I am a bit down in the dumps at present, and has anyone got any quick "pick me ups" that I could do?
I am super excitied that Lucy is back to preschool tomorrow to give me a little break, but apart from walking, is there anything else that maybe I could try? Sorry for the rant!  ------------- http://lilypie.com">  http://lilypie.com">

Sorry your feeling down hun.
I would have said exercise, get those endorphins racing.... I find a good 30 mins sweating picks me up. So not really helpful considering you want something other than exercising. Hope you feel better soon. -------------

Well, this is the opposite to exercise, but baking something glorious cheers me up. Or making something fancy for tea that I haven't tried before. -------------

Maybe go for a huge walk then rent a funny movie and have a good laugh with some yummy treats. And maybe a glass of wine or two? ------------- http://lilypie.com">

I love having foot baths and pedicures you could do your own or get one done at the mall or invite a few friends over and do each others.
Having a long bath Getting your hair cut or coloured Buying a new lipstick or nail polish or body spray making food -------------

Play some music you really like...
Do some cleaning (odd, I know - you'll feel dreadful doing it, but when it's done, it's a great feeling) -------------
