Happy Light

One thing that I have been thinking a lot about is how we are going to adjust to the long winters in Alaska. From what I've been reading it goes down to just 3 hours of light a day! My Mom mentioned the "happy light". I am thinking that this is a must have for when we move. I can't imaging living in the dark most of the day...depressing! And how is my kiddo supposed to deal with that? This is a serious issue.
Apparently, you turn these bad boys on for a few hours a day and they help with energy and mood etc. They work so well that you shouldn't leave them on in the evening because they will leave you a bit wired.
Next on the list, how do people keep their cars from freezing all winter long? Oi
