  1. It's quite amazing how the beautiful weather of the last few days lifts the spirits!  The glorious warmth, blue skies and NO WIND was just perfect.  Everybody looked happy, the trees were showing off their new green leaves and there were flowers everywhere.  Today, we are back to normal - wind, grey skies, threat of rain.  Sigh!!

  2. What a perfectly awful day!  Nearly 10 am and still not really light!  When are we going to get some sunny, frosty mornings?  My poor garden is waterlogged, the shrubs and other plants drooping and to cap it all, the pesky squirrels have dug up most of my lovely (expensive) spring bulbs!  At least if it was properly cold, they would be frozen into the earth!

  3. What a horrible, miserable day!  I thought this morning that I wish I could just hibernate now until the end of February!  Actually I don't really mind the days after the shortest day that much - at least it is getting better every single day!

    If we ever got a say in it, I would scrap GMT - it would get light at a stupid hour in high summer which is way worse than it being dark at 9am in the morning...

    Everyone has their preferences.  Personally, I wouldn't mind if it was light even earlier in the mornings in the summer.  I hate, hate, hate the dark mornings - they are awful now and we still have another 2.5 months of it getting worse! 

  5. This time of the year makes me feel very melancholy - I hate to see all the lovely summer flowers dying off, the leaves starting to turn, and everything shutting down for the long winter ahead.  I definitely feel more sluggish as the mornings and evenings get darker and darker - ugh!  I don't like it!  Much as I dislike October, November and December, I am a bit different from others in that I actually don't mind once we get to January as the days are gradually lengthening and you know there are better times to come!

  6. Today was the first I have thought about countdown to the shortest day!  I detest the fact that the mornings are getting so dark and although I sat in the garden this evening, the sun angle has gone down to what it was in early April.  I hate it so much!
