How do you soothe yourself when you are upset?
If I am not hurting, I clean house or do a task
on my to do list that I have been putting off for a while. Cleaning the house always makes me feel
better. It gives me a sense of control
that being upset takes away from me. I
also like to garden. This puts me
outside and in the dirt, all things to soothe me. Painting can also help. I hate to admit it, but sometimes I also turn
to food. Many times, I would love to
turn to alcohol, but I avoid that because it is not a habit I want to get into.
Besides, I am taking too much medicine
to add more then an occasional drink every now and then.
I have to say that this topic is perfect for today. I am so angry at everything. I didn't get any good sleep last night. This weekend, I wanted to get a good three
thousand words written. I only ended up
with 800 because I kept getting interrupted and my energy tanked. A professional book cover artist told my
husband all the things wrong with my cover.
Her and an author said I needed to spend a good $6,000 on publishing a
book instead of doing most of the work myself for about $100. How am I to cover that amount? I am frustrated. I am upset.
So what am I going to do? Maybe I
will go take Leo for a walk in the rain so the cold water will cool me off.
