2. Find a song that really makes you smile and play it now...play it now...play it now... (repeat as necessary) Ok...there are a LOT of songs that make me smile, but this is one of those goofy ones I just can't resist. And holy schickies, people, did Neil Diamond REALLY look that good???? I mean, I used to be a fan back in middle school or whenever it was before I discovered Gordon Lightfoot, but I don't remember him looking like THAT! Oy...deep breaths...
(Three hours later...after watching every Neil Diamond video on You Tube...holy schnickies...)
4. Watch something that makes you laugh...old I Love Lucy reruns...old SNL reruns...maybe this...
5. Have a collection of your favorite cartoon anthologies handy. My favorite is Bloom County.

6. Snuggle your favorite furry creature. In the absence of said furry creature, a teddy bear will do quite nicely, unless, of course, you want your face licked. Technology is great, but they've yet to create a kissy teddy bear.
7. Go out to eat. Your favorite food at your favorite restaurant. Or have someone you love cook you a special meal. Comfort food, that's what it's all about.
8. Count your blessings. That's right, you know you've got 'em - write 'em all down! You can do it right now - I'll wait (while watching more Neil Diamond videos on YouTube...).
9. Take a long nap. Or have a good cry. Or have a good cry then take a long nap.
10. Remember, the sun will rise tomorrow on a bright new day - maybe the best one yet!
Your list is perfect! I can't believe I didn't include visiting a yarn shop on mine!
ReplyDeleteLove the toe nails. Today we have a humidex of 38'. A migraine day for sure.
ReplyDeleteGreat post! I saw Neil Diamond in concert in 1989 while I was in Denver. I was in the 3rd row center front....... and yes, he is/was that good looking.
ReplyDeleteI'm a big fan of #3. Since I teach yoga I spend a lot of time looking at my feet. They make me smile when they are lovely :)
ReplyDeleteIt's 40 degrees celcius here with the humidex, and there's no AC in the office. I'd cry, but I'm afraid it'll dehydrate me :P
ReplyDeleteFun post Laurie, I especially like the yarn suggestion (big surprise!) and the lolling doggie. :)
ReplyDeletei love this post! your little dog looks so sweet- and i love the fairy teal polish-
