Fedora, decluttering is such a pain, but when it’s done, it feels great. Why is that? Like weight loss and exercise. It feels much better to have done it. (Like trips to Costco- my dh loves when I’ve BEEN there but hates to go with me)

Kate, congrats to you too…new series! Whoo hoo!

I’m with you, Bonnie. Started watching the daylight on December 22…we don’t walk at night, either, especially with a small dog on a leash. We have mountain lions, and when I’ve got Rufus I always feel like I’m trolling with an hors d’oeuvre!

Congrats on the new release! Here’s to sunnier days.

Woohoo, Bonnie! Lots of good stuff to look forward to from you this year As for goals, mine are holdovers from last year–declutter (which is just huge, which may be why I haven’t made much progress yet…) and to better track my reading… My TBR is enormous, and I need to figure out how to better tackle it And yep, I’m looking forward to the longer days already–more sunlight, please!

Yes, NM…a real honest-to-God newsletter, with my own header and everything. Now, I just have to get some news to go IN it.

I’m glad I’m not alone in this whole daylight thing. It’s dreary, it’s depressing and when you live in the PNW and it rains all the time, we can go weeks without seeing a real ray of sunshine, even at noon.

And Jackson’s a ton o’ fun and a true companion. He’s sneaking in as I type. In a couple hours we’ll be walking him for another hair-do and he’ll lose some bulk just by sheering.

And Anitra, I hear you about getting up in the dark. Way WAY too much of that.

Like you, I don’t do resolutions. They never last. Goals, however, work well for me.

And I can’t wait for longer days. I’m so tired of my feet being cold and getting up in the dark . . . I could turn on a light but I’d rather have sunlight.

Jackson’s a cutiepie!

Did you say something about newsletters??

I just love Jackson. He’s so cute.

We have no lights or sidewalks either, and deep ditches so I don’t dare walk my dogs after 5pm.

I too can’t wait for the days to get longer. I hate seeing 6:30pm on the clock and yet, feeling like it’s 10:30 because it’s already dark out. And I really need to get myself a natural spectrum light because I’m so depressed in the dark. And that affects everything I do. *sigh*

In the meantime, I’ll get on my treadmill too. I need the exercise.
