     The sky to the west this morning is the exact definition of 'sky blue' with just a tinge of pinkish hue.  But we pay for the beauty with a temperature that is harsh -7 Fahrenheit.  The snow from yesterday makes such a beautiful landscape it is hard to listen to people complain about it.  It covers a pretty desolate looking land at this point, so I will enjoy how it brightens up the world.  Today I venture forth into reality with the running of many errands.  I have put it off as long as I possibly could, but reality always returns, sometimes with a vengeance. This time out of time has been a beautiful, much needed gift.  I hope I can retain some of the peacefulness when school starts again on Monday.
