Hankster- that's a great idea.

Reader- Oh, I know what you mean about the dreary and cold winters. It's hard enough to get out and do things in the cold when I feel well. Add depression and it's nearly impossible for me.

One thing I try to do is have plenty of fresh flowers in the house in the winter. As soon as the Christmas decorations get taken down, the vases of tulips go up. It's a small thing, but it does help.
