Sometimes the first month is the hardest.  Mentally, we'll soon be at the point where the days start getting longer.  At least that's what I try to fake my brain into thinking Smile
Dude, great point about the placebo effect, IMO. Nothing stronger than a persons own mind when it really believes something. I do the same thing with repeating to myself that the longer days are coming. I also hit my mind with as many hard facts as I can on the subject. I have a poster of 'sunrise/sunset times" on my wall. I replace it every year with the latest one. Even though the days are growing every so slowly longer right now (about 1 minute per day), I am psyched over that fact. It gives my mind the impression that we are heading toward the light at the end of the tunnel. Regards, RM
