What is your favorite stress-reliever? When you have had a really rough day or a really hard week, what is the one thing that can relax you and help you calm down and feel better?
I am not a big shopper, in fact I don't like to do it unless I have to. But when I am really stressed, and I mean it has been building up for at least a couple of weeks, I want to shop just to spend money. And this is so insane because a part of my stress is paying bills. I am feeling this way now, and it is driving me crazy. I live out in the boonies, so it is not easy for me to go shopping. I have to plan a whole day, and of course I don't want to take the kids so I have to find a babysitter. But I am potty training my little boy, so I can't leave him. Sorry, I had to vent.

A hot bubble bath :)
Yes.. a HOT bubble bath with NO kids and NO man and NOTHING interrupting my quiet time.
Baking! There is nothing more stress relieving to me than to knead dough.
Also, ice cream. Yum.
Getting a really good work out. I love to go to the gym and sweat it out!
Cleaning my house is really good for me as well
I read blogs. :-)
Also, like Shirley Temple said, baking is a big stress relief for me. Make bread and knead that dough like there's no tomorrow!
And I love to go on walks - without having to bring the kids along!

Sex! HAHAH.
Or a good work out.
Or a good book.
Or just zoning out in front of the TV.
Also, my girlfriends and I do a girl's night out once a month and just go to dinner and chat and unwind and vent and have fun. THE BEST!
Shopping alone or going and getting my nails done or a pedicure. Eating some french fries by myself, with a big Coke, LOL. That sounds heavenly.
When I'm totally stressed out, I vent to my husband. I just let it all out. He listens and then I feel better.
It depends, but I love to:
Go out for happy hour with friends;
Take my sweetie out and shoot some pool;
Read;
Watch craptacular TV;
Sleep in!
