Winter has long been a rough season for me. The cold and gray seeps into my bones, making me heavy and weepy. But this year I am waging a concerted campaign against the SAD. Armed with fresh flowers, cups of tea, walks, handwritten letters, dinner dates, many boxes of clementines (admittedly one good thing about winter), the Carla Bruni channel on Pandora, new yoga pants, a blue-painted wall, and frequent backrubs from the husband, so far I seem to be winning.
