    I needed some. So I watched the movie Gigi. What can I say? I love musicals. Happy memories of watching it with my mom. Plus Louis Jourdan was drop dead gorgeous. 😍

      Go out for coffee or a meal
      Take a bike ride (in better weather)
      Go to Manhattan and get lost in the crowd
      Play the piano
      Etc.

        Making something. At the moment it's a large needlepoint tapestry in the millefleurs style of the renaissance. Also practicing crewel stitches and a cross stitch pattern. This is what I do when I need to anchor and get back to my basic joie de vivre. Once that is accomplished I can go to the piano and practice. However, these days it works best if I practice before I even turn on the computer. Therefor, many days start with coffee and breakfast, some needlepoint, followed by piano. Then, and only then, will I turn on the laptop and selectively check a few 'safe'-ish sites.

        The needlepoint (which is now 50% done, the following picture was taken about 3 weeks ago. The red arrow shows where I was then.):
