When I'm in a bad mood, I go off by myself (no sense lashing out at someone) and, after allowing myself one full minute to wallow in self-pity, count my blessings.

Dwelling on it certainly makes the day dreary. However, there is the odd time that recognizing I'm in a bad mood lets me know that I need some 'special' time. So I treat myself the way I might treat my wife when she is in a bad mood: some music, some reading, a glass of wine, maybe even a piece of chocolate... and the make-over is complete :)Photodictionhttp://photodiction.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2519113151629385676.post-15505888805902545722010-12-01T09:55:06.842-08:002010-12-01T09:55:06.842-08:00Or merely looking around you.
