Awful day here as well . I sorted out the toy boxes - 2 bin liners full of (1) outgrown toys for charity shop and (2) for the dustman. Felt good

My aunt always tidied her cupboards and drawers on a rota.
I try to do something in the house in the morning then either read a book or my family tree. It's a good excuse to give myself the time.
I agree it can change your mood if you look out constantly at clouds and rain.

I agree it was horrible dark damp freezing, I tried to take a walk but I cut it short there was no joy in it. I watched a film ‘Bank of Dave’ it cheered me up a feel good film.

I love days like this.
The Summer is an anathema to me.
The brightness, the heat, the sensory overload.
For me , this is great

Honestly, for the first time in a long time the day has been so gloomy, grey, dark, cold, bone chilling, damp and just YUK! I have been 'inert' and actually had to set up an action chart with smiley faces to get through the day! What do other Gnetters do on days like this to invigorate themselves?
