What makes a day fabulous? A day when you lay your head down on the pillow to go to sleep and you literally smile.

It could be any number of reasons. A great dinner out and Barnes and Noble with Chad, Alec and Alyssa. Accomplishing almost everything on our to-do list at work. New running shoes. 

But, what I really think it was that made Friday so great was this...

Going from weeks and weeks of this

I'd never really given it much thought but there really is something to the concept of Winter Blues. So of course I had to google it for more information... Seasonal Affect Disorder (SAD)

Hello? Did I not tell you? I knew it! We had a tremendous Springy day today ourselves. Things are slowly but surely changing. The sun is setting right now and it's taking its time, so the days are getting longer. I'm on a seasonal happiness high too. I think it can be devestating to us nowadays, because what little sun we get in our busy lives is precious...when we don't get even that, it's tough. xoxo

oh I so agree on the difference that giant sun ball makes! It sure has been nice seeing it out, and Barnes and Noble would make any day great! What new shoes did you get? I just picked up some new Nike but haven't wore them yet.

I wore Nike forever. Nike discontinued the shoe I used and I never could find a Nike replacement that I liked as much. I switched to Saucony and so far so good.
