brrrrrrrrrrr................... it's cold


Just thought i'd come out of hibernation for a bit and say hello to my readers (you know who you are!)
hope everyone's enjoying the deep freeze.. I mean what better time than now to snuggle up in a warm blanket with a good book, by a cozy fire and drink some hot chocolate/apple cider....

see ya!

happy hibernating!

On a similar note, after checking out today's front page Gazette, I realized how fortunate I really am. The homeless man that you see in the background, was a fixture on my daily walks to con u. Over my four years I saw him on St.Cat, sometimes with shoes, other times with nothing but garbage bags wrapped around his feet. Seeing him again on the front page is a reminder of how lucky we really are . I mean we complain about the cold, but when it comes down to it, at the end of the day we know we have warm houses waiting for us, and our cars to take us there. It's heartbreaking to think that there are so many people who have no where to go and no warmth at the end of their day and that in this day and age there are still people who have to suffer without their basic needs of food, clothing and shelter being met.
