Sure, it's very, very cold, but the sun came out. It always comes out eventually. The amount of energy I feel today is probably doubled compared to yesterday. The REAL sun is out, not the fake sun of my special lamp. Note to self: research whether or not I'm sitting in front of my sun lamp long enough.
Today my doctor ordered a blood test to see if I am deficient in Vitamin D. He said most people are who live in this part of world. I live in Illinois, and the windows are GRAY. I have to remember to take care of my physical health. Physical health plays a large part in my mental health.

Remembering the Blue Sky
It's another dreary sky here in the Midwest. I must, must remember that on the other side of the clouds is a blue sky, and the sun is shining. The sun is always there, but hard to see because of the heavy gray, gray clouds.

Sunlight Lamp is Wonderful
This fall I have really started to use my sunlight lamp a lot more than I did in previous winters. I am finding that increased use has helped keep the grey and dark skies from turning into a grey and dark mood. If you haven't heard of these lamps, check out information on treating SAD (seasonal affective disorder). SAD info usually contains information about light therapy.
