Ice on the leaves
In case I haven't made it abundantly clear, I absolutely hate winter. It is the worst time of the year and people should do like bears and just hibernate throughout this period.
At every moment outside, my body feels like it's shutting down. It's like I'm on permanent energy saving and there's no charger, a.k.a the sun, to do anything about it.
I had the unwanted pleasure of going to the office yesterday because I'm trying to get some favours in and put me in a better position to get any managerial position that opens up.
My short term target is to be a team leader but that's just the start. It's a start that will take some patience but hey, gotta do what I gotta do.
Anyway, let's talk about how winter sucks. It really sucks. It turns everything to shit.
You know how people think hell fire is hot. Well, the deepest part of hell where the devil keeps the worse of the worse is frozen. What if winter is just a decent to the depths of hell and we think we're actually on earth.
What I miss most is the sun. I give that celestial body a lot of stick when it gets hot but I'm starting to see its uses.
Next time I see the sun, I'll say nice things to it. I won't whinge about heat wave or summer again and I'll pay tribute to Helios, if I have to. Please bring back the sun 😣
Even in just a tiny bit of coldness makes me so sleepy and tired already... what more in a winter place! I pretty much would choose hotness over coldness.
I miss the warmth so bad.
Although I disagree with your passionate hate of winter, I have been coming to understand why that’s the case.
Jack Kruse is someone you should listen to. He talks so much about the sun and how important it is for our bodies. What you need in terms of sunlight is different because of how dark your skin is compared to mine. I think it’s a physiological reaction to not getting enough sun that’s making you this way and it makes sense. Our body tells us what it needs!
Because you are living where you are - you should look into getting a sun-mimicking lamp. They are not too expensive on Amazon but they are a good way to give our bodies partial exposure to some of the wide array of spectrums of light that the sun generates! I think this could help you and your wife a lot while you are living there.
It wont replace it entirely, but it should help improve your bodies during the colder months. Give it some research!
