One good thing is that you feel it coming. You have the advantage to take control and come out on top. Think of what makes you feel like your sinking and do the opposite. Tired of being inside/ go out etc.

Will get dressed and go out. Thank you for the help!

Slap on some eyeliner, lipstick and nice outfit and enjoy your day.

Hi Minnie! You will be surprised in how going out can change your

perspective of the day. I usually head off to the Dollar Shop when not

up to a big box store. Looking at the unique things for a buck can take

your mind off your issues. *at least it does for me.

I smile while going through the store. By the time I'm through, I will have

spent more time then I expected going up and down the aisles.

When I get home, I look through all my little treasures that got me out

for the day and now gives me some pleasure looking through them.

Want something more quiet and free?? The library, a place to just browse

or sit quietly and read. What ever you do, breathe and allow the gift of the

day make your spirits rise. :) xx

Spend as much time with her as you can. Agora 1 mentioned getting out to the dollar shops... so maybe picking out an item for your granddaughter can be a reason to go and a smile on her face can put one on yours. Kids have a way of healing your broken spirits. I know my children do.
