For anyone who has never lived with almost-around-the-clock darkness, I can understand that my many posts about darkness and light gets a bit tedious. If not outright boring.
Trust me when I claim that you would feel the same way if you never saw daylight – other than through a window during the week – and needed to have lights on at home all of the time on weekends… My body overproduces melatonine which makes me constantly tired until the days get noticeably longer.
In other news. Loki seems to be on the mend, but he is definitely more tired. A 30-minute walk is quite enough to tire him out…
Hibernation is a concept that makes sense. It’s too bad our life rhythms no longer match the seasons at times like this.
