One of the many good things about being forced to take the two weeks that comprise Christmas and New Years off is that those are easily the dreariest two weeks of the year for going to work.  The Sun is at its minimum life span in the sky if it decides to show its face at all and the weather is usually cold and snowy.  I get to completely bypass those foul yearly occurrences.  And when I go back to work today, I am greeted with a light sky in the morning and a light sky in the evening.  Sure, it’s already dark by the time I get home, but some Sun is certainly better than none.  It really is amazing how much a little sunlight can alter one’s mood for the better.
