Twelfth Night

 It's still Xmas for 3 more hours.  The Twelfth Day of Xmas.  12 Drummers and the Apostles Creed.              On Monday we had a one day Blizzard on Delmarva.  The snow is still on the ground and on the roofs.      We were snowed in.  Wife made pancakes.  I employed state of the art staycation.  On Tuesday we woke up to a white thick Xmas.  Wife ran her garaged 4 wheel drive up and down the driveway.  You park on a driveway and you drive on a parkway.  I shoveled narrow walks to the sheds.  And cement patio, porch and sidewalk.  We stayed home, but not snowed in.  Then Wednesday I cleaned snow off my little white car and my little blue pickup.  Ran Corolla to wawa for fuel,  then to p.o. Seaford-- then to Taco Bell and on way home Tractor supply for couple of bags of feed.  Took a long coffee break--Then the truck to wawa for fuel  then to Trac Supply again for 8 bales of hay.  Then home and another coffee break.  A cat nap and it got dark.  The days are getting longer.  How can that be.  Back into the car which is ready to go.  Over to Bridgeville 3.5 miles away.  McDs and home. On Thursday.... that is today.  Insurrection Day-  it's another big staycation day.    So in a few hours the holidays are over.  I had my phone off all day.  I didn't doom scroll TV or desk top.  I didn't feel like following the anniversary of the Capital riot.      But I checked in tonight on CNN etc.   No huge street armies fighting...or bombs....  No burning of the Reichstag.  A lot about Covid.   I'm kind of glad I'm not up to date.   Groundhog Day in about 4 weeks.  Snow still on the ground slowly melting.  They are saying another east coast storm hits here tomorrow.  I've been in the now of activity last couple of days.  Concurrently, I haven't had the blues.   The sea changes and red crazy sunsets have given me a charge maybe and the soreness from shoveling  too.  Do it all again tomorrow.  Thanks readers.........be safe..     they say Omicron will peak in about a month.   Maybe.                                                                                          LLITTY
