Well, I guess we all know what today is.

Yes, I know, I haven't posted in a while. However, here comes another post. And in case you didn't know, today is the day of the Winter Solstice (or at least it is here in the Northern Hemisphere where I live). Yes, today is the shortest day of the year (longest day for all you folks in the Southern Hemisphere). So, now it's technically winter.

Kinda ironic because here in North Carolina, where I live its gonna get up to 73 degrees Fahrenheit today (that's 22.8 degree Celsius). And tomorrow it's gonna be 79 degrees Fahrenheit (26.1 degrees Celsius). Yeah, I know I am an American, we're the only country in the world that doesn't use the metric system, SUE US! But the point is it's now technically winter, but it sure doesn't feel like it. At least not here in NC. Even though there are other parts of the world (especially here in the United States) where people may say otherwise (up north in the US, Old Man Winter is really is really wreaking havoc).

However, there is one thing I do like about today. This is the LAST DAY WE WILL BE ON THE DOWNSWING OF DAYLIGHT. So, starting tomorrow we're back on the upswing of daylight. That and my brother's fiancĂ©e has invited us to a concert staring her sister. She is in a country music band. They are having a Winter Solstice concert tonight at a family mill. Still say it's ironic to think about due to the warm weather we're getting today in North Carolina.
