Larry, thanks for another Free Sunday and thanks GiGiMac for last week's challenge. Both were super.

This is about the right time for folks in winter climates to come down with a cases of "Cabin Fever" often expressed as "I think I'm going stir crazy!" It happens. Folks have been cooped up, weathered in and longing for warmer weather. Those of you in warmer climes might have a different version - maybe you've been laid up for a while or have had company from one end of "winter" to the other and it's beginning to drive you nuts.

This challenge is all about some of the things you do when storms or something else, keeps you inside for a stretch. How do you spend the "darker" months? House guest overload? A recovery from "something"?

I do a variety of things. I'll start off with an exercise routine, if I can't get out to the gym or my walking road, I "HOUSE WALK" for 30 minutes. It's boring, but this is how it goes...

More "Stir Crazy" antics to come - and yours???

I read a comment from a fireman that said it was the force of nature, not a lack of resources. Many years ago we had a woods fire that consumed a barn, a firetruck, several outbuildings, and a lot of woods. The crew of the firetruck had to run to escape the flames and our crew at the barn hid under their engine while the fire blew overhead. You don't fight fire when the wind is blowing like that...you simply follow along and try to save lives and what little property you can. Prayers for all concerned!
