Some morning, on my way to work, November 2007.Today was the first day of winter, one of my favorite days of the year. It brings me hope that I'll be able to walk Ernest in the light, wake again to natural light and give me an inkling that all will be okay in the world as spring comes soon after.
While we woke to lashings of rain and a dull gray sheet of clouds, the day brightened as it went on. It improved to the point that the and errands that required doing and things that couldn't wait, waited, while we stood in the dining room and smiled at the sun coming in and warming our house.
Hello Winter, thank you for bringing us light and warmth, if just for those brief minutes.

Waking up to "lashings of rain and a dull gray sheet of clouds"?
I did not know you lived in England.
