We even missed a few days of work. Children got three days off school. They weren't sad. Neither was I.
The bees are wrapped in their hives, snug as bugs in a rug.
The queens will finally get a vacation. They certainly deserve one.
Santa and his reindeer have come and gone.

We've eaten a lot of turkey.
Christmas trees have been taken down.
The fireworks are done, the champange sipped.
Happy New Year everyone!!!
The over-eating is finally easing down. The scales have not.... +++ I'll deal with that later.
Things are slowing down--not really but I remain hopeful--and now I have time to devote to other things.
I don't have to think about bees every hour of every day. I can take my mind off them. I can think of other things. I can do other things. Like deciding where I will hang the crochet bee that a friend gave me for Christmas.
Like redecorating the bathroom with an aquamarine theme...

using this glass honey dish.
Later I'll relax with some knitting. Maybe I'll make a vest or a scarf using this lovely pattern....![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgablSz1JWPDdo6QKJUzvM9rhp6f7DdB45-mbgYBNH8g_lo2VIYklbbSURsNd33DvhD3zqhK8-aN-3FL9fsdjpHmSOo_Yf8f7oEPnB60NueuVeAB29VImPBMcKA0z3cgvmo5s97X8JUDIs/s320/DSCF3325.jpg)

Before bed I'll relax and have a milk and honey bath.

Finally I'll have time to catch up on some reading. Something like this....

a book about how business would be so much better organized if only we copied the bees. I agree.
By the time I'm done all these things it'll practically be spring.
Then I'll have to start thinking about bees again.

I sure hope your healthy bees survive this cold, cold winter. It has even been cold here in N. Alabama. I just wanted you to know that I still read your blog.
Hi Kat. Thanks for dropping by. I visit your blog too :)
