Winter

I don't mind winter. I love to curl up in the evenings with a cup tea all warm on the couch. I even love getting outside once in a while for a good ski. The one thing I don't like about winter is the lack of sun. I could probably count on one hand the number of days that we've had sunshine this year, and it starts to get to me after a while. I have to admit, I'm starting to look forward to the warm days of spring. Those first days where you can finally open your windows and feel the fresh air blowing through your house again.

We've been very blessed with good health so far this winter. Lyric has a bit of a cold right now, but on the whole we've all been very healthy! This has been a real treat for us :) We haven't had that flu or cold that most people have had go through their house...and hopefully we won't!

I have been feeling very unmotivated lately. Not sure if it's the grey days, or what that's about. I know I have these seasons quite regularly where I just can't seem to clear my head. I've been reading some of my favourite blogs by other doulas & midwives etc. and am blown away by the way that they are able to write lately. With so much clarity & poetry that sometimes moves me to the point of tears. I can't seem to motivate myself to even figure out what's going on in my head most of the time right now. It's very frustrating.

I'm supposed to preach my first sermon in a month. I hope this fog clears before that day so I don't just sit there saying...ummmmm.

Am I the only one who has times like this, or is this a normal thing?
