"Brrr, it's cold out here!" - Gracie

Dear Diary,

It is indeed, -10F this morning.  Gracie is happy there is a warm water bowl and lots of tasty sunflower seeds at the Back Porch Café.   My first day of the on-line class, The Blessing thread: Wales and Ireland went very well.  We are tracing the roots of Celtic Spirituality focusing on Brigid, Brendan and Patrick.  The instructor, Kayleen Asbo, is wonderful and there are over 60 of us from all over the world participating.  The poetry and music have been beautiful.  Just what I was needing.
