A Happy List of Sorts: Things that are helping me get out of a winter rut...

It's cold, gloomy and gray outside, and a big storm is on it's way bringing with it more cold and gloom.

I'm trying my hardest to not to sink into a winter rut and give in to seasonal depression.

These are some of the things keeping me sane during the long stretch until Spring...

- dreaming of the sunshine and warmth.  

I find having something to look forward to makes time go by a little faster. :)

 - hugs from my students.  they always know how to brighten my day without even knowing it.
  

- this site. every single post makes me smile and is oh so true!

- being asked out on a date. my friends and I were discussing how guys never ask girls out on dates anymore, when an old classmate contacted me and asked me to go out... maybe dates haven't completely gone out of style in this digital/social network age we live in.

- thoughts of a possible snow day...the only thing good about snow and terrible weather. :)

- browsing VS swimsuit collection, and dreaming of all the places I could wear those swimsuits.

- mid-afternoon power naps. 

- Just dance 2 and Wii Fit.  If I'm going to be stuck inside I might as well have something fun to keep me moving and exercising.

- and while I'm stuck inside, hilarious shows like Modern Family help fight the winter blues.

- and last, but certainly not least, listening to summer music and mentally planning summer trips.

what's keeping you happy and fighting off the winter blues?

and remember, send me your Happy Lists
