Waterford

One day left till the end of the earth as we know it. At least that is according to conspiracy experts who whine that the end of the Mayan calendar means we shall all die. SO off we go and we shall miss Christmas. Hope nobody had big plans. Personally I do not believe in it. I have heard so many end-of-world theories that I do not believe in them. Just a skeptic.

Am slowly trying to heal. Brain still doesn’t work well. I have forgotten how to spell. I also still have trouble seeing and hearing. But I walked to the end of the road in the snow today and I haven’t done that for a while. Of course, the ice was less slippery with its snow cover. We had at least 8 inches by 3 p.m. and then it kept snowing. Won’t know until tomorrow night if it will keep snowing or turn to rain. That would be worse because then we would have ICE again. Get out the crampons.

Hard to believe that Christmas will be here next week; seems like winter is just beginning. Actually it officially begins on Friday, the 21st, the day all ends. Nice to know we end on winter solstice. Happy solstice and happy endings. If we are still here, have a great week.
