Greetings ladies and happy new month to you lovely ❤️beauties. Wishing everyone healthy productive and successful month of November ahead. And am happy with the amazing topics of this week brought to us by our dear @saffisara and will be writing ✍️ on the second question .
2️⃣What makes you smile when you are having a bad day?
This very question made me smile when I first read it because bad days are what we encounter too often due to how life is never full of bed of roses 🌹. Life in itself is a struggle so we have to keep this in mind and expect some days in our lives to be filled with smiles while other days can be so blue that we struggle to bring ourselves out of this mood.
The problem here is that we don’t even know which of the days in the week that is going to be a bad day for us because we wake up every morning with lots of expectations hoping our day comes and ends as planned, but suddenly its the other way round. And all the plans of the day is ruined, turning our mood up side down.
The traffic has caused me lots of bad days due to where I reside here in Nigeria my country. Lagos state is one of the biggest city 🌆 with lots of population and traffic one hectic situation many faces week to week. Once am caught up in a traffic especially on the days I have crucial appointments, my bad day starts immediately because I know I will never make it as planned . And the whole day will continue to be moody leaving me feeling so blue.
A walk around the mall is what I have noticed that usually brings a smile 😃 on my face any day am having a bad day. I due visit the mall or the supermarket often for groceries and provisions, but my bad days are just for a walk , especially malls that have background music 🎶, taking time to myself , viewing prices of items, comparing and window shopping 🛍. The mall is a place with beautiful display of items and a place you can visit without even buying anything. So I love ❤️ spending time there because I don’t want to go home feeling bad and down.
I once had an appointment with a client who kept me waiting for two hours at the site of inspection. Not knowing his vehicle 🚗 broke down on his way, I was so furious. And it turned out he rushed out from his office also leaving his phone 📱. I kept him calling severely but he was not picking up. I waited and waited but have to leave. And just across the road, I saw a supermarket and decided to walk in there and spend the afternoon taking a look at the prices of their items. Although I ended up buying things as my mood elevates with some background music 🎶. Haha 😆.
Bad day can start in the morning, afternoon or evening as the day is about to end. A sudden change in plans or circumstances can bring some bad mood 😒 but that is why life is not a bed 🛌 of roses 🌹. We should always be ready to tackle that mood swings with what ever we know can bring us back to our normal self. It could be music 🎶, watching movies 🎥 or going shopping 🛍. Anything we love ❤️ that can keep that smile 😊 on our faces.
Thank you ladies for reading 🥰❤️.

"retail therapy" as I call it, can be a good thing. I think just going to the mall like you do, and then knowing you might buy something, or you might not, does the trick. My husband and I did some retail therapy when his mom was dying some years ago. We were into model trains at the time and went looking for new cars to add to the model of train we had. We enjoyed the trains a lot and it helped us to forget for just a little while what was going on.
Thank you for sharing and have a lovely day!
A good retail therapy indeed. This method has really helped me through my bad mood days because you got to take your mind of everything at that point in time.
And just like you said you and your husband enjoyed that little moment while looking for the new cars. Its a magic many mighty not see, but works so perfectly.
Thank you sis for your time and awesome support comments. Wishing you a healthy productive and successful month of November 😇

😁 LMAO... I totally do that mistake
I agree with you on all you mention here, we never know what each day brings us, or how it will turn out.
Life isn't all roses but I Wouldn't want that as if all was perfect all the time... We Wouldn't know.
Life is a roller Coaster, bad days can be a pain for sure (like mine can be a chain reaction through the day to the point you just can't help laughing) 😁 cause it is almost
Ridiculous. Ofcourse why not that to. BUT.. Then there are things that can help the mood.
And for me it is walks in nature, photography.
But I also get that you love the mall, that is a good place to go and happy that you found your happy place 😊
Love the pictures.. And it made me 😋 Drooling to.. Lol
Thank you for sharing and have a wonderful weekend. Cheers 🌷
Life a roller Coaster indeed. And I love how you mentioned walk in nature, photography to help the mood So inspiring too.
Yes. Am also happy 😃 I found a place for my mood elevation on bad days.
Thank you for your wonderful kind comments and support. Have an amazing weekend too 🥰❤️💕
I tend to avoid malls and shopping not just because I want to avoid over spending but too often reminded how prices are going up and up is frustrating me. It's hard to stick to a financial plan with a family to feed. I have to remind myself that it is the exercise as my goal more than shopping.
You are truly right sis. The price issue is so scary 😟. But most times, caught up on the road from work makes it easier for me. And help me too on price check to know where to really shop what and others.
Exercise is what I do on weekends which is so amazing to our mental health.
Thank you so much for your kind words and support. Cheers 🥂 to the new month. 🥰❤️
It's true life is not always all Rosey. It's nice you found your happiness at the mall.
For me dancing to my favorite songs is enough to make my bad day disappear
Lovely one sis. I can play some music 🎶 if am home, but working on the field just takes me to the mall.
Thanks for coming around. Love 💕
