The best thing about the future is that it comes one day at a time. Abraham Lincoln

Note:  This has been in my drafts since January.....  And just so I can look back and reflect I wanted to keep it.....

Not enough time... Too much time.. Which is it??  Between being in a 'winter funk' and telling myself that I don't have enough time every time I procrastinate or don't get my 'to do list' all checked off before I start the next one has been a real problem for me since the Holidays ended.  January was a tough month for me...  I really think I could benefit from light therapy during the winter months.  I thrive in the Spring/Summer.  That's when I'm at my best.  So, there you have it..  It took me till February to get my self together....  I finally snapped out of it...  So, thankful for my patient husband/best friend.   I made a list of things that I thought would make me feel better. We even did a notebook that has all of our projects, ideas, trips that we want to take and just things that we think of....  We love 'our' notebook.  That helped alot-to put it on paper and kinda free my mind up.  Next, I started decluttering... I've never been a pack rat, therefore, when things start feeling cluttered--it gets to me.  So, one weekend in Feb we cleaned the entire house from top to bottom... ceiling fans, light fixtures, baseboards, on and on... We've been in our house that we built about 18 months--so this was our first 'spring cleaning' that we've done.  I cleaned out closets, the pantry, cabinets, anything I could think of... Donated a ton of stuff.... I quickly found myself feeling so much better...  My mind was becoming clear again....  I was starting to feel better--like my self again....  I have vowed that next year, to ward these feelings off before they completely consume me..  It's still a work in progress... but as I see all the Bradford Pear Tree's  in bloom I know that Spring is near...  Warm weather, planting, flip flops, bike rides, and patio nights.  Aww... Now that makes me happy...
