Thanks! Those are some great ideas!
Thankfully, we've been having some freakishly nice weather for October. We had those couple days of darkness, but I've been OK so far. However, I'm not sure how long the nice weather will last.
I might use your ideas and buy the lamp, too. I work from home at my desk all day, so I'll be able to sit by the lamp for a while with no problem.
