One must have a mind of winter
To regard the frost and the boughs
Of the pine-trees crusted with snow;

And have been cold a long time
To behold the junipers shagged with ice,
The spruces rough in the distant glitter

Of the January sun; and not to think
Of any misery in the sound of the wind,
In the sound of a few leaves,

Which is the sound of the land
Full of the same wind
That is blowing in the same bare place

For the listener, who listens in the snow,
And, nothing himself, beholds
Nothing that is not there and the nothing that is.


OMG...I just did a whole blog and the damn thing went poof!!!
I swear this comp., pisses me off.
Anyway, it would be great if I could remember half of what I blogged, but the main point was telling you that its really freakin cold here and how much of a scrooge Im being this year. LoL...
Would anyone like to do my Christmas shopping for me? Isnt that awful? Ive not even started shopping, nor do I care to.
Guess that makes me a great Mrs. Scrooge!
Anyway, as I tryed to tell you in my first blog...as of now I dont have any plans this week other than work. So I hope to get back and visit pages soon. But in the meantime...even though I am a scrooge...Im keeping you all in my thoughts and prayers. Have a great week, and I'll be back soon. Who knows, maybe I'll make it on-line every night this week. Sweet dreams and good night wishes!
((Hugs))
