Gray Days

I have definitely been hit in the last weeks with a case of SADD. I sleep more, have less energy, want more carbs. The days are gray and cold with a few rays of sunshine here and there. It's not the drizzle rain that bothers me, just the overall gray, dark sky. Fortunately the weekends have been sunny and warmer, so at least it gets me through the next week. I'm definitely a southern girl. Nothing like warm sunshine beaming down on me. I'm making myself just go outside and find something happy out there. Not hard actually as Portland's lush gardens, flowers and colorful houses make me smile.
