It is 6:00 pm and it is darker than pitch here in Allendale, MI. I don't know about you but this is the hardest time of the year for me!
If it was summer, I would be thinking, maybe I'll go for a ride on my horse. Maybe I will go mow the lawn or go take a dip in the pool I would have another 4 hours of daylight!!!
Being the eternal optimist that I am, I have decided to look at it another way!! I only have 33 more days until December 21, 2008--the shortest day of the year. Which means that on December 22, the day will be longer than it was on December 21. Just a few precious minutes longer, but hey WE ARE ON THE UPSWING THEN!! I live for the upswing!!
And here is another way to look at it . . I have all those dark hours to sit in front of this computer and get to know all of you and figure out this whole Active Rain thing. By the time the longer days role around, I may even have figured out the listing router. My outside blog might be working. Dare I say . . .maybe I will even get a lead from all my work in the dark. See . . the dark is a good thing . . . it keeps me working . . .right?!!??!?
I can make it until then--I know I can. It really isn't that bad when you consider that it is only a paltry 7 weeks that it seems like there is more dark than light. It is only 33 more days and it will be getting lighter every day!!!
Do I hear an AMEN?
