Mud pies for sure! I made some when I did the "permission to have fun" thing...and I'm not going to throw them away.

Yes also to the classical music, although if I'm in a downer mood I'll stick to the waltzes.

Ever try listening to Polka music? No, I'm not kidding. It's vibrant and bouncy and fun. I can listen to it for about 30-45 minutes...probably because it reminds me of being TDY in the DC area. We were invited to a polka club! I had never heard of one...every Friday night, though, we went and polkaed/danced for hours.
Oh my what fun...and I had a bum like ya wouldn't believe..hmmm come to think of it, it was the best physical shape I've ever been in

Make Bread.
This is one of my best ones. No bread machine, nothing modern. Good old fashioned kneading, kneading, kneading...if I was listening to music that dough got one helluva workout...and a lot of tension got worked out of me.
It was never with the intent to eat it; if it was edible after baking, fine. If it was a rock, fine.

I like the idea of taking action/throwing ourselves into an activity as opposed to "try to think positive" crap. What?! I'm supposed to sit on my arse and ponder? I'm too easily distracted when I ...ooh, look at the pretty butterfly
yo! home run...when did the game start?
Yep, easily distracted
