My dear, one day you chill me out, the other day you heat me up......are these the whims of winter?......... Extraordinary colours in that sky, peacefully displayed about the house silhouette, as if to say.....everything's well around my hearth and home....a most welcoming message!

Hell Lorraine! I wish you had mentioned the end of the world had started. Now is that moving east or west? Is there anything I can do or shall I sit tight until it happens?
