post holiday funk

It seems like everyone I've talked to over the past 2 to 3 days is in some sort of mood.  It seems to vary from person to person.  Here is some of what I have heard: depressed, heavy, moody, emotional, grumpy, lethargic, sick, like maybe I am getting sick, tired, bored.  Personally, I've been feeling exhausted, run down, and bummed out.  I have no real reason to be bummed out so I'm gonna blame it on the post holiday funk that I seem to get every year.  Yup, all those parties are over, the treats are gone, routine is back, and the dark has really set in.  The dark.  It's so dark here.  Our house is nestled against a north facing hill and the sun does not touch our house from November until probably March.  It's a damn good thing that this house is temporary.  Then, there is the rain.  Usually, the rain doesn't bother me too much but right at this very moment I am dreaming of putting my feet into warm, dry sand on a hot beach in some far away land.  Here is the weather forecast for Bellingham this week:



Pretty exciting huh?  Looks like we'll be spending some time indoors.  Well, let's all just weather these blues together and get through this funk.  Seems like a good time to plan a trip.

  1. warmer than here... we've been trapped in the house for quite a while (high 20s, low 30s, too cold i think for our new little pumpkin!). i hope to get outside later this week, it should be in the 40s. and that will bring me a smile, if no one else!
