Good morning, everybody! My god, the sun is out today......
We've had so much overcast the last few days.....

I'd nearly given up seeing the sun and sky again......

:woohoo:

5. Good morning, my dear Joani......
I am so very sorry, my dear....Didn't mean to rub it in!

I actually don't mind the rain...at least something's happening...

But the still, quiet gloom makes me crazy!

Hope the rain passes you by very quickly, my dear....

15. Nice to see you too!
last weekend... my neighbors in the back trimmed some trees that used to block the sun... didn't notice how much was blocked until now... now I'm nearly blinded by the brightness (and loving it).

I'd never make it in one of those towns waaaay up north.....

Thank goodness for sunny SoCal!

Most of the time, anyhow...... :hi:

11. I'm happy for you! It is cold and rainy here!
It was hard to go out in the dark for my pre-dawn swim, but I did it!

Did you see I made it out of the 700 Club? Whew!

26. My dear Metta......
You are so correct...even the gloom is good for some things....

But I need the sun.....I am like a sunflower, and I follow it...

And when it isn't out, then I am more likely to be sad, or unmotivated...

28. Do you have seasonal affective disorder?
We get something like 34 sunny days a year here in Pittsburgh so I've heard your sentiments before.

25. Overcast weather is dreadful
am I'm glad the sun is out for you. I thought southern California was always warm and sunny; at least that's the impression the Beach Boys gave me, lol.

We have had loads of sunshine here, but the last two days have been cold. It was 34 this morning! And, it is still October.

When I lived in Germany it always seemed to be overcast this time of the year. I experienced an eight week stint of constant overcast complicated by an 8:00 - 8:30 sunrise and a 4:30 sunset. This was when I discovered that I have SAD.

27. My dear Left_Winger!
A lot of people were fooled by the Beach Boys, LOL!

I don't mind the cold...it makes me feel alive!

But gloom is something else again......

I'd probably have SAD if I lived in a town where the sun wasn't out much.....


Hope things are better for you, now.......

30. Oh yes
I have all the sun I need. SC is a very sunny state.

For the past three years my school had me teaching in a renovated closet which had no widows. By the end of the day I was either a zombie or mean as hell. Now, I have a new room (actually it is a mobile unit (i.e. a trailer)) with two windows and doors. I have all the light and fresh air I require. Now I am as docile as a puppy.

I used to jokingly call my grandmother "the little old lady from Pasadena" because she always drove fast - very fast.
