Completely happy New Yr! The top of the 12 months wrapped up quietly. We had been notably glad for the carolers who got here to our door a number of nights earlier than Dec. 25 and carried out two songs amongst the snow and the fir timber we had lit round our property. Because of Deb Burwell, Judy Kaiser, Steve Ellis and Victoria Olson for the unforgettable vacation cheer.
I’ve seen currently that there’s a new pattern on East Waldo Street of individuals driving on the unsuitable aspect of the street for greater than only a second. I noticed three totally different automobiles doing it in a single week. I’m assuming they’re selecting the aspect of the street with the fewest potholes and ruts, however it’s also harmful, irrespective of how gradual you’re going. I imagine it is a signal that the situation of our street must be addressed once more, and folk ought to communicate to their neighbors about protected driving when you see anybody you realize doing it.
A brand new 12 months is a turning of a nook. We transfer previous the vacations, take down the lights that we put up only for the enjoyment of seeing and sharing them. We take down the tree and festive decorations, and playing cards from these we had been fortunate sufficient to have consider us. We flip forward to months of grey, and brown, and white; chilly, and storms, and energy outages. These are the months that make us actual Mainers and infrequently give us the tales we repeat in years to return. On this time we’re confronted with our discomforts and dwell with them.
It should be January when a 38-degree day feels heat. I’m making an attempt to deal with the little bit of additional daylight I discover each few days to really feel linked to the brighter, hotter, extra uplifting seasons. Within the coming week we’ll see the sort of chilly we haven’t had in a number of years. Keep heat and protected.
