Default Six days

I was examining the calender and noticed that in six days it will be
winter. Which on the positive side is okay because it bring us that
much closer to spring.
Also the shortest day of the year ( December 21st ) gives us hope
because the days only get longer from that piont forward

You've never sat in Professor O'Neil's class. Those were the longest days
ever.

Well, if you're not a morning person - (and I'm not), the length of daylight
is less important than the all-important sunset. The shortest length of
daylight is Dec. 21, but because the sunrise and sunset are out of synch,
the sun has actually already begun setting later and later each day (after
Dec. 12) YIPPEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
(well, yes, it's only about 1 minute later than a week ago, but ,
still...........)

So they buy those special light bulbs and sit under them for a few
hours every day. Takes care of SAD (Seasonal Affective Disorder).
