Today was the Winter Solstice... otherwise known as the shortest day.
That is not really true, it is still 24 hours long, it is just that there are fewer hours of daylight......and from today the days lengthen by a cock stride.....thank goodness. I am very poor in winter.....I don't want to leave my pit and am hungry all the time......I think perhaps I should hibernate. I don't usually start feeling better until about the beginning of March...and January is a real downer......I try to get away somewhere just to break up the winter.....the last 2 years we have been in Australia so I have been OK......don't know how I will be this year.
