Life in the Northwest

Exploring new places, meeting new people, and discovering a few brew pubs along the way.

Keep on keepin on.

 
Today is one of those days when I am struggling to pick myself back up.
I get this way now and again.
I  have even blogged about this sort of feeling before.
Last time I blogged about it I had at least made it through the holidays.
I am working at not taking my mood out on those near me, focusing on the Christmas cheer all around, and waiting, hoping this passes soon.
Sometimes I think I get down because of the lack of sunlight this time of year, maybe it is not being able to get outside and play or dig in the garden.  Maybe it is missing family and friends.
I don't exactly know.
What I have learned helps me get out of this funk I need to blog,
to get out and take some pictures,
and look for little escapes throughout the day.
So I cranked up the kerosene heater, turned on the outdoor lights, have some Van Morrison tunes in the background, and am blogging on the front porch.
I'm dreaming of warmer days, summer nights, and a garden in bloom.
The Best is Yet to Come.
