Hope your mom gets back to the house so that she can more easily be with your dad. Though with all the power outages up there, he might be better off moving in with her. Most facilities have back up generators.
The need for festivals at this time of year has a known psychological element. Partying when SAD is highest helps a little. And so does lighting candles and eating latkes (carbo loading for SAD). Draydel games are fun too. The trick is to know that is what is needed and USE it. Not mourn for what is missing and make your SAD worse. Unfortunately, most people do the later. *sigh* Tolkien's Birthday is Jan 3 - One should do a Birthday toast to "The Professor", take a sip, then sit down and finish the drink. Oh, Robert Luis Stevenson did write a lot of books that would make for a fun party. Pirates, I'm channeling Pirates.
