Day:  43-degrees  |  Night:  31-degrees 
Obviously, this picture of our Amarylis was taken yesterday.  Quite a beautiful little plant.  It's nice to have a bit of color with live plants inside during this holiday season.  We can't wait for the Paperwhites to come into bloom.

It's still dark outside in the garden.  It is foggy and there's a mist in the air.  There's a bit of that bone-chill in the air.  It's not particularly cold, it's just chilling.  The garden feels like it is waiting.  Waiting for Winter to really come.  Waiting for the Spring to bring warmth and new life.  Waiting.  We are also waiting in this season.  Waiting for the light to come.  Waiting.  Hoping. Praying. Waiting.  It's dark right now but the light is coming.  We wait with faith, with hope, and love in our hearts.  For now, we wait in the darkness.

The fog will lift later this morning.  The rain will end but the clouds will stick around all day.  Winds are light and variable.  We are a bit slow in our start this morning.  Coffee and Tea are in our mugs.  Some lovely music is playing on the Smart Speaker.  The light from the Christmas tree is illuminating the room.  A roaring fire in the fireplace to knock off the chill.  Not a bad way to begin this Saturday morning.  I hope you find some goodness today.  Be kind to yourself. Be kind to those you may meet along the way.  That's all the news from the Carondelet Garden.
