Catching up

It's been a long time since I posted.  Winter is always difficult for me.  Cool, damp weather makes my body ache and the short days create depression, along with grief that returns during the holidays.  I'm doing okay, just not motivated to create.

This week has been spent watching the road crews preparing to repave the street where I live.  They have run into a problem of wet clay in the roadbed.  This has meant removing and replacing gravel in the roadbed.  After a week, they have decided to cover it with gravel again and let it sit over the weekend to see how it looks on Monday.  At that time they will decide what to do.  This has been my view for most of the week.
