Fall is one of my favorite times of year. I love the smell of the crisp air and the fall colors.  But with the Fall comes something else. I have seasonal affective disorder and I can usually feel my symptoms kick in around mid-august. I become very edgy and irritable, sad and overwhelmed. All I want to do is crawl under the covers and sleep. It’s not a good feeling trust me. So to try and get a jump on things, I usually start back on my meds the end of July and hope for the best. All this rain and gloom isn’t helping either. I need to get out of the house. We went to the pool yesterday for a family swim, but it had been cancelled because of “maintenance”. Very disappointing. We did get a free hour of bowling, but it just wasn’t the same.  I think I may take the girls to the library this afternoon just to get out of the house. Hubby is back to work today, so it’s just me and the girls. Gabby’s 2nd birthday is next week and we are having her party on Sunday, but I just can’t seem to get into it. I may just end up buying a cake and picking up some pizzas.
Ho-hum…what to do? what to do? Guess I will enjoy my morning coffee for now and see what the day brings.
