Darkness

It's funny how, every year at this time, you are equally surprised by how quickly it gets dark. Like today, when Michelle and I went shopping around 3pm it was bright outside, but on our way home, around 4,30pm it was already dark.

It is the same thing every year. When the winter comes, most of the day is dark, yet we still begin a lot of conversations with "Wow, it's already dark outside!".

Speaking of winter - Christmas is in just a few days more than a month. I actually wrapped the first Christmas present today! I still have a lot of Christmas shopping left, but at least I've taken the first step :)
