Hello Spring, goodbye darkness…

I am so happy that it is finally spring! There is so much to look forward to but I have to say seeing the sun has been at the top of my list. I know a lot of people suffer from SAD (Seasonal Affective Disorder) but I have noticed over the years that I am much more affected by long term darkness. I have always loved the sun, but I am also a huge fan of a rainy day, a good thunderstorm or the quiet beauty of the snow falling. But I NEED to see the sun every few days and this winter we went weeks and weeks between sightings! I was so excited for May to begin as we usually have sunny skies and temps in the high sixties to low seventies but this year we had rain, a little sun but COLD, more rain, a little snow and now more rain. Not complaining because we do need the precipitation so to get away from the same dreary scene we have spent most of May camping in our RV on my hubby’s days off. We have had some warm sunny days and some beautiful rainy days on the coast but the change of scenery really made a difference, it was gorgeous!  I think we finally have some spring coming at us for which I am very excited and we have a big vacation coming up so I have lots to do in the coming days but I wanted to jump on here and post since I have not posted in months…it was a difficult fall, holiday season and then I fell apart but am finally I hope, back on track on my journey. With the summer quick approaching I am so excited for farmers market season and all the amazing veggies and fruits we get in season and with that I plan on sharing at least a couple good recipes a week on here.  Right now I don’t imagine that I’ve had to many viewers as I have been absent for a while myself. I plan on being present on here and in my life more than I have been and I think it’s a necessary step in my healing and recovery.

From now on, even in crisis I will get on here and post and I hope that someone else will see this and maybe it will help. At least that’s my hope!  Until later in the week I wish you a Happy Memorial Day and have an awesome week!
