    Hope your day gets better!!

    I will go get a mani/pedi, drive to a lake or pond and do some hiking, soak in the tub...music up with a glass of wine, or sit on my back deck with a good book! :)

    I love to laugh. I try to think of funny things, find the humor in an otherwise less than perfect situation (yes, I accidentally baked two dvds that I needed to bring back to the video store and instead had to clean my stinky oven of melted plastic... yes, the baby took of his diaper at nap and threw poop on the carpet... the list goes on..:laugh: ) I also like funny movies, listening to dance music on Pandora, and remembering (since I'm Christian), This is the day that the Lord has made, I will rejoice and be glad in it. I hope your day gets better. Wishing you lots of sunshine and laughter!!:flowerforyou:

    Booze. Not even kidding. Cheaper than a shrink and always helps me relax and stop stressing or moping or whatever. Booze in the hot tub is even better. Or booze and sex and the hot tub. I like to keep it simple.

    Fudge it I've not got a hot tub.

    Dog love - my dogs always seem to know when I'm sad, and go out of their way to cuddle.

    Or reconnect with nature in some way - beach, woods or back yard. Just being outside where it's quiet away from people to collect my thoughts and regroup.

    I'm kinda having a crappy day too. I won tickets to see my fave singer (Gary Allan) and tubing. Hubby doesn't want to go. My mother and my daughter both have to check with their SO before they can say they'll go. (WTF?) I hate not having RL friends. :frown:

    I try to remember it will pass, and then take the day for myself!
    -I like to relax, move slow, have a cup of coffee while I watch something. I love criminal minds and I love the movie clue.
    -A nice bubble bath with some essential oils like eucalyptus always helps!
    -A walk outside, or a good long hard run normally helps too!
    -Coffee with my family or a friend, getting out of the house always helps!

    I Hope this gives you some ideas, feel better :)

    I used to go for a bike ride. I'm trying to get myself back to the point where I can ride again.

    Nothing made me feel better than flying down a dirt hill on my bike!
