For your amusement I thought I would share about how I handle Winter.
- I don’t (Winter is hard! I want sunshine and beaches 24/7)
- I own appropriate Winter clothing which allows me to go outside and not die
- I snort Vitamin D (Well, actually I drink it … except for that time I choked on it and it came out of my nose… what is the opposite of snort?)
- I open every curtain and blind in our home every single day (This allows me to see all of the dusting I am not going to do)
- I do my makeup and hair in front of a ‘happy light’ which results in some pretty groovy makeup (those things are BRIGHT!)
- I watch the frozen poopsicles accumulate in our back yard with no intention of dealing with them until Spring (does this count as ‘coping’?)
- I move my body … whether it is from my bed to the couch or from my couch to the gym … I’m going to take the win
- I don’t hibernate. Life continues on as usual except just add in horrible, no good, very cold temperatures (I. AM. CANADIAN.)
- I still eat the rainbow but often I have to rely on the frozen food section … which is ironic because it is cold out and frozen food makes me cold. (also, frozen Kale is still Kale)
- I complain. A lot. But also, I know Spring is coming. It always does. If I have to white knuckle Winter, then so be it because Spring will come.
