Ready

A winter storm approaches.

The fire has been laid and kindled,

wanting only for the house to cool,

and a match.

Update Dec 5, 2013 - The past few days have been unseasonably mild, almost balmy, but normal temperatures returned overnight. We woke to 21 degrees outside; 54 degrees inside. The match was applied, coffee brewed, and blessed warmth soon filled the house.
