Blue Monday?

So today is apparently Blue Monday, the name given to a date in mid January said to be the most depressing day of the year.

The day allegedly falls on the Monday of the last full week of January where the weather, debt, the time since Christmas, failure of New Years Resolutions, low motivational skills and the need to take action are all used in a calculation to find the dullest day! All nonsense of course. I very much doubt that today was blue Monday for many people who had a day off work or school to enjoy the snow and the weather!

I myself had a good blue Monday and haven't felt at all depressed!

 

The man behind the idea is Cliff Arnall, there is some understanding for this day and the usual Monday blues combination with winter blues.

Arnall has also calculated that the date of the happiest day lands around the 20th June.

 

So Have you had a Blue Monday?
