Longest Night of the Year

 In a few minutes the sun sets. 

These last years, I've been tied to the day cycle. I can't be active outside of daylight hours.  I know when the sun rises and sets. It is like a pull. 

If I wake before sunrise, I can browse the internet or some other quiet thing in bed, but not all the sections of my brain are on. It's a mistake to try to do anything that takes decision. Or anything with too much walking around the house. 

And sometimes, I sundown. Which was even more confusing until I realized what it was. 

So the progress of the year is more impactful on me than most.  Midwinter day.
