Everyday brings change. Some good, some not so good, and some we barely even register.
This year I have noticed greatly a change in me since daylight savings time. It used to effect me but I would never have said it majorly impacted me. This year I’m thinking things are different. It wasn’t until I was at dinner with my cousin/niece (she is really my cousin but calls me aunt because my nieces are her age and that’s what they call me) that I realized with my job change I wasn’t getting the sunlight like before. I used to drive a school bus on a daily basis. In the morning I got the sunrise and in the afternoon I got the sun setting. Now I am in the office and come in well after sunrise and leave after sunset without really getting any true length of sunlight.
As we talked about this she asked me not to get into the new fad of winter sun bathing. I fervently assuaged her fears. So how to now get more sunlight and vitamin D. I already take 5000 units a day. Guess there will have to be a temporary increase.
Then we shall see what the verdict is. Well it is off to bed once more to try and get 8 hrs of sleep. I’m in my last week of work with my current job. It’s a good change. Just lots to do.
Sleep well and just breathe!
