Trying to detach from the madness!

[blindsided1]

Go for a drive. Take baby to the coast, park, zoo, whatever. Go to the mall and window shop. Go eat split pea soup...that's their claim to fame up there, right LOL. Spring Clean. Get a baby book or photo album in order. Whenever I see there is something to do...I put it on a list I keep. Then when I don't have something to preoccupy me, I pull out the list and do at least one thing. I also make lists of places I'd like to go. I understand about trying not to spend money. But, there's lots of things to do. Go to the library or a kids museum. Be creative. You need to keep yourself busy. And, don't give into the temptation to dwell.
