Thankful That The Daylight Hours Are Getting Longer

[Mella]

I'm totally with you on this! I love the longer days, if even slightly longer :)

These are blooming all over the lawn; I live in North Carolina, way out in the western mountains, USA.

I am very glad for the longer days. Although I don't have seasonal affective disorder, my other mood disorders get worse in winter. So the sunlight and warmth are a welcome relief, meaning the harder part of my year is starting to come to a close.

Now when I get up at 7am it is not pitch dark

This was me, this morning. It was so nice!

I'm also feeling safer coming home in the late afternoon/evening, because it's light.

I often wake up at 5AM, but by 7AM it is lighter here in North Carolina too. Also, we have been getting LOTS of rain! And my rose bush has little leaves on it!!!

We've had so much heavy rain and snow I've stopped even looking at the plants. I'll have to see what's happening out there!

I saw bunches of purple flowers down in the damp areas this morning, they were such a welcome sight!

Hashi :) (means smiling at you)

I also prefer longer and warm days. They keep me active. Understand about winter.

I can't wait for the time change. I don't do too well with the early darkness.

I am in Australia, so we get lots of sunlight. But if it rains for too many days on end, the lack of seeing the sun out, sends me out of kilter. Probably because I am a outdoor person, but it does have a mood downer effect on me.

I can relate. I have seasonal affective disorder and I had someone tell me about vitamin d and daylight light bulbs, so that is what I have been doing and I noticed it has helped out alot.

I cannot wait for the time change either. I love the sunshine. I do not do so well on rainy days either.

Apologies to those in the southern hemisphere who are heading in the opposite direction,

No way, I LOVE winter
