It does
not take a lot of money to lift me from my sadness. All I need is
some time. Having some friends around would be helpful. Things I do
to relax and have fun are simple things.
One of
the things I especially love to do is go to the library. Whether it
is a project, interest or problem the library has resources. I always
love to browse the “New Section” books. I enjoy books and
sometimes I read a lot.
Another
way to relax me is going shopping. I have loved shopping since I was
a teen! It is one of my favorite pastimes. I bargain hunt and look
for deals. I like going to discount stores, the Goodwill and thrift
stores. I also go to high end stores BUT I am always looking for a
good sale there! Shopping lifts my spirits when I am blue. I rarely
spend a lot of money for goods.
One of
my favorite places to go is downtown during the day. There is a nice
park with a big fountain. Sometimes I like going to the bars but I do
not usually have an alcoholic beverage. My beverage of choice is
orange juice. There are cute shops and cafes to visit. I love the
Peanut Shop. I always get popcorn from there. Occasionally I feed the
squirrels in the park bits of popcorn. There is usually something
going on downtown!
Lastly
I love to go out to eat! Often I am in the mood for Thai food. I also
like Chinese buffets. I prefer to go during the day to keep costs
down. I dine out with a friend at least once a week.
These
are things I do to make me feel better. It is kind of like my own
therapy in a sense. They help chase away the blues and get me away
from my depression.
