    I think that I'll start psychological warfare with these dark days. I'm going to convince myself that if it is dark when I start my day, I am getting an early start on the day's work. :)

    I also think having Christmas cookies with my morning cuppa is another coping mechanism :heehee:


    pull the ripcord on those pants now....:biggrin:

      I keep all the low energy lights on. Keeps the place nice and bright.
      Starting to get the need to plant seed. :)

              There are actual flowers in my garden. Not many, but some. Strangely, that plus the fact it's warm out, seems to be keeping the winter blues away for me so far. Well that plus the fact that I know it will be daylight again soon.

                Today I booked the second of two cottages in Scotland for reconnaissance in the Spring. It's going to be a long time coming though. :doh:

                        Also pretend that I dont go to bed at my normal geezer hour. It's been dark for hours therefore I am a late night party girl..
