Anyone else in a funk?

[FNPhopeful]

Anyone else just hating school this semester??

I guess its just because its new classes to get used to, but I dread going to class now. Its also the first time Ive had to take my kids to daycare in order to go to class, so thats making me feel like crap.

I just wanna break, but I know I cant stop now Im almost there....

i think there are a lot of people in a funk this time of year--it's winter (ok, not in australia), darker, colder, holidays are over, it's a long way to any sort of holiday (president's day doesn't really count!), all there is to look forward to is whether to use a pink or a yellow highlighter, pages and pages and microsoft word!

all sorts of little things that wouldn't ordinarily bug us are now trying to bury themselves under our skin--and it's working well for them, too.

hang in there!!!! pick up a reader's digest and read all the jokes. do a few silly things--wouldn't you just love to tie that kid's shoelaces together (the one that was tapping on your chair--and don't sit in front of him anymore, by the way!).

day by day, you're getting there. don't forget that in the mundane things you have to deal with, ok? there are a lot of us moldy old nurses cheering for you!!

Seems like lots of people are in the same boat! I wonder if the weather has anything to do with it? Anyway, it's good to know I'm not alone in this. I thought maybe it was an indication that I'm just not cut out for this at all.

I think the weather has tons to do with it.....I have much more energy and a few less pounds on my body during the spring/summer. I am like a plant and need sunshine I am so glad that we don't live up North...anything below 60 degrees makes me want to hibernate and my metabolism and brainpower shuts off Alot of people suffer from seasonal depression and it's definitely true for me.
