Whoa. Kill the Motor Dude

Sorry, had to throw the Finding Nemo reference in there since I watch that movie all the time and the quotes have now become just as second nature as Brian Regan. This week has been.....interesting. Not really the most busy week, well at least not now since I have nothing due for the rest of the week....well nothing big. But anyway, that's beside the point, either way this week I have been incredibly stressed out. To the point of almost losing my temper with the poor woman who gave me a pedicure who mildly insulted me saying I needed to wax more. But due to this stress I've been pondering the little things that can help us unwind and not take normal everyday stress to new and spectacular levels. It's got to be healthy that we have these outlets right? I mean they say stress is the number one cause of getting sick. So I was thinking about the things that keep me sane. Sadly most of them I personally have to do alone otherwise they do not help at all. Haha being around people does not ease my stress although sometimes I wish it would because finding time alone is hard. But anyway my things are first and always listening to music. I have a playlist for every mood I can possibly have and I have to find the right one to destress me. If I'm depressed I listen to mellow music like James Blunt, if I'm angry or annoyed I listen to really loud music that drowns out my thoughts, and if I'm just low then I listen to love songs. Cheesy to the max I know but love songs give me hope in everything so it helps. My next destress thing is working out. This I have to do alone, I really really really really hate to work out with other people and just going for a walk or something by myself makes everything better for me. And lastly, something that I usually forget but wish I didn't is playing the piano. Even though I'm not as good as I would like to be at playing the songs I love, just moving my hands that way helps me connect to the songs I play. I wish I knew more songs but the ones I really only play are hymns, I think they're beautiful to hear and none of them make you sad. Tonight my sis took her offspring to the park to play after dinner and I think they were gone for an hour and I played her piano the entire time she was gone. It was awesome. Haha then her daughter came home, saw me playing and started crying and came and pushed me off the bench to get me to quit playing her piano. Haha. I don't know why I decided to share what my little things are, maybe just so that I don't forget them again and get so stressed that I can't function.....

On a lighter note...I claim all credit for the naming of Abbey's child!!! Haha probably not but that's what I'll say until the end of my life.

On a lighter "make Heidi laugh hysterically note" but perhaps sobering at the same time....Someone has tried to sue God. A Senator no less. He sued because he said that God had threatened his Omaha constituents and caused widespread fear and "widespread death, destruction and terrorization of millions upon millions of the Earth's inhabitants." (That's a direct quote people) Yup. That just happened. Too bad the judge threw out the lawsuit because since the summons couldn't be delivered to a home address of the defendant (God), the suit wasn't legal. Oh but the good senator has not given up, he thinks that by saying God has no home address that shows the court recognizes His omniscience, and since God knows all, God knows he was sued. Ya good luck with that one buddy. He has 30 days to decide whether he'll appeal. What an awesome man the people of Nebraska have picked for themselves. He served in the Legislature for 38 years, and has criticized Christians on numerous occasions. You stay classy San Diego, you stay classy.
