Last weekend it was five below, this evening I was sitting out on the front porch, enjoying the latest New Yorker on a fifty-degree evening, in a sweater and a light jacket. Lovely to get some fresh air again. Lovely to have daylight last past five o’clock again. No matter how dark December sometimes seems, the light and the warmth come back as always ….

I'm a writer and editor based in Livingston, Montana. I moved to Livingston from the San Francisco Bay area in 2002 in search of affordable housing and a small community with a vibrant arts community. I found both. LivingSmall details my experience buying and renovating a house, building a garden, becoming a part of this community. It also chronicles my efforts to rebuild my life after the sudden death of my younger brother, and closest companion, Patrick in a car wreck.

Agh! you just reminded me THAT I NEVER GOT MY NEW YORKER THIS week. The fact that this bothers me means I must be hooked. I keep hoping that the next issue will be one of the great ones. . .
But, what you say about the light. . . I was driving home the other day and suddenly noticed. . . it was nearly five and not all the way dark yet!!! And I thought: Hooray!
