Feeling a bit poo

So, I am staying on track...just...but feeling lethargic and sort of lumpy! Is it because the nights are drawing in? Winter is coming.

I hate being negative, it's generally not my style at all.

Just feeling a bit poo....

you and me both, and also a lot of other people I know. It must be the change in the seasons? can't think of any other reason....

Yes, I think it is that...ah well, what can we do?! I just feel like I have two personalities, a summer one and a winter one!!

I'm loving the heat, I always do, and plan a more casserole style menu too, different veg, too. When the weather changes, I think summer seems more carefree, less clothes and stuff too

I heard that about 5 percent of the population suffer from winter depression and another 5 percent feel less energetic from autumn to spring.

It is supposed to be related to the lack of daylight which affect the chemistry in our bodies.

I love summer the most, but I am not very affected by the change in seasons. I think going to bed at 10, getting enough sleep and exercise, and placing myself near a window when I work, makes a difference. But I am not sure. It is all so subtle.

thats interesting and those are all good things to do, I'm going to try and get outside as much as possible!

To be honest I am probably also being effected by other things going on in my life, but I do much prefer the summer to winter. I'll let go of summer and get into the new season in time I'm sure!

I'm definitely a spring and summer person too 😕 luckily I can still get out for a walk as in not working 😊

Food wise, I like soups and casseroles. I also LOVE Christmas and will soon start thinking about that, especially sewing and making which keeps me out of mischief (aka the fridge) on the long dark nights 😊 Lol 😂
