There's always those back issues of "On The Water" to look over again. Think of it as getting a head start for the coming year.
I used to hate the winter, I mean REALLY HATE the winter.
I thought that there was nothing to do, saying "I'm bored", "How long until spring?"
Once I found a winter hobby, it changed my whole outlook.
First it was skiing, then snowboarding (until it got too costly)
and then ice fishing and beginner plug turning.
The key is to find something that's intersting for you, and make time to do it.
Now, I actually look forward to the cold of winter, since it will lead to ice fishing for some of the prized catches in the region.
Once you begin to "see the light" you'll notice a change in your general view of things. Just try not to worry TOO much, but do try to have fun. It help relieve stress.
Good luck.
