Winter...

Yes, it's cold, snowy and icy - but when I leave work now, it's still daylight. And when I get home, it's not quite entirely dark yet.

This cheers me up a lot.

I always thought I was okay with the dark, so it's a bit of a surprise to see how happy I am to see it light just a little later. Maybe it's the sense that when work is over, the day is already gone?

I think that's it for me (that the day is already gone once work is over). Hate that.

Yes. It's sort of oppressive.

For me, it's even more extreme ... I finish work less than an hour before midnight.

If I hadn't objected and pointed out the lack of bus service at that hour, my current employer would rather have me work till 1:30 in the morning. :-(

Still seeing the sun as you go home is a definite sign of spring ... even if the outdoor temperature is downright arctic. [I admit it -- my ability to cope with -40 degrees, a legacy of growing up in Winnipeg, is pretty much kaput.]

Well, yes, but you know there is no time of year you'd have daylight when you do home. And presumably you have daylight when you leave for work!

I can't cope with the cold weather now either. I grumble mentally every moment I'm out of doors. Let's hope it doesn't last long.

That's it, I think. I know when I get home from work, and it's been dark for a couple of hours already, I'm ready to go to bed. Even if it's only 6:00pm.

Yes, exactly - half the time I don't even want to think! Just to sleep.
