Bad Day? 10 Things To Take Your Mind Off It (PHOTOS)
|

We all have those days. The day is absolutely awful. Today sucks. Nothing is going your way. Maybe something objectionably catastrophic has happened, or your brand-new shoes are ruined, thanks to a very deceptive weather forecast.

The severity and validity of your feeling the blues is not really what counts. What counts is your ability to keep your emotions in check, to cheer yourself up and to know that tomorrow is another day.

The good news: We've all got something that lifts our spirits. Ironically, it's when we need our bad-day-remedies most that we forget what they are.

So consider this list your starting point for cheering up. Come back whenever you need to take your mind off of things.
