Default Anyone else

have the winter blues? I absolutely hate this time of year. I'm constantly in a bad and irritable mood. Money is always tight, because of the Holidays and I can't even smoke which makes it worse. Ugh.....Sorry just venting, this is the kind of stuff that makes for sleepless nights lol. So who else is suffering from winter depression?

(ps no wise cracks from you warm climate folks )

I'll refrain from the warm comments but I feel your pain about the holdiay blues. Sleepless night aren't worth it. Live life to it's fullest.

I wonder if they call it the winter blues because thats what color your fingers, toes, and nuts turn while shoveling piles of crap from the driveway?

Thankfully I have a wonderful girl in my life along with a great puppy which makes it easier.

Case in point...had someone today tell me she hadn;t worked all year. Can she still get something called the EARNED INCOME Cedit. Uh no, you must have earned income....

She just didn;t understand.

Holiday financial woes always suck. Going through that now. Other than that, winter is great here. I like the cold. Thank God for the garage.

I didn't even overextend myself this year, it's just when the account gets below a certain threshold I start to get nervous (for no good reason). It doesn't help when basically I took 2 weeks off (work was extremely slow because of the holiday) and when you work straight commission, no work = no pay so I now feel like I'm behind now
