Guess what, ladies and gentleman?

THE SUN HAS MADE AN APPEARANCE.

That's right, after a ridiculously long hiatus, the sun is back in action and that makes me UBER HAPPY. (Sitting in a park enjoying the sun as pictured above makes me super DUPER happy!)

You know that phrase, "You don't know what you've got 'til it's gone?" Yeah, it's kind of like that for me.

You see, I lived in California where the sun shines without hesitation. Then I moved to a dark, dreary part of the world where the sun disappears for at least half the year. 

When I lived in California, I never took the time to appreciate how good the sun makes me feel. But as soon as it was gone, I missed it something fierce. (Seasonal Affective Disorder is a real thing, guys!)

Now that the sun is BACK, I love and appreciate it more than ever. It makes me feel so good.

If you live in a sunny place, take a moment to just let the rays hit your face and feel the warmth.

It's such a simple pleasure, but some of us don't have it often :)
