Feeling Blah? - Romance Writers Weekly - #lovechatwrite

Sometimes it's hard to tell whether Aspen is depressed or sleepy, LOL!

​I’m generally an optimistic person, and am lucky that I don’t feel depressed or unhappy very often. But this week on the Romance Writers Weekly Blog Hop, we’re sharing what we do to cheer up when we’re feeling down.

When I’m feeling stressed and anxious, a long walk can really help me. The fresh air and exertion go a long way to calm me and help me keep things in perspective.
​
My grandchildren are a sure-fire way to make me smile, too. The two toddlers are just so dang cute it’s hard not to feel happy when they are around.

Anything that distracts me is helpful, too. That could mean reading or listening to a book, watching a familiar favourite sitcom, or visiting friends or family—whatever takes my mind off my worries makes it easier to handle.

 What about you? What do you do to cheer yourself up? Comment below, then hop over to Jill Haymaker for her take on this topic.
