I understand perfectly. What I try to do weekly: email & snail mail others to encourage them, sympathy, birthday, any type. Keep them in mind! ; Get some sun daily; do something that makes you happy, remember Winter is a season, and seasons come & go; In everything Give Thanks! I try to write or say and gratitude list, be it ever so large or small! have at least one task that takes you out of the house, if it be just on the porch~~ daily. hope this helps a bit! I attempt to tackle new projects; Christmas presents that give me a sense of purpose & love to others.. my accomplishments are few, but my purpose needs to be pure! Love is always good!

Cleaned out your closets lately? Cupboards? No one said spring cleaning has to wait until the spring. And when you're done your place, you can come do mine. :)

I crochet. It relaxes me. I make blankets, doilies, last year I started making fingerless gloves and boot cuffs. I also bought a sewing/embroidery machine a few months ago. Although I haven't had the energy to do much on it yet. I started a faery garden outside this spring and have a bunch of twigs/rocks and other craft items so I can start making some things for it for next year. I even bought clay so I can make things for it. Pinterest has loads of wonderful ideas! I like variety puzzle books, too. Do you like playing video games? Try to find an assortment of things to do so you don't get bored. Best wishes!

You know, I was thinking about this question after I responded and I remembered something. Right after the holidays, my "adopted" mom would put a puzzle (a big one) out on the dining room table. She didn't use hers and I don't use mine. Every time you came in the house you had to stop by the table and put a few puzzles pieces together, and any other time you wanted to. It was fun! So maybe this winter I'll put one out and see what happens..except Meiko will probably keep taking the pieces apart !LOL

I do a lot of craft things thru winter lucky for me I have a job that allows me to work from home I knit,crochet, do crosswords make loom bands cook and freeze a lot when I want to do something different I colour in my adult colouring in books I also karaoke every other day as well as do Sudoku when the days are ok I like to go for a drive in the country it gets very cold where I am but we rarely see snow not in our town anyway so getting out is an option I have a treadmill for the wet days so try to exercise at least half and hour every day hope this all helps give you some ideas xxxxxgentle hugs to all
