This article, The Secret to Enjoying a Long Winter, by Jason Kottke couldn’t come at a better time for me. In our new reality the sun sets at 4pm and will continue to drop till the winter solstice (22nd of December). We need recalibrate our mindset to the norms of this place.
@kaa That is the worst part of living in this part of the world. I’ve been here my entire life but I still have a hard time with the almost constant darkness of winter. On the upside, almost midnight sun in the summer.
@MrHenko I'm actually looking forward to the changes. For nearly a decade now my days, evenings and weather have all been predominantly the same. This change is welcome :). I just want to make sure it doesn't get to me subconciously..
@kaa after four years back in temperate weather the joy of rainy days has grown a little thin, but hasn’t disappeared.
