Blue Monday 2021

[dk168]

Today is supposed to be Blue Monday, allegedly the most depressing day of the year for a number of reasons.

Very much a normal day in my house.

How is everyone? Hope you are ok.

The start of another week, and for me, another room to paint

Honestly, with every day feeling the same, I rarely know what day it is. It’s just a question of keeping busy and getting though the days, then the weeks and waiting to get vaccinated.

It’s nacho Monday in my house. I can’t wait for dinner.

I just went through a three day barometric pressure full on sinus/migraine attack. I'm just happy it's over enough so I can function, kinda.

Nope, had a decent day. Yesterday was horrible, however. Blue Sunday if you will.
But all is well today

I'm having a crappy day. No real reason why, just feel a bit down in the dumps.
I did my workout after work and that helped a bit.
I guess it is a Blue Monday for me.

I once heard that the reason Blue Monday is named so is because today is the day people receive their credit card statements including all their Christmas spending. Not sure if that's true or not. But I did notice it was a tiny smidge lighter this morning and that's good enough for me.

It’s only a Blue Monday as in wearing blue my favorite color.

It’s a good day as every day is that my dh is here with me by my side. He is currently recovering from a total thyroidectomy (last Wednesday) due to thyroid cancer. We’re seeing the surgeon tomorrow for the first follow up. Hoping it goes smoothly and that the biopsy results are as good as possible.

So it’s a bluetiful Monday for us and I’m grateful for each day together.

I was feeling the same as any other day, but now I'm trying my best to be depressed.
Gotta conform.

today have not been great, its cold and snowing, eye appt, dentist appt tomorrow and back to work tomorrow and then I had to take my SUV in to the dealership as I wanted to add the app so that I can enable the remote start and then found out that the entire computer system is still under the previous owners name and now they are having issues getting it updated...sigh...they are keeping it over night but I got a loaner...just been a all around crappy day.

I have a couple pairs of "mood-boosting" sunglasses I wear in the dark winter months:

RainbowOPTX™ | Mood Boosting Color Sunglasses

While some people use sunglasses to darken their world, we use ours to fill our world with light and color. By seeing a more beautiful world, we fill ourselves with beauty, and we have more beauty to give back to the world in return.

They're fun, and that alone is a mood-booster. I have a pair in Rose and one in Aqua.

Gorgeous day here! Sunny and mild. Holiday for MLK JR and got to spend the day with my loved ones. So no blues here!

I hadn’t actually heard of Blue Monday until yesterday when I read something about it on the BBC website! It was a normal day for me, usual chores and yoga class in the evening (on Zoom).

In other news, my husband tells me that January 20th is the coldest day of the year, something else to look forward to!

That explains why I had a low mood yesterday! I had to really kick myself up the a**e to get myself going Hope I feel happier today........anyway, the nights are pulling out slowly but surely
