We have been getting snow lately–everyday now for a week. It’s warm though; hovers around freezing all the time, even at night. The cabin is pathetically easy to keep warm. Every once in awhile a warm wind comes and everything starts melting. Still, things are white and pretty and I’m enjoying large pots of snow with lemon juice and sugar on it.
A couple days ago, we got a lot of snow. I was reminded how much harder it is to walk in snow when I didn’t make it home from my walk till after dark.
People are starting to talk to me more around here. They used to be much cooler. They are seeing me as a resident. I’m starting to see myself as more of a resident too. When I first came here, it seemed like I was just a visitor and felt like I was pulling a scam getting a mailbox and a library card. I still kind of feel that way. I like moving through the world as if I’m an alien from another planet just visiting.
Still thinking about going but not so much; I’m settling into winter.
