hibernation

winter is going on.  cold temperatures, snow, gloomy days.  going about my days one at a time.  beginning the process of taking down the christmas trees and decorations.  starting a restoration project on an old coffee table.  watching tv, attempting to read, listening to music.  basically distracting myself from the doldrum of winter.  each day brings warmth, spring, closer.
