"Cast Away in the Cold"

Book donated to the store ^
 

I'm glad to be getting a ride to work this morning from HM, who rented a car to officiate at a wedding yesterday.

HM came home last night in such a good mood, having been of service and around happy people in love. The two brides were young women from the Philippines--only their family in attendance, all wearing masks. (A Catholic family, but a relative told HM that the Philippines is pretty LGBT-friendly.)

I see many of you bloggers are having similar cold fronts. Cripes!

 

At least cold fronts aren't so bad in this late wintertime:
Daylight has extended to ten-and-a-half hours.

One of the things I love about my low-population neighborhood is that the snow stays pretty clean. My old neighborhood, within hours the snow was filthy with car exhausts.
And the new double-pane windows make a huge difference. The old windows rattled in the wind, and you could feel the cold leaking in.
One way and another, I'm happier here.

SweePo is standing in my bedroom window, wearing an acrobatic unitard ^ from the jointed doll.
(Btw, Cash got tired of being in that jointed-doll's body and has returned to her own.)

Aaand... a bit of silliness I set up at work (and posted on our social media):
