After a short holiday hiatus, with too many emotional twists and turns to mention on the open Web, I'm starting my first blog of the year. I'm a little older, a little wiser, and I'm looking for small signs of hope and happiness.
After one of my many blunders two weeks ago, I was driving down the highway at night. As I looked over at the moon, I saw something rare and amazing. I've seen sun dogs before, but this was "moon dogs." On a cold night, with a full moon, where there are crystals in the air, the light around the moon takes on the shape of an elongated diamond. Arcs of light appear on both sides. The arcs are the most visible portions of a halo that forms around the moon. I didn't have my camera with me, but this website has a pretty good picture.
I went to my parents' this weekend. I needed to go back to the familiar, to see what hasn't changed. As I drove home this afternoon, I saw a small rainbow projected among and within the clouds.
Please take the poll. It's a new and interesting Google gadget I'm trying out.

I voted! It was really hard to choose. They were all really fun to read again! Matka
I exercised my blog right to vote! What is your prediction for Ground Hog Day? Some snow is melting today, temp, 42 degrees! That's a silver lining.

Good is good. I would like to see a rainbow. 10% of my friends seen a rainbow. You don't need to go far to find goodness.
