Words . . . and No Ice

Since the 25th of December, I've been cracking ice, basically morning and evening, although evening is more of a stir the slushy event. At any rate, this morning would have been the 13th day to crack ice, except there was none! There was just a bit of snow though. Just enough to make the ground white as I watched the sunrise this morning. I have another favorite thing, besides aiming to not leave the place for a couple of weeks, and that is having my bare toes in the snow. I go barefoot most of the time, but there is just something awesome for me, in being barefoot in the snow. I went out this morning to get some firewood, and found myself wishing I'd brought it in before the rain and snow. Just a little FYI: it's exceedingly difficult to get wet wood to burn. The barefoot walk in the snow was wonderful, though.
As I've settled in to the mode of sitting by the fire and writing, I found myself very caught up in how officially I declare this time and this project. The project itself is a huge deal to me, and this time set apart in the winter months on the homestead project has produced my favorite books. I began "Sweet Memories and Happy Plates" in the winter, and thoroughly enjoyed writing "Simply Abundant" in just the three short months of winter. Now I'm on a project that I am reeling with regard to our society and the norms we have established, and there's an urgency that maybe a few others are sharing my perspective, but unsure of their course of action.
I truly believe this book I am working on now, should challenge every standard we have as to what is good and what is not. So, in all of this, I had to get set up to write by my fireplace, then the next thing, since I am working on a pretty important piece of literary information, I had to have a word to describe what I'm doing. I picture this entire event rather dramatically, like placing a big sign on the gate that says closed until . . . and leaving a voice mail that says I will return calls after . . . In case of emergency, I can be reached at facebook between the hours of 3 am to 5 am Sunday through Friday, CST. Then when the manuscript is finished, I will present myself and this valuable information. This information is life changing and challenging, it has been for me anyway. Okay, the drama is running high now, as I authorbinate. That word represents a new confidence and now as I write, it's like a meeting in which I cannot be disturbed. If I had a secretary, they would have to tell all visitors, K D Elizabeth is in authorbination. This is a literary work in which I have been given the authority to offer a solution to our sad and sick nation.
Well the reality is, the information is valuable and I have over half of the chapters past the rough draft form, but my importance is insignificantant and G-d loves me so much I get to work from home and enjoy the closest thing to hibernating a human can do. I'm staying on the place, putting chore clothes on over my jammies to tend to critters and get firewood, then back to just jammies, laptop by the fireplace, snuggled in my living room. I'm wribernating.
