Rejoice! REJOICE!

My favorite day of the year, hands down.

As of the Winter Solstice days start getting longer!

The Winter Solstice, the SHORTEST DAY of the year in the Northern Hemisphere.

Welcome YULE!

Shout it out loud. Welcome YULE.


Evenings have already started getting longer — as I pointed out in this post. Funnily enough (if it can be construed as funny) mornings DO NOT START getting earlier until 2024! Then, we really getting into the stride of things. Within a month of the solstice we would have gained in excess of 30 minutes!
