I find little things help. Buying myself a little treat as a mental pick me up can do wonders for a little while.

My birthday is in July, so my Zodiac sign is Cancer. I have always been fascinated by crabs and other crustaceans.

I bought an aquarium setup and put it together to house a small colony of red-clawed crabs - I bought six of them at Petsmart the other day, and I am having a great time watching them. They are very comical creatures, they are always darting around or scurrying to hide when the big scary human approaches their world under glass.

Silly, but fun. Little crabs the size of a US quarter dollar coin, which cost $2.39 each, are lightening my mood considerably.
