How to achieve a calm state four days before the most important Election Day in my long lifetime ?
- Breathe.
- Get some nutritious sleep.
- Eat some nutritious food.
- Listen to people you love.
- Restrict your “doomscrolling” through the latest news.
- Laugh.
- Express yourself.
- Get some exercise.
- Play music.
- Play.
- Keep your blood pressure low.
- Be safe.
- Share your views, including fun fotos.
Also, realize that it’s hard for the current administration to make a comeback.
Let’s achieve a calm state together as we watch “Porch restaurant caters to chipmunk.”
Achieve a calm state as you take in my gratitude to all who helped me create this achieve-a-calm-state post, including my wonderful, dog-loving Primary Care doctor Laura Kate Snydman at Tufts Medical Center, Georgia food writer Angela Hansberger, Thelonius Munk, the Daily Bitch Calendar, and YOU.
I am trying, Ann.
We are all trying together, my friend.
I walk, I find things left behind, I sing and dance badly with my class – mask on, I visit people outside, I look at rescue baby kitties with olive, I make bread, I write, I connect things, I keep hope in my pocket
You help me and many others achieve a calm state, beth.
The deer and cat show us how friendship can be. Wish politicians behaved like this.
Thank you for your friendship!
Hi Ann – I try to achieve and keep a calm state – just really wishing this year would end – it has been a year of sadness. They say bad things always come in 3s, we have had 2 so far, just holding my breath and praying the third will not come to fruition. I think if I just watch animal videos and keep away from the news – things will be okay. I love the Chipmunk video, that is fabulous!!!
Thank you for this fabulous comment, my lovely friend! I’m with you in waiting for this year to end. ❤
That is quite a task
Quite!
I enjoyed the chipmunk video, Ann! I’m looking at the puppy pictures and I would like to ask you where you found them. I would like to get a small puppy for my mother. I called the MSPCA and they only have Pitbulls. Have a nice day, everyone
Pit bulls can be wonderfully sweet and loving companions…they get a bad rap. 😊
The puppy photos were all in my Primary Care doctor’s office. She loves dogs. I hope you find a puppy for your mother and thanks for another nice comment.
Thank you, Ann
Helping others can help us achieve a calm state, something I thought about watching that chipmunk eat its tiny meals.
Reading your words helps me achieve a calm state, Chris, so I’m off to read your blog now.
It’s hard to make a comeback and achieve a calm state when Harley isn’t there.
Harley is there in today’s post, Maria, and thanks for coming back!
Doing my best to achieve calm, Ann, but it ain’t easy! My nerves are rubbed raw. Throwing myself into the arms of Mother Nature this weekend in hopes of finding succor.
We’re both doing our best, Lori, and I hope things get calmer soon. ❤
Restricting “doom scrolling” absolutely MUST be top of my list or I will implode. I am glad we are in this together. Somehow that really helps me, Ann.
It helps me too, my friend! Let’s breathe together and achieve a calm state.
