It's the End of November Already?


November is almost gone, and with it, the daylight. I've lit candles a couple times to help counteract the dimmer light.
I love candles this time of the year. Fire makes me happy! I'd like to make candles out of our beeswax, and give them away as Christmas presents (or keep them all).

On a postitive note, the temperature is above zero for the first time in a few weeks. +16F!

First Cold Snap

It's been nasty cold. My brain has frozen. I'm questioning my sanity to live in a place like this, and do what I do. And I grew up here! Worst part is, it's only going to get worse. Sometime this winter, it will be -55F and I will still have to get up and milk goats. I will just keep telling myself that I am tough.
