Yesterday was the winter solstice. According to Wikipedia, "The winter solstice occurs exactly when the Earth's axial tilt is farthest away from the sun at its maximum of 23° 26'."
Many people prefer to think of this day as the first day of winter. I am more of a "glass is half full" kind of gal so I would like to think of this as the shortest day of the year. Therefore, beginning today the days will only get longer and we will gain a minute or two of sunlight every day.
I hope everyone has a wonderful holiday. Eat, drink and be merry!

Ha ha...my husband and I said the same thing! The days only get longer from here...woohoo!
ENjoy the holidays
I thought the same thing; the days are getting longer from here on out.....well until June 21st anyway.
Comments make me happy, too! Yay for the days getting longer. I do not like having cold dark days before and after work, making it hard to fit in the workouts! Love the new blog design.
ooooo, and thanks for not making me type in some blurry letters in order to comment. you get a bonus comment for that :-)
