this morning I started a new activity…

for each of the next 24 days I am going to read and think on one of the cards that I received last year for Advent…

I really enjoyed the process then and am looking forward to this time of reflection each day…

I am going to start each day with a time of looking at the artwork and contemplating the quote on the back…

today I was thinking about how much sunshine can affect my mood and feeling of well-being… when the sun is shining everything seems more upbeat and positive…

where I live, we used to have a lot more sunny days… they are particularly helpful during the cold winter months, as even the cold seems more bearable in sunlight and blue skies…

I was reading some data which showed we averaged 51% sunny days between 1981 and 2010… for the past few years we have noticed that there is less sunshine that’s there used to be…

this morning, as I look out the window, the sky is blue… gonna be a good day😊…
