Doers And The Winter Blahs

This is the time of year
many of us
struggle with the winter blahs.

People who don’t know us
will tell us
to take it easy,
to go watch a movie
or disappear into a TV show.

They’re not doers.
They don’t realize
that for doers,
doing nothing makes
the blahs worse.

For us,
the best way
to shake the winter blahs
is to do something,
hopefully something
we can complete.

I wrote a short story.
A buddy of mine
built a dog house.
Another buddy created
an awesome spreadsheet.

Doers feel happiest doing.
Fight the winter blahs
and get something done.
