Daylight savings was last week and now it's dark when you leave for work and dark when you go home. Ugh. Winter is coming. Seasonal affective disorder (yes, its actually shortened to SAD) is a real thing. And it starts getting really real when you start seeing Christmas lights everywhere but you still have to wait for Thanksgiving to be over. Everything seems a little bit on the sucky side and coffee is not helping. What the hell do you do?!
Most sucky situations can be an opportunity to revamp your tunes. And if you're too lazy to do it, we've got you covered with Songs To Make You Feel Good. It doesn't take much to lighten up your mood. A bit of Louie Armstrong and a dash of James Brown will work wonders. Add a little 2 Chainz and well...lets not get too carried away. Here's to feeling good.
