LEAP YEAR- AN EXTRA DAY

In 4, one day more. So being a Leap Year, we are given that extra day in February. I like it.

I find the winter months do go quickly. I like the time to take some winter pictures.

If winter is embraced, then it does not seem so long until Spring. We do not waste our lives wanting it to be over.

I like the opportunity to do indoor stuff. Get projects started and others finished.

Watch movies. Read. Write. Have a good nap.

Eat soups and oven roasts.

Hot or cold drinks. Hot chocolate. Chilled white wine.

So tomorrow begins another month. But this blogger will enjoy the last day of February.
What are your plans?

LEAP YEAR

Leap year always brings interesting possibilities. One more day before the first of the month bills are due. Special birthdays for leap year babies. Adding another day until Christmas. Astronomically correcting real times the earth rotates in a year! Or whatever the real scientists have to say! How did the name Leap Year originate? What not call it- add another day to the calendar? What are your thoughts? What would you call it, if we were going to change the name? Anyway, enjoy the day!

NANA SAYS WELCOME TO ALL THE LEAP YEAR BABIES

Some people think it is really cool to have a leap year baby while others find it disheartening for their little one. It is what it is- another joyous day to be born. I know several adults that would like to have been born on February 29th- then they would not have to lie about their age!! Hum!! I do not know anybody born on this date. Do you? How do they feel about it? Anyway Nana says a welcome baby born any day- even leap year is a wonderful addtion to the human race.
