Light and Dark












The presence or absence of light has a tendency to change my mood. I find myself 72.8% happier on sunny days than cloudy days. I love bright sunshine streaming in my window when I clean the house. It motivates me, drives me, and generally perks me up.
All of that being said, you can probably understand why I didn't stay very long in rainy drizzly Portland.
I am ready for the days to be longer again. I struggle with the winter hours of darkness. I long for the summer days when the sun is just starting to go to bed at 9:00 pm. I want to go camping, and swimming and walking outside.
Give me the desert heat and the long days.
Anyone else out there having cabin fever? Or is it just me?
