Happy Days

What makes you happy? Being at home all day on mat leave can take it's toll on you. Hugging and kissing your baby is fun but she also needs to sleep, and calling hubby at work all the time can also be annoying. If you are feeling a bit of the baby blues or even if you just need some tips on how to perk up your day I'll tell you what works for me.
Playing your favorite music will help you feel good and get you off of the couch. Do a silly dance! (just make sure no one is watching) laughing at yourself does wonders. Exercising also helps to get you pumped up. don't have a gym membership? Go on You Tube and type in workout videos.. there are tons! Recently I've been connecting my iphone to the TV and doing workout videos on You Tube. It's great! Make a list of things to do. You know the gunk under the cupboard? the fridge that needs cleaning. Getting little things done add up and will make you feel that you've accomplished something great at the end of the day. Draw little boxes by each item.. it's so rewarding to check them off! Go for a walk. Walk to the mall, or to the park. Just don't drive! We miss out on so much beauty in our cars. When was the last time you blew out a wish flower? The earth is beautiful. These are just a few things that keep me going. Check out some new music and do some dancing for sure. Right now I love the new Beyonce album, it's called 4. Lots of happy songs to keep you dancing. Until next time don't worry be happy! :)
