Feeling the Sunshine

We had a speaker today at MOPS who is a counselor.  I've been thinking about speaking to a counselor lately but just haven't got around to it.  I asked her what to do about this bout of blues I'm having and she told me I'm still "postpartum" and it's hormonal.  Hum....but I don't fit into the postpartum depression category.  She thinks it might be the lack of sunshine and  recommended I start on some vitamin D3 as well as a vitamin B Complex.  I went right to Rite Aid and bought them ($1.77 for both I might add...couponing ).  I took the vitamins (and my prenatal I should always be taking) and sat with my lunch in the sun.   Oh how I love the sun!  I sat there for 20-30 minutes just soaking it in and eating my lunch and listening to my fish tank! LOVE it!  I like the sound of quiet....no TV, no radio,....just silence (and my fishtank)....  The sun makes it so much better and I already feel better.  Could just be psychological but it's better than not.  We'll see what my vitamins do for me over the course of the next few days!
