Just finished another brutal, but satisfying 4-day trip. I'm exhausted and dreaming of spring already and today it starts getting better. The days are getting longer after this minute. I don't know what pagan instincts today inspires, but it's one of the marked days on my calendar, above many others.

This is a day I celebrate quietly but strongly inside. Winter isn't coming. It's here.

That is all. Enjoying a glass of Pinot to try to unwind. Enjoy winter!
