Down

I can't seem to perk up. I've been a little down for a couple weeks. Not depressed so much as just a little below average. I'm not sure what it is I should do about this. Yesterday I put up my Christmas tree hoping that would help, but it didn't really.

Ten things I will do this week to attempt cheering up:
1) Call ANWM about America's Next Top Model night.
2) Call Amy about making soup with me.
3) Plan a margarita night.
4) Walk to work everyday. (exercise is supposed to improve your mood...)
5) Finish the book I'm reading and start another. (The current one is about the Holocaust. That can't be helping my mood.)
6) Keep my Christmas tree lights on whenever I'm in my apartment. Hum Christmas tunes.
7) Plan for a cookie baking party with my niece, the aspiring chef.
8) Decide to be happy everyday.
9) Catch up at work.
10) Express to my two best friends exactly how unhappy I've felt about their recent unavailability. (One has a new boyfriend, the other just started grad school.)

After all, you can't complain about something unless you are willing to do something about it.
