined by a little sun gnome, here to greet the Solstice.

Happy Solstice to you, friends!
