"A Dozen"
Looking around the apartment, I tried to figure out what I have that was a dozen. I didn't have a full carton of eggs, or a dozen of anything other than maybe books. I looked over at the window sill and saw "The 12 Days of Christmas". They are celebrated from Christmas to Three Kings Day which is January 6th. Over the summer when we decorated for Christmas for John's birthday, I had them on our table. This time I decided to put them on the window sill. Every time I see them, it makes me smile. You can see in the window to the right the snow-laden branch outside our window. Snow didn't start to accumulate until 2-3pm today. Now everything is covered in a thick blanket. I just checked and Harold's tree is almost unrecognizable! I'm glad for the snow though. I discovered that there is a pond that forms when everything melts off in the woods behind the house. And there is a long puddle that forms in the yard behind the apartment as well. Hoping the next warm-up will be a bit more gradual so the water can disperse better. :)
