Hi Mair,
I'm tired and my brain won't produce a decent message at the moment. But I wanted to say "I hear ya" to everything you wrote. I feel like I've got to get my buns in gear to make things happen so that I've got at least something positive to show for each season. Although really, I think that making it safely through tough seasons is an accomplishment for all of us.

> I can identify with alot you've said. I struggle through the winter; If I can make it through the holidays relatively unscathed, I invariably get depressed March when I've reached the limit of the amount of winter I can safely tolerate. However, in my part of the world winter doesn't really abate until late April. The promise of spring with warmer temps and longer days really does lift my spirits. So maybe I'm best in the spring. I do ok in the summer (certainly better than winter) but I can very easily get depressed then too. Like you, I see the years slip away, particularly when my birthday comes in August and I start mourning all of my lost years. Also it does depress me to see other people on vacation or making good use of the nicer weather, while I'm working. At some point I'm likely to also get down about all the things I didn't do over the summer, - house projects mostly. I'm sure I establish expectations that are bound to fail. Of course then fall comes and I have to start worrying about the winter.
