Yay! Glad you got some sun. I have SAD, too, and winters can be really brutal (especially when we lived in ND for 4 years!) My lightbox is my friend! Some years a little medicine to help, as well, is needed.
For me, movement in small doses is best (Fibromyalgia), so I set my timer and do 20-25 min writing/arting/computer stuff. And then 25-25 min doing physical things, house chores, play with the dogs (those are the bothersome kids who make me get up and do things when I don't want to! And who make me feel better, generally after I do!), when the weather is better, walking out to the garage or greenhouse.
A good balance of is needed all year 'round, as this is the schedule I keep pretty much all year, with an occasional day where I dig deep to get a bunch of physical things done, knowing I'll pay for it for the next 3 days!
My hubby keeps wanting to move to Alaska, but I don't know if I would survive!
