I came back today to my own blog to look up some of the resources that I've listed before to help myself get back into a better frame of mind. I've been doing okay, working on dieting and exercising and job hunting (still haven't found one!) and then suddenly this weekend, my husband said something that put me right back into the depression zone. First I burned with anger for a couple of days then lapsed into despair. If you're reading this kind of blog, you probably know exactly what I'm talking about. I have spent the last 3 or 4 days trying to work up any kind of enthusiasm for life at all. Really, it's not that bad, but I over-react. I go from 0 to panic mode or despair mode or whatever, in less than a second. I'm fine and then I'm not. If you were here with me, you might not know because I keep it inside but wow, it's been a rough week. Today, I got up and filled out 3 or 4 job applications online and I'm sticking to my diet goals for now but I thought - Hey, I need to look at those inspiring Ted Talks again and read some of those articles that I've linked to from my blog. So here I am, looking at my blog and realizing that I haven't written anything in a long, long time and maybe that's why I'm so quick to get off track right now.
So, why don't you join me? Let's go back and watch the videos that will help us as we try to cope with whatever it is that we're trying to cope with.
Here are some of my favorites.

Now I'm off to watch the video, make a reverse bucket list, practice my power poses and fake smiles and look at some baby animals.

| Okay, he's not a baby animal, but he's comical. This is my dog, unretouched, I promise, after he went out in the mud. :-) His eyes really look like that. |
