\"wintersolstice_fibonlady\"<\/a>Winter? Last weekend high temps in the 70\u2019s and lows in the 60\u2019s, other than that it\u2019s still warm and muggy. That\u2019s the thing with Central Florida. If you\u2019re not a heat and humidity loving beach or boating person, the constant steam bath gets old and oppressive. If we\u2019re lucky, we get six months a year of cool weather with breezes and humidity under 70%. Being in the cool dry air makes my body feel frisky and enlivens my mind . I feel like being active outdoors and when I\u2019m active outdoors, I get contemplative. When I get contemplative, I spend more time pondering. I write to figure things out and record realizations. I’ve had a little frustration lately as I’m healing my right paw and trying to stay off the keyboard and mouse, and even the phone for voice to text.\u00a0 This too shall pass.\u00a0 Facebook has a feature now showing what I posted \u201cOn This Day\u201d in years past. I could tell by what I wrote how inspired I was and what the weather was. I see on Winter Solstice 2009, I wrote Your Daily Spiritual Practice & The Company You Keep<\/a>.
\nOn 2010 I wrote Exercising the Spidey Sense.
\n<\/a> On 2012 Reviewing the year for what you want to continue doing<\/a>.
\nOn 2013 The Winter Solstice bonfire metaphor and why we\u2019re cooked faster by some people than others<\/a>
\nOn 2014 I wrote Sleeping, Cleaning, Souping<\/a><\/p>\n

A typical thing I do as soon as cool weather hits is set up a tent in my woods here. The last 4 years it hasn\u2019t been cool long enough to do that. Perhaps this will be the year. Tonight, a fire.<\/p>\n
