Day off how would you cheer yourself up

Not feeling 100%, which is making me feel a bit grumpy, work crazy busy at the moment so I’m glad to have the day off but annoyed I’m feeling a bit crappy and am going to waste it … how would you cheer yourself up?!

I've also got a day off. Imagine yourself sitting in work.....

I would try to find a friend to go for a walk with, failing that take myself to the most lovely naturey spot and go for a stroll with a flask of coffee. Possibly finish with lunch out and a nap in the afternoon, ideally on my sofa in the sunny spot.

I typically take myself out for a day trip to do something the kids wouldn't enjoy

Are you a cat?

I'd go for a nice walk and call at the library and a nearby lovely charity shop.

Then make myself a nice lunch and watch a film.

Day off today too! Also had a stressful week at work.

I’m getting my hair cut and doing my nails (myself). If I had time today I would do some yoga, stretch into my body, as I feel a bit pent up from sitting at my desk feeling stressed all week.

I have a lunch date with a new friend, and another friend coming over for the evening… if you wish you had friends to meet today maybe make a small step to finding some - research an app or group to try?

First of all I’m just having a coffee in a quiet cafe and clearing my mind of the junk in it! There’s a lot of thoughts stacking up. I might dump it all on paper in a minute.

Try to get outside somewhere pretty - blue sky, spring sunshine and trees beginning to blossom where I am. Some deep breaths down to the stomach in the cool air. Good for the soul.

@Whatwasthepoint I could definitely have been a cat in another life. Love a sunny nap!
