Why Does My Jaw Hurt?

say that in "Solstice," ago "sun"

Hugo seems unhappy in the midst of all this snow. And say we're only on December 19. Winter does not begin until 21 at 11:38 p.m., when the apparent position of the Sun seen from Earth deign to reach its northernmost extreme, thus causing a new winter solstice !

Frankly, I do not like to dwell on the weather. I prefer the one that actually happening, because it is still less (com-) understandable. But finally this year it seems we are well served. No one can really believe that this will eventually improve, whether short, medium or long term. If you want my opinion (but that's just opinion): we're screwed! It

are the little annoyances that affect us all, of course. Mainly traffic problems. Two days ago, a friend slipped a total loss ... in the end. No material damage, but - anyway - not funny! From our side, our supply of heating oil declines dramatically. Impossible for the moment at least until our truck arriving vessel. Finally, let's say it could happen ... but probably not again. We are watching an unlikely thaw when the snow never stops falling.

In all this, neither our friend nor we are most unhappy. She had secured "omnium" (as they say in Belgium) and - apart from the fear and inconvenience - it will come out with it. Ourselves, if there were more than oil, yet have a quantity of wood that will allow us to heat the main rooms of the house for at least a month! No cause for alarm unnecessarily.

But what about those who - for whatever reason - find themselves on the streets without shelter or other real future? What about those who are stuck on a highway, professional or otherwise, land or air, without hope of moving towards a finish that never stops does not happen? What about those who do not even have a little oil or wood to consider somewhat warm? What about those who see all their professional activity blocked by these white flakes? What about ...?

The probability of having a white Christmas is growing by the hour! Big deal! Me, it makes me rather mope!
