5 Ways to Escape a Winter Rut

I've been in a real funk lately. At home, at work, just an all-around winter rut. Is anybody with me on that one?
Here are some ways that I escape the winter rut's hold, also known as "what I've been up to lately"...
Drink champagne on a Tuesday, while watching Frozen. Because why the hell not.

Get allergy tested and find out that after 10 years, you're not really allergic to shrimp, crab or lobster. Sigh.

After above appointment, buy yourself something real nice to make up for acting like a crazy lady at restaurants the past 10 years. (I now apologize to those I was rude to when asked the question, "Well how bad is your allergy?".)

Rock your ugly Christmas sweater. Because its the happiest time of the year.

And lastly, drool over pictures your sister sent you from her trip to Barbados with your parents. 

Nevermind that last one. Realizing you couldn't a) go on that trip to Barbados because of real-life adult problems, like deciding to buy a house, and b) see your sister, puts you right back into the funk.
But then Mother Nature decides to drop  a boat load snow and I'm quickly reminded how lucky I am to live in a place that experiences all four seasons, including winter. So I should probably stop my complaining.

How do you deal with the dreaded "winter funk"?
