Day 89 of 365

I tried to start my Christmas baking tonight with a recipe I got from my girlfriend Ang. She made them last week and I got to try them at book club. They were divine. The recipe seems very easy at first glance but somewhere along the way. The taste was great but the texture was terrible and when I tried to take them out of the pan they totally fell apart, very disappointing but I will try again. In the mean time here is my failure.

Day number 88 of 365

Night is coming pretty damn early these days. The sky was starting to darken when I left work tonight at 4:30. It is hard to deal with for me because I do have SAD. Some people don't believe in such a thing or they think that everyone gets a little sad in the winter but those who have it will tell you, as I am now, that it is very real and very painful illness I have great support from my husband and my friends but that doesn't mean I don't still feel it. One of the things that helps is to keep busy, keep structured and to look for beauty in the darkness. That is why I am sharing this picture that I took at sunset which this evening came at roughly 5:15pm.

Sometimes you only get one chance to the greatest picture. That is what happened this morning. 

I love my hubby!

SMILE!

Day 86 of 365

Winter has really started to creep up on us. I don't love the cold but it does provide lots of opportunity some beautiful pictures. I took this one this morning while we were sitting in the car waiting for the windshield for defrost.I thin it is kind of pretty.

DAY 84!!

A PICTURE IS WORTH 50,000 WORDS!

Day 83!

It is beginning to look a lot like Christmas!

Okay so I know the snow is cold and wet and it makes driving a major pain in the ass, and shoveling, don't even get me started on shoveling. But you have to admit. It is awfully pretty!

(Ask me again in January what I think of the snow)
