Every winter, as the days get shorter and nights get longer and animals get ready to hibernate, I get ready for what I call the 'big sads'.
But this year, some things have kept them at bay, and I made a list to remind myself of them all winter. Thought I'd share. Tell me yours!
Giving thanks to Easy Wanderlings for all the music. This year I couldn’t stop listening to Center of the Universe. #SpotifyWrapped
