Things I do to cheer myself up when I'm feeling down

Over the years I have had to find ways to cheer myself up if I'm ever feeling low. As I think we all have had to do. Here is a list of some of my favorite things to do.


♬ I will usually listen to music. Listening to the right songs can put you in such a better mood and even bring back a whole bunch of memories. I love music and always have it on.

♣♤ Another thing I like to do that will always cheer me up is playing games. I love to play all kinds of games. Card games, board games, anything really.

☏ If I'm ever down I can always call my mom and talk to her she always knows what to say to put me in a good mood and make me feel better. Or I can text my dad and talk to him. I also have several cousins and friends that I can call or text to help brighten up my day. I am so grateful to have them in my life and that I have such a good relationship with all of them.

✄🎨 I love to do crafts and being able to do a craft and use your creativity and imagination is so soothing and can make you feel so at ease. Plus it's always fun to do a craft and see the end product when you are finished.

🚗 Going for a drive can always put my mind at ease as well. Especially if it's in the mountains or on a back road. Just to be able to take in the scenery and have time to myself or with my hubby. And to be able to be with my thoughts is a great way to think and clear my head.

🌺⚘ When I was growing up I always loved to help my Grandma weed her flower beds. And now that I have my own garden I am remembered of how much I love to be out in nature. It's such great therapy. It just makes me so happy!

📙 I love to read and reading a good book can always cheer me up. I love that when you read you can feel like you go to another place. I also love how your mind can create such wonderful images based on what you are reading.

✎ Writing or blogging is also therapeutic for me. I like to journal about things that are going on and it's nice as well that I can go back and look at some of those old memories.

👫 Spending time with my hubby always makes me happy as well. I love the times we get to spend to spend together. It's fun to have time with him and make those lasting memories as a couple.


I'd love to hear what things you guys do to cheer yourself up?

30 day 📷 challenge....Week 1

I decided it might be fun to do a 30 day photography challenge. So what I'm going to do is take a picture every day for the month of July and post them. I'm going to do them as a week review though so I will just have four posts for this month. It should be fun!! Saturday July 1st: ▲Selfie- I might just be the selfie queen! This day I decided to try something new with my hair, so I did a side bun. I think for my first attempt at it, it turned out pretty good. Sunday July 2nd: ▷Watermelon- I love watermelon, I was a little surprised though to be given watermelon at the end of our Chinese meal the other day. I must admit it was very refreshing! Monday July 3rd: ◊The sun- I just thought this was a pretty picture! Tuesday July 4th 🎆: ◈Action photo- This is a picture from the 4th of the kids running to catch the parachutes. It was such a great day!! Wednesday July 5th: ◅Where I sleep- I love my bed and bedding set. The mattress is so comfy a...

Thought for the day

“Just when the caterpillar thought the world was ending, he turned into a butterfly.” (Proverb) I came across this quote on Pinterest and suddenly loved it. I think it's so great and has such a good meaning behind it. I feel like it fits me well with where I'm at right now. I have grown so much over this past year. With starting a healthier lifestyle and taking more time to care for myself I have gained a confidence and happiness with myself that I haven't had in such a long time. I have found that if I'm not truly happy with myself I can't make the people around me happy. I have also found that I need to love myself the way I am and to be proud of myself for all of my accomplishments. #learningtolovemyselfagain  #loveyourcurves
