Things have been pretty quiet around here over the last few days.
There's been things that have come up that has taken a lot of my attention lately, but that hopefully will calm down soon.
But I noticed a pattern this time of year, it seems many of us get the end of winter blahs about this time of year.
Where some of us just don't feel quite right. We will get quiet and look for solitude.

Looking around me though, I'd never know that spring is right around the corner. We still have snow on the ground and its snowing today.

Do you go through bouts of ickyness this time of year as well?

I do. Winter is my least favorite time of the year. And after it has dragged on I am ready for warmer days.

Yes, mainly because I live in a state where I don't see the seasons change at all. Considering where everyone else lives, having a Winter in the 70's-80's would be a blessing, but not for me, it sickens me. Sorry but I had to say it.

I find any season or weather that goes on too long tedious. But winter does seem to be singular in the scope of the doldrums which it invites.

I do love it when it is fresh and new, though!

I'm hibernating and pretending I'm in Mexico. Seriously.

I have bad depression right now and hardly ever open my blinds or go outside.
I always get this way this  time of year but it seems a bit worse this time.

Actually, I took time today to go outside and play with the dogs and walk around a bit. It's freezing cold and I couldn't stay out for long, but it did help.

Elf, I don't know how anyone can live anywhere that theres really no season. I would go insanely mad!

Tell me about it  Tongue
January of last year I went to Georgia to visit relatives, I almost cried. I saw trees with leaves falling! I saw brown, yellow, and red leaves.

That would be heavenly for me. Constant warmth= insane amounts of jet skiing. I may still be riding if it was year round warmness here. Not to mention Ghost Hunting in abandoned buildings with no power in the cold is a bummer.

Here in beautiful historic downtown Arizona, one can have the best of both worlds.

In Phoenix we have palm trees and winters with daytime temps no lower than the 50s. Drive two hours north to Flagstaff, and you can have full-on freezing winter complete with majestic peaks and skiing.

In my winters in the northeast, I've gotten the winter blahs bigtime. Seems like my body spent half its energy just trying to keep warm. I decided that year-round warmth is good.  Smiley
