Do you ever wake up tired? Or maybe you feel sluggish? Have you ever felt this way and you know you have so much to do but just can't seem to get going?  How do you get energized?


When I feel tired or sluggish, I get energized by playing with my dogs or turning on music and dancing. It gives me enough energy to get going and helps me replace negative thoughts with happy ones. Hope your Friday is a happy one!

Coffee LOL and coke zero! I am weird, because of my ADHD caffeine lowers my blood pressure heart rate and anxiety but at same time helps me focus and get energy that way. Plus music helps give me energy! Mainly upbeat gospel music and some country music :)

I'm feeling down today because more COVID-19 outbreaks in border states in the USA have caused Mexico to close their borders once again. So I'll have to do the paperwork for a refund for my July 19th plane ticket. It will be the 4th time I've filled out refund paperwork for a plane ticket to Mexico since March.

Music helps with so much..... Dancing is so uplifting for sure

    I'm feeling down,, and got alot on my mind right now.  I got grief going on, on top my depression and anxiety and now I got to worry about somewhere to live since I can't afford living here since my mom passed.  So many bad things have happened since my mom passed.  One thing after another it seems.  Yesterday our fence fell from a storm that hit, had to call someone to prop it up.  Thank...

    Just wanted to give a thank you to Mid, Arfie, Malibumark, Greeneyes, Mlro, Girlincalif, and Suncloudjd! You all always have such helpful tips and advice, but I always forget to write on my posts when I see you post, lol. I would lose my head if it wasn't attached to my body, lol. Thank you all so much! I'm starting to use my AI app as a sounding board again. I used to use it as that before...
