Creating a good day for ones self is easier said then done . With the stress of the work day , the common fml surprises, and the simple fact that people can be assholes. I have 10 steps to help you get through some tough times.
1. Turn off your cell phone or press the " do not disturb button " on your home phone ...
- If you want to enjoy yourself  dont let the interent or texts stop that .. you cant help what goes on or what ppl say but who says you have to see it ( that includes computers and anywhere where you can access internet.. i know you might be addicted but you'll survive)


2. Write up a simple / easy going to do list for yourself
-Keeping your mind stimulated is keen, this ensures bordem will not kick in... i usually do chores or tasks naked. nude is when im most comfortable and it is surprisingly entertaining. ( now if you have children or live with other ppl i dont suggest this .. but put in you favourite CD or grab your ipod .. blasting your favourite tunes get your endorphans flowing. Get in your most grunchy comfortable clothes too.. remember this day is about you!


3.  Pamper yourself !!! Have a nice long bath , make a fun cocktail and sit in the sun, whatever makes you feel good do it.
- when you feel good you look good and when you look good you feel good .. nuff said.


4. Try a activity youve never done before , such as hemping , yoga , starting to learn a knew language, it just has to be a knew experience for youself.
- challenging yourself every now and then gives your brain a boost and can be a great tool for a normal stressful day... eg / instead of putting down the knew girl at the coffee shop for screwing up your order for the second time in a row, grab the biggest clump of hair on the ground  you can find stick it in the coffee and offer it to the office bitch :D , it just goes show what a little thinking can accomplish.


5. Make your favourite food of life. whether its greasy or delicate ...enjoy it ! food  has a big part to do with how we are feeling believe it or not.
- Favourite foods commonly referred to as "comfort foods" are actually a remidy for lower stress levels. My Grammas homemade mac and cheese will always warm me up and calm me down.


6. Stay away from the t.v. or video games!!!!
- Distracting you from everything the t.v. in my case makes me lifeless and lazy, instead go for a walk or even better have sex ! physical actions are healthy and lets face it we could all use a good long walk or some spontaneous adult time.


7. Spread the love <3
- whether its your child or a pet or even a best friend set aside some time in your day to reach out and have some quality bonding,  it could be playing outside , making cookies , or just calling and chit chatting. ( this is the one time to plug your phone back in ) as long as they or it is important to you. this doesnt only make you feel good but spreads positivity to others.


8. Plan something exciting !!!
- it could be a tropical trip or a spa day with the girls, planning for happier days or events in general will give you enthusiasum, something i forgot i had. we get so wrapped up in work and our social lives that a good time to most of us is going to the clubs getting slammered and feeling like shit the next day. asking ourselves "what was the point"  or the typical "Im never drinking again days " instead of the normal stuff plan for the once in a while stuff MORE!!!


9. Get as much sleep as possible
- whatever you do .. dont over sleep but go to bed an hour or two earlier then you usually would. it makes all the differencein the world. Sleep is soo important and if you usually dont get in your 8 hours... do this step more


10. Check your calendar
- plan a YOU day atleast once a month , you deserve it!!!!!!!
