Thank you for your article. You have said a number of interesting things. I find that if I keep busy with hobbys and my house and my flower gardens it is easier to get thru the SAD days, not just sit around and watch tv like many people do. When I see something I have accomplished like a room that got messy and I finally took the time to straightened it up, it even makes me feel better everytime I walk into it. B........
