Monday blahs

United States
February 3, 2025 10:46am CST
Happy Monday Everyone! woke up to snow this morning (ugh). I'm so tired of winter and just feeling blah most of the time. Our groundhog said 6 more weeks of winter which gets a bigger ugh from me. Of course I don't put any faith in what a groundhog predicts so I'm hoping for an early spring. I didn't sleep well last night and then fell asleep and woke up to my alarm going off. I just feel so groggy this morning and my coffee hasn't worked it's magic yet. Don't think I'm going to accomplish much today which is a perk of being retired...nothing that has to be done. I started a new book over the weekend so I'll probably read this afternoon and maybe take a nap. That's my boring day in a nutshell. How's your day going>

It’s a better day today for me than the weekend was. I’m sorry you didn’t sleep well though. That’s hard on a person.

You could come visit for a few days, if you want to get away from the cold. We're at 68F right now and are supposed to hit 75F by late this afternoon. From the weather map, it looks like all the cold air systems will go North of us until next Sunday when we drop back down to highs in the upper-40s. A week long warm-ish visit doesn't sound too bad, does it? I hope you have a good day.

@Marilynda1225 The temp here made it to 72F this afternoon. I was asleep but Pretty said she stepped out to get the mail and it was lovely. We'd love it if you came to spend a few days visiting.

I wish I could just teleport myself there right now. Your temperatures sound wonderful and my old bones would certainly be happy. Of course visiting you and Pretty would just add to it being fun.

I don’t pay any attention to what the groundhog says either. I always thought it was a 50/50 change he would be right but from what someone said it’s much less accurate than that. I finished a Danielle Steel book yesterday and started a Nicholas Sparks book.

I got up with my 5 a.m. alarm, as if I was going to work. Then turned on my heated throw and sat in my chair and slept an hour and 45 minutes. I was feeling blah as well. I felt better when we hit the road for Bob's appointment. We were at 60 in Emporia.

Some days the blahs just hit. Glad you were feeling better by the time you were on your way to Bobs appointment.

It went pretty well actually. Everything seemed to go according to plan. How often does that happen?

Yes it was just a case of the blahs (for no reason) and not the blues.

Snowed here too. I did a happy dance. You know me. Why didn't you send your snow to me? You know how much I love it. Reading is a good thing for the winter blahs.

The post office screwed up again and my snow landed here instead of being forwarded to you I'll try again when more is expected in the next few days

I can relate. I began with stomach issues last night around 10pm, and was up about every hour or so. I called in sick today. The stomach issues have finally stopped, but I haven't eaten besides a banana and an apple and peanut butter. I feel weak, and very tired. I slept for the majority of this morning. I will try to stay up for as longer this time, so that I can sleep tonight. It is above freezing and really foggy here today, perfect weather for sleeping.

I'm sorry you aren't feeling well and those stomach issues can really take a toll. Hope you feel better today and got a decent nights sleep. I wouldn't be surprised that the weather is what gave me a case of the blahs.

Snow? Yeesh. We had 70s yesterday. But it's back to the 40s today. Oh well. But no snow and most of what we had on the ground has finally melted.
