Winter, a lingering season, is a time to gather golden moments, embark upon a sentimental journey and enjoy every idle hour.

PS: Sorry this weeks thought is a day late. I was intermittently experiencing the dreaded “unable to establish a database connection” comment when I tried to access my blog. Hopefully that has resolved itself now…
Or a lingering time to stay out of the col whenever possible!
That sounds like a good plan to me
Oh, for the days when one could be idle!
I think you should find time to re-introduce them
Echoing Welshcakes. In search of leisure…Maybe dust didn’t exist in those days??? Your tree (form and colours) is always so splendid, Cherie.
I was always told that a little bit of dust meant you had an interesting mind
Thanks for you comment on my tree, form and colour
That tree never fails to fascinate me 
I’d ammend it thus:
“Life, a brief season, is a time to gather golden moments and enjoy every hour.”
I am a compulsive editor.
and I’d probably also amend “ammend” to “amend”…
Ah yes, life is but a brief season, far too brief for compulsive editing!
But I too keep going back to edit my typos. The ones that are only a problem to me
Are these trees in your garden, Cherie?
I have a Canadian quiz for you ,you might like.
Yes that is my back garden
I would love to see the quiz, I am sure I will be rubbish at it though 
The ‘lingering season’ is here for awhile this year, Cherie, by the looks of it. Maybe you’ve already had the worst of it? I hope so.
It is lingering a little I managed to get some pictures of the amazing frost today
A lovely thought and a lovely photo. Like many others, I wish I had more “idle hours”. Winter is well and truly here in Scotland.
I could do with some idle hours right now, but I seem to be seriously rushed of my feet at the moment!
Great photos. Lingering by the fire sounds wonderful- maybe with a cup of hot chocolate while writing Christmas Cards. Have a good week.
I am thinking maybe some mulled wine whilst writing the Christmas cards.
That would be fine if there were idle hours.
I think we would all like some idle hours…
