Re: Beating the Winter Blues

I find wearing comfy, oversized sweaters and lots of coffee (or hot chocolate or tea, whatever hot drink you're into) and going to coffee shops A LOT to draw or relax or socialize. It seems to help me out!

I don't mind winter usually (though I do hate being caught in the rain). But I find it a good excuse to just sit inside with the heater on, snuggle up in a blanket and watch TV ^_^

I agree @Richardman! It is a great chance to snuggle up and enjoy a good movie. I also like it when it is sunny and I get the chance to enjoy it without being burnt.

I am also excited though that there is only one more day of winter remaining and then Spring! I love the changes in season

Around my house we have lots of cherry blossoms blooming, it is delightful

@ClCl The sun is always nice in Winter, but then by mid Spring it starts getting a bit too hot.. Then I need to retreat back inside again!

For about two weeks in Spring we get pink blossoms on the trees along my road. I'm looking forward to seeing them, haha

@Richardman, I hope you get a chance to walk along your street and absorb some sun, before the blossoms disappear and the sun gets too much! I have the same issue by mid-september, finally I can show skin that has been hidden away under jumpers and then it ends up burnt

Ahh, i agree! There's not much that is more beautiful than lots of cherryblossoms @ClCl @Richardman

Richardman · ‎31-08-2015

Hey @maxcshanks! Oversized uber comfy clothes and coffee... what more could one ask for?

I like to go for walks along the beach (if it's not raining)! And drink too much coffee!

Winter is coming around again! Thunderstorms all night here. Made sure I sat in the sun today for a bit and went down to my 'pot plant garden' for some zen time

LOL As an Aussie from the south, I have indeed begun to pair my thongs with fleecy jumpers.
