Yesterday, several of you shared your solutions to beat winter’s gloom and darkness. I’m doing all I can to follow your advice.
As Sean suggested, I took a walk and enjoyed being outdoors. The Old Firefighter and Janet reminded me that winter is a good time to think and ponder and complete projects that get crowded out by good weather. I haven’t gotten the daylight light bulbs yet, but they’re on my shopping list.
Here’s what I do on sunny days, like today. I move my laptop, which usually lives in my office in the northwest corner of the house, to my kitchen. I work at the island in front of the big south and west corner windows and soak up the sun. I feel a little like a cat sunning itself on a window ledge. Most of the time, I resist the urge to purr.
But, winter is looong along my gravel road, and not every day is sunny. So I could use more gloom and darkness buster suggestions or I won’t outlast the season. So keep your ideas coming.
In the meantime, let this thought cheer you. On December 21, the amount of daylight will start to increase. Only 32 more days. Wahoo! I can hardly wait!
