January Blahs by Sara Humphreys



January is my least favorite month. The holidays are over and every year I have eaten my weight in chocolate and imbibed far too much wine. It's cold and dreary out and my house, sans Christmas decorations, ends up looking a little bit like it belongs in an episode of Sanford and Son.

January feels like the walk of shame.



It takes me a few weeks to pull myself out of it because spring feels so far away. February's not bad because the boys have winter vacation and we usually go somewhere as a family but January just sucks.

So....every year I find different ways to shake the winter blahs and nothing does that better than a few laughs.  Where can you be certain to find funny stuff? Yes. You Tube. So here are a couple of my favorite funny videos.






Have a laugh on me and remember...spring will be here soon.

Dream on...

Thank you for the giggles this morning! There's just something about a baby laughing or a puppy doing tricks that'll put a smile on my face every time.

I woke up this morning to discover that the snow we've had since Christmas is finally gone. Time to start looking through seed catalogs!

Sara Humphreys said...

Hi Carolyn--Glad I could make you smile :)

Sara Humphreys said...

Thanks, Shana!

Hey Cheryl--Seed catalogs...now that gives me hope that spring isn't too far away. Have fun!

Oh, that is me, its me! January is my least favorite month, too. And I don't know why but the 31 days in January seem a whole lot longer than the 31 days in July and August.

Thanks for sharing the pick me ups!

Babies and puppies! Thanks, Sara. I can be found mooning at the World Famous Random Kitten Generator, too.

I always really look forward to spring too. Thanks for the laughs. My youngest daughter had that same kind of laugh. She only laughed like that for her older sister and our dog :)

Hey, Sara, Internet has been down because of storms, so I've been out of commission. I can deal with any day of the month--though when it gets REALLY hot and no rain for weeks and everything is burning up, I long for some other month!!!

Cute little guy. :)
