Finally, I had to bring my numbing toes into the house to warm up, and of course I had to go with them, and take my eyes as well. In a few days it will be a bit warmer, and maybe I'll be able to stay out a bit longer and watch Orion emerge in the darkening sky. The evenings are getting noticeably longer now, which always pleases me. Chances are that even tonight the feral cats' water bowls won't freeze over, and Wednesday night won't be much colder than noon was today. It's still a long time until spring, but I can sense the roots stirring in the ground. There's still lots of cold ahead, and maybe even some snow, but I can picture the end of it, and the emergence of flowers. And now that I can feel my toes again, I'm going to go heat some soup. It's a perfect night for it.
