This morning I reached that moment. I realized I don’t just live in the PacNW, I have actually converted to a PacNW mindset.
Let me set the scene: I am walking my dog. It’s quiet. The sun is shining. The birds are chirping. I am thinking about the fact that it is the end of June, one week left, and where I am at on my goals for the month. Which projects will I get done and which will run over into July, displacing July goals. What can be done about it?
Then it hits me. The solstice was earlier this week. I realize we are losing an average of 6 minutes of sun very day now. I might just crawl back in bed and cry.
I feel the same about living in England sometimes… There are still a few weeks of sunshine to fill up on vitamin D!

Yup, I realized that yesterday…it always bugs me that in the midst of the best weather when I should feel the most energized I subconsciously react to the shorter and shorter days. Although in some ways it becomes a relief for me since I become nearly manic close to the solstice. I can’t shut down and rest the same. Maybe it’s because I was born this way – Seattle native. š
