The colder it gets, the slower we go

It seems like the winter brings out the turtle in me.  How about you?  Instead of chastising myself this year, I will try to rise a little earlier and give myself the luxury of going at a healthy pace, not running around like a chicken with my head cut off.  Who knows, by spring, maybe I will be rested when I start my 'chicken' thing again.  Better than that, perhaps I can learn to just take my time so I won't miss something.  Make a ripple, take a chill pill, see what happens.
