Rainy days have a funny way of making us feel like every day before and after was and will be just as gloomy. Why is that? Well, our brains love to live in the present, and we also thoroughly enjoy feeling bad for ourselves. No? Just me?

The upside to the gloom and doom of an overcast day is that you can stay inside, chow down on your favorite family recipe, and chillax until the sun shines again—all guilt-free! Don’t let anyone guilt trip you. Doesn’t that sound nice? You have something to be proud of, friends: You made it through the year of January! Whether your month was drier than the Sahara or wetter than the rain pitter-pattering on your window sill, I’m sure you’re glad to have made it through the first month of 2025 and even more happy to have made it through another week of the winter slump.

Gloom and doom don’t have to be forever. That’s why we’re supplying you with just the right amount of memes to form a technicolor rainbow that’ll brighten up this rainy day, and every rainy day after that!
