speaking the truth

Yup.

Been out to shovel the walk once already. Put out seed & suet for the local feathered wildlife. (I have cardinals in my spruce tree & sparrows/wrens/generic small brown birds in the bamboo.

I brought in a shitload of deadfall from the back yard yesterday & plan on having a fire going in the woodstove for most of the weekend.

Plenty to eat, plenty to drink, and RumpleMinz for the cocoa after shoveling.

It's nice & quiet here, too, since Toshi is down in Exton --though I don't know if he'll be getting to Al Hafla as planned-- and Jon is off at drill. Just me, the pets, the fire & plenty of books in the bookcase.

You two keep safe & warm, and don't hurt yourselves shoveling.
