What do you guys like to do when you're feeling down to pick you back up?
Take a bath, listen to Pandora radio, watch a cute kids movie with my son, eat chocolate, call a girl friend, go to a scenic place to take pics of something that catches my eye... or load up on house chores to get my mind off of whatever is bothering me. On occasion I can talk it out with my hubby and he pulls me out of my funk.
Write out a list of all my blessings and things I'm thankful for. I will also just take a day off and veg. Like stay in bed and nap and read and just take it easy. Hope you feel better soon!
pray. It puts things in perspective and gives me a place to vent. I know that whatever is stressing me out, God can handle it.
Same as Missy F, except I choose a white chocolate mocha. Unless the kids are in bed, then it's a glass of white wine. Self-indulgence hardly ever fails to raise my spirits.
I do crafts. Crochet, Polymer Clay, or read. Bury myself in something else to get my mind off whatever is bringing me down.
Exercise or talk to a friend.
Hope you are ok!

Get my toe nails done or my hair done. A new haircut and color usually pick me up. Also new make up can do the trick.
I get an overpriced Cafe Mocha, and take an hour to read. :)
Shake up your routine a bit. Get enough sleep and excercise. The winter blahs are among us. Get a mani/pedi. Date night..Go out with a friend. Get away for the weekend. I am in the same rut...Just scheduled a dinner theather with some family. Looking forward to it. So what I mean by that is make plans or do something you look forward to. {Hugs}
Check out Kristen Wiig in Saturday Night Live's the Lawrence Welk Show on YouTube. If you aren't laughing after that, call your doctor : )
Hope your day gets better!
