Maybe a massage, or go to the movies, or have dinner with a friend. Set aside the stuff that's causing you stress for a few hours and just be the person you picture yourself as when you aren't experiencing all this stress. The things causing you stress will be there, but your brain will be making serotonin, dopamine, oxytocin and endorphins so you are better equipped to deal with the stress.
Focus on you.

RollercoasterLover, thank you.
This weekend I am going (with my husband) to a friend's gathering in the country on Sat. Sunday will be mom time for a while, and that involves dealing with my father's service (mainly). I may not be able to truly grab quality 'me" time this weekend, but I will grab quality friend time, so that's important too. Seeing my friends helps to ground me.
