I am finding my executive functioning is quite low at the moment due to quite a few challenges at the same time and the limited light. A lot of my forms of relaxation require good light for my vision to be good enough. Each week at work ( I do a maximum of 4 days) feels a challenge at the moment, so I try to celebrate a week achieved at a time.
I try to find positives in nature that is mostly on the decline at this time of year. My positive for this week is the smell of damp leaves.
Does anyone else find this time of year difficult?
I enjoy reading people's funny experiences on here, but they are sadly lacking at the moment.
I had enough of the UK winter 2 years ago so moved out to Brazil with the longer term plans to spend the summers in the UK and the rest of the year in Brazil (autumn - winter - spring in the UK become spring - summer - autumn in Brazil due to it being in the southern hemisphere).
It worked out very well and in spite of the last week averaging 37C during the day I would sooner endure this than the storms and frosts in the UK.
I have to say it is odd to be sat on the beach on Christmas day in a pair of trunks, sweating it out under a sun umbrealla and drinking old beer - odd, but good.
Though I don't like the winter that much I could never survive over 30C heat! We had 31 last year and I nearly died lolol literally was in hospital for a few days.
I like some parts of winter like the frost on the trees and the sound of hard leaves crunching under my feet when walking. I love the Christmas music as well when we get to Christmas.
