It had been a while since I had gone to my neighbors and I was feeling a little stressed from being inside for most of the week so I went to the neighbor’s house to drop of a gift. See at my part time job they occasionally give away food that’s going to expire soon so that we don’t have to just throw it out. Really it’s fantastic because it gives us an opportunity to try things out and it gives others a little taste of the workplace. So today we had an offer to take home some caramel apples. They were going to expire in the next day and since I sadly don’t like the texture of apples I took a chance and went next door. 

Once I got inside the house we sat and chatted about how things had been and what was going on in our lives. I heard about the kids and I got to see one of them that was sick. Once we got done with chatting we went into the kitchen and I presented my caramel apples. Luckily they were welcomed and eaten very quickly. After all, its 1)sugar and 2) delicious. 

For the rest of the night I had some time to relax. I spent time with the neighbors until my friend came over and we then sat down and watched a few movies to pass the time. Hess going into the military so his time in this area may be limited. Not only that but he will have to go to Texas for basic training. So we had decided to spend time together since I didn’t know when I would see him again. 

Really everything yesterday was nice and chill. I had a good day and I really enjoyed myself despite having to go to work for a meeting and then open. Nothing went wrong, I wasn’t stressed and really getting away from everything at home helps to refresh the mind. 

Good company, good food, and a good day at work had made my mind do a little reset. 

What do you do to let the stress go?
