The Solstice Slump

It’s that time of year again. No matter what I do, my energy levels have bottomed out, my mood has nose-dived and I’m on the verge of losing my sanity over insignificant details. There is a hole in my outside room roof put there on purpose by an idiot; I have rats in my garden; the shoe rack has collapsed; the coats are now just thrown on the floor; my persian rugs are DAMP goddamn it; my house is still small – insanely small; I am treading water daily and slowly submerging, tired by trying to continually pedal.

I’m done. This year has worn me out. I’m calling a moratorium on all things. I’m downing tools. We’re are on homeschooling holidays. I’m not ferrying anyone to any class. I have got some secret project things to work on, a hot water bottle cover to knit, and a quilt to finish hand-quilting. And a family to visit.

I am signing off till after New Year here. I’m out of juice so I’m hibernating until the mojo is a go-go again. Feel free to join the Facebook page and instagram feed where I will probably be around to chat. But until then, have a great christmas, solstice, new year, and I’ll meet you back here sometime soon.

Take care, friends.
