Yum... now I'm hungry, Christine!!

Definitely a hot bath! It's one of those rare times when I can be alone and clear my head. Naps are great for clarity as well, I think much more clearly when good sleep is involved. Once in a while, when the opportunity arises, I also like to get out of the house and go to my favorite coffee shop to decompress.

But, if it's comfort and not care that I'm looking for, there will be TV and wine and projects involved. That's the best way to get into the flow and take my mind off things.

Thank you so much, Karli-Marie!
LOL! If I start on wine, the projects don't get done, so maybe TV and wine are a better mix

Reading a good book, usually a romance novel also works wonders!

I haven't gardened in ages. I used to really enjoy working in the yard.

LOL! I'm a tea drinker and have been having LOTS of it, but I think it's time for wine!! I'll just make sure it's not in your house so Lucas doesn't get bothered

Thank you, Cindi I wish I could nap! But since I cant, chocolate is probably a close second!

What do I do for comfort?
Maybe playing Plants vs. Zombies because it's something I can do mindlessly and don't have to think about it while playing. But I can only do to that when my husband isn't home because when he is home, the xbox is his. So while he's home, maybe I scrapbook or maybe I just clean. I drive my family nuts when I clean because it's not cleaning, it's deep-cleaning and tedious. Basically anything that I can do mindlessly is my comfort, go-to when I'm in a funk.

I also don't comfort eat so I don't really have a go-to food for me. I do like to comfort drink and that's pepsi, but I've been cutting back my soda consumption these past few months.

I know you are and I can't tell you how much I appreciate that, Wendy!!
I'm SO hopeless with video games. LOL!! The only one I've ever been sort of good at was Centipede (does that age me? LOL!) I start cleaning when I'm stressed, too!! I think it's because sometimes it feels like the only thing I can control!
Good for you cutting down on your soda consumption!!
