YAY - I hate these short days and it's awful thinking that it's only going to get worse before it gets better. So only 8 weeks to go...

My mums birthday is the 21st December, the shortest day of the year. I love the fact that I know the days will be getting longer after that.

Dark mornings, dark evenings, feel like living in a cave.......hate it  Crying or Very sad

Squiggle, for that, you get to sit on the naughty chair and wash your mouth out for saying the C word.

I was prepared to forgive you, squiggle, because you reduced the pain of long evenings by a whole week in one go BUT that last post......

My OH likes to say on the day after midsummer (every year, without fail) "the nights are drawing in". Hilarious.
