SAD
SAD is *not* kicking my can this year.
Go figure.
Actually, I have. Figured that is. I get up at 6:30AM to take Thing 2 to school. We are in the car and driving by 7AM--when the sun has just risen. For the first time in... ever? I am actually getting the benefit of the sun that early in the day. Before this, I would have been sleeping till 7:30 and not leaving the house till 8:30 or so. When the days are this short, that is a LOT of sun to miss out on.
No panicky feeling of the sky closing in... yet. :-) And it's already half way through November! Really, this is unprecedented. I like it.
Gosh, last year it got me half way through October.
One other thing that I am being mindful of is opening the shades. Every bit helps.
