I have to tell you, this is normally my personal least preferred time of year. However, as all of us head into the long, brutal wintertime season, I begin to struggle with my fragile mental health in a significant way; yes, I have seasonal affective disorder plus it plagues myself and others for the entire frigid season. However, on top of that I struggle with the stress of overcoming horrific snow storms plus brutally frigid air with freezing temperatures. However, if you have ever lived through a midwest winter, you are used to six weeks of ice frigid air and it is nothing to sneeze at. However for me, the worst part is trying to dig our car out of the driveway when the air temperature is brutally cold. You cannot bring your forced air gas furnace with you when you have to shovel through numerous feet of snow. Then even once you get back inside, your central heating plan barely seems to make a difference after you have been frozen through plus through! This is why I’m extremely grateful for a new work schedule this year, as working remotely this wintertime season means that I don’t have to worry about the ice-frigid tundra outside our door each afternoon. I don’t have to trade our high quality central heating plan for unmanaged sub-zero air extremely cold temperatures at 5 in the afternoon. In fact, I get to sit in our house in the comfort of our central heating plan for as long as I want. Whenever I decide to go dig our car out of the snow, I can work up the internal heat to tackle the ice frigid problem. Best of all, sitting around at our computers plus relying on our central heating plans sounds like the most amazing way to spend our winter. For once, I don’t think if our seasonal affective disorder is going to be such a big problem.
