Hello February

Everyone is right about January feeling like a year; one comes down from that post-holidays high (or haze), and right into the gray of the month.

I actually call the months between January and March the "dark months" - I come back to work all energized, only to succumb to the gray and the slog. It affects me work wise (the grading just piles up) and home wise (I just end up on the couch not doing much).

Maybe it is SAD, but I know myself now, and try to prevent that from happening because when it comes to work, I have to admit, I would be doing the bare minimum and enter survival mode.

The same thing happened home wise as well: I started strong with using the Peloton app for my workouts (and LOVE it), make a list of things to blog about, get all excited about the new year and then...things happened.

These past two weeks in particular were pretty rough - I won't go into much detail, other than there were a few things that happened that were affecting me personally, and contributed to being in more of a funk. Thankfully, things are on the up for the most part.
