This works for me ~everytime~

[color:"red"] animal planet's funniest animals [/color]

No matter how stubborn my bad mood might be ... I find I cannot watch this show without letting go of my bad mood ...

What works for you?

Getting in the middle of the floor playing/wresting with my animals ~ two poodles (REAL pets, Mel <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/tongue.gif" alt="" />) ~ will work for me.

hummm....interesting topic. I'm trying to think of other things that lift my spirits.

Watching the movie "What's Up Doc?" Always makes me laugh!

I also happen to like slapstick comedy, so The Three Stooges, Abbott and Costello or anything along those lines works for me. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Lately, working out for me has worked. Nothing like slamming together some dumbbells for a while wishing they were someone else <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

Or playing with my two girls, age 5 and 2.

Dancing with my daughters (2 & 1)

Salsa or ballroom dancing (a rare treat)

a clean sink

exercize (helps when my blues are anger based or if I'm feeling less than sexy)

We went on vacation for 3 weeks - no TV.

What I missed was watching Jay Leno at night - laughing myself silly before falling asleep.

I get my "news" though Jay Leno's viewpoint!

What a great thread idea, Pep!

For me it's cleaning or baking bread.

Who can be blue with a clean house that smells like fresh homemade bread?

Kneading the dough gets out any frustration too!

I work out or write. Writing really helps and working out makes me feel better.

For some reason, and I wouldn't recommend this or advocate for it but it seems cigarettes help. I hate to say it but they do.

OK, I'm about to give out my secret weapon to battling the blues..... PLEASE proceed with caution as this is guaranteed to plant a smile on your face, so don't use my suggestion if you need to show some other type of emotion. Like if you are going to a funeral or something like that...

Anywho, my secret weapon is BUBBLEGUM Ice Cream... It's totally impossible to be sad or frown or be mad or anything negative while eating bubble gum ice cream........
