I'm going to make a suggestion here- follow Maybell's lead and do something wild and crazy - maybe something you never thought about doing. And find something you think you can't do . There are few more empowering feelings than accomplishing something you never thought you could get done. Look at your local Groupon - lots of time they have lots of discounted activities, take up a new sport or maybe even go back to school for something? Just make it something that's a stretch and a little ambitious. This is just me - but finding activities that are mentally taxing or physically on the grueling side are about the only times my mind is completely off the situation, and Ss - you need a little vacation from all of this .
