Thoughts and boredom

Due to my injured knee, I spend a lot of time at home these days. I have been doing a bit of tutoring, but basically, I can't really do a lot, especially nothing that involves walking a lot and that means I have no choice but to spend a lot of time at home. And I have a lot of time to think, about many things - including this blog.

To be honest, when I began to write, I wasn't sure which direction this was supposed to go in - and I'm still not entirely sure, but it should maybe be a tiny bit lighter and more positive than it used to be. Right now I'm having a hard time sticking to one topic and would rather write different entries on different topics. Maybe one day, I will be able to settle for a general direction that I want to go in. So far, I can practise writing a little and can try to work out how to be a little more creative on here. Which isn't easy at the moment since even sitting at my desk for longer than thirty minutes is quite hard and makes my knee hurt. And it's not like I find many different topics to write about when I'm forced to stay home all day. Outside, it is mostly grey and getting quite cold at the moment. To be honest, I don't really feel like I'm missing out on a lot when it comes to the weather and being exposed to it outside. However, the not being able to go to many places isn't quite as easy to deal with. I feel like I have suddenly become an old woman who has to plan everything that she does very carefully.

Generally, winter always becomes a little depressing after Christmas and New Year's eve. January is still okay, but now it's almost February which, to me, is one of the most despressing months of the year. February is grey and cold, a time when everyone is just sick of winter and longing for spring which is still so far away. February means being stuck in this gloomy, evil season which seems to be considerably longer than the calendar says it is. Starting next week. The best time to hopefully have surgery and then look forward to spring!
