Time to Hibernate!

Dear Friends,
Old man winter and Sister wind are having a party in North Idaho! As is usual this time of year, they are telling me to start my hibernation cycle. Mercury went Rx on the 28th and will not go direct until the 18th of February. Those of you who were on my friends list in October will remember, I don't do Mercury in Rx well.  I tend to lay low and not communicate during the transition, but I do check the emails and keep up with what is going on even though I don't communicate and actually participate.
As of right now, my computer is being run on a battery as we are in a power outage that could last days. The temperature is a 34 degrees, with a wind chill of 22. The snow is about 4 ft deep on the flat ground with another 10 inches coming in today. Snow burms here are higher than buildings and trees. We are driving down roads between white walls of snow that block the view of buildings and the rest of the world. It's kind of like driving inside a labirynth or maze. I will post photos once they are developed, as I am old fashioned and still use a film camera.
There is much to be done should the temps go down without heat in the house. I am sure we will make it through somehow, the dogs and I always do. The roads are becoming impassable too. I am taking this as a sign from Spirit to look within. Take time out and warm my heart.
Have fun while I'm gone and I want to hear all your stories when I "get back" in February! PE
