F EELING a little blue? Getting
short- tempered with your friends
and loved ones? Thinking about
removing most of your medically important
organs with a butter knife?
Why don't you lie down
on our couch and tell us
what's troubling you,
as if we didn't already
know.
The problem is the
( very bad word) weather.
Kind of like the Mafia
in those Godfather films,
Mother Nature teases
us with a few days of
normal or near- normal
weather, then, when we
let our guard down, she
reels us back in to the icy
heart of the polar vortex.
It's enough to drive
winter- weary Winnipeggers
to the end of their
wits, or driveway, assuming
they have been
able to persuade their
teenage offspring
to put down the
video- game controls
and pick up a snow
shovel.
Today, for instance, when we should
be basking in a normal high of - 6 C, we
are instead looking at another stretch
of insanely cold weather, with a high of
just - 15 C, a wind chill of - 33 and a 40
per cent chance of more ( take a deep
breath, kids) snow.
On Sunday, it should be sunny with a
brisk high of just - 18 C, and the rest of
the week will be colder, featuring lows
in the - 28 C neighbourhood.
Which is why, on your behalf, we decided
to seek a little professional help.
Joined by Creepy Santa, my threefoot-
tall stuffed Santa doll, I paid a
visit Thursday afternoon to the office
of renowned Winnipeg psychologist
Toby Rutner, an expert in family therapy
and stress- related disorders, such
as winters that refuse to
end.
As we stretched out
on his couch, Rutner
gently assured us a lot
of folks are feeling a bit
under the weather lately,
although he did point
out anyone who drags a
three- foot- tall plush doll
to a therapist's office is
potentially a few clowns
short of a circus.
If you'd like to join us
on the couch, check out
our latest therapeutic
weather video by scanning
the Blippar symbol
in this column with your
smartphone, or by visiting
www. winnipegfreepress.
com. Here's
what the doctor advised
when we asked
for tips on dealing
with The Winter That
Wouldn't Die:
" What we want to do is make sure
the unrelenting weather doesn't keep
us isolated, because then we get cabin
fever.
" We need to conquer the snow and
get out and do social activities... We
need to rejoin the human race. We get
a sense of sensory deprivation in the
winter. We need to break out.
" Challenge yourself to see it as an
adventure. See different people. Stop
complaining about the weather and
embrace the cold.
" Go ice- fishing. Go cross- country
skiing. Go to The Forks, and go see the
ice sculptures in St. Boniface before
they melt."
So that's your challenge this weekend,
Winnipeg.
Get off the couch, put on a puffy
parka and enjoy the final weekend of
Festival du Voyageur.
The fiddling contest starts at noon
Sunday. Find more info at www. heho.
ca.
Still feel like crying like a baby?
Then you'll fit in perfectly at the
eighth annual Winnipeg Baby & Kids
Show at the RBC Convention Centre
Winnipeg on Sunday. Tickets are $ 10 at
Ticketmaster. Helpful tip: Have a nap
before you go.
Later, help your beloved Jets get
ready for the final stretch of the season
by heading to The Forks Sunday
from 1: 30- 2: 30 p. m. to watch the team's
outdoor practice on the Red River
Mutual Trail.
It's cold but it's free, kids.
The prescription for beating the
blues also includes jumping out of bed
early Sunday morning to cheer with all
your heart as our men's hockey team
battles Sweden for gold in Sochi. After
we win, you can stay on the couch and
stuff yourself with greasy snack- related
items while the closing ceremony
unfold.
And if a stray snowstorm happens
to come your way, go out and embrace
it... then punch it in the throat.
Because I'm sure Toby Rutner would
approve.
