Ode to Day 21: Professional lessons, Winter Solstice and a little black pug
I was among the many relieved to have reached Winter Solstice and start looking forward to gaining my six minutes per day. Strawberries of integrity shared a solstice definition, Bonito Club shared with us his confused eggplant and sardonic smile gave us some ways to continue to beat the Winter blues all the way to Spring.

Sometimes I think that questions and the asking of questions, are more useful than having answers. Sunday was day 20 of the 30 posts in 30 days blogging challenge. Congratulations on reaching the two thirds milestone, and here are some questions about the day’s blogging. This is multiple choice, so there are 10 questions followed [...]
And still they blog! Day 19 wrap-up
