You know, Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD) is a pain. You might even say it is… sad. I never really consciously notice it, though, until the sun comes out and my mood starts to lift and then I realize how much the winter weather had been affecting me. The past couple weeks I’ve had more energy and more cheeriness than I had all winter total. I’m hoping the good weather holds for a bit. (It won’t though… this IS Seattle, after all.)
Some of the cheer is from having my friend Susan back in town, of course. Email and blog postings can keep you somewhat up to date on what someone is doing, but it isn’t the same as a hug and face-to-face conversation. Hoping work doesn’t keep me from spending some more time with her while she’s here. And hoping she keeps up the cooking she’s been doing!
The SharePoint team posted a notice on their blog last week that a bug in Service Pack 2 is causing SharePoint installations to be set to evaluation mode (as in, the license expires after 180 days). Oops. Fortunately, the fix is easy.
