1.25

No! This month is so close to being done! Well this has been the longest January ever. I don’t know why, but it went on and on like a bad number one hit. I know I don’t like winter, I know I don’t deal with the long, short or pieces of it. Snow is pretty and all but blah! Cold, dark or sun setting when I am trying to drive, I can’t get into it. Here we are, this month has had 7,000 days and I am done… alas winter isn’t ! Don’ t even get me started on February. I did do things to make it better, but it is like pulling teeth.

I will implement things to get through, well I do have the best intentions! I am planning gardens in my mind. I just picture summer and wait I guess. I am good at helping others cope. I threw myself into a snowbank and made a snow angel to make others laugh. I would rather just go to the beach, but I can live there in my mind. Thank God for imagination. I am not staying on the couch, but I don’t go far. As for the snow angel, I did wear a shin length coat, snow pants, hat , scarf and mittens. My trusty UGGS that are the only warm foot wear I have ever owned. They have no grip, so hiking would not be a good choice if I want to stay upright!

Going forward, I will be okay. Even though the months are long, I have better coping skills. Check in end of March, because that is when I can finally think without the winter brain fog that accompanies my hibernation and it starts to finally lift. All fellow winter sufferers, stay strong, we are half way there! Winter WooHoo!
