Organizing to chill is an interesting idea. Creating order can be very soothing.

Great ideas. I dont think #9 would give me a pick me up as I just recently lost my Dad. Maybe next year. Happy TT.

I love to jam in my car too...and swing. I have a huge tree with a swing in my front yard where my Mom's ashes(2006) are scattered...it is peaceful.

Love your list! Especially the swinging. I love swings in the park or a nice quiet porch swing. There's something about the motion that's very soothing.


Come by and see my trip to the lake.

Something about getting outside is always calming. I love to go to the zoo, but I have a membership so it is free for me. I could see it being less relaxing if you had to pay an arm and a leg to go everytime!

Also, jamming in the car? A great stress reliever! (Albeit an expensive one with gas prices these days!)

Happy TT!
