So, it’s the middle of the night when it starts because why wouldn’t it be? I decide that I am going to ignore it because it doesn’t appear to have woke anyone else up. I start to drift back to sleep and WHAM 70 pounds of terrified muscle has pounced directly onto me and I… Continue reading Reframe

The air is filled by icy droplets that make a chilling early morning fog. Amazingly there is a very fine soft snow… Continue reading Have a coffee, keep warm!
There were crystals in the air when I stepped outside this morning. As I braced against the cold I cast my eyes to the sky.
