I read a blog today over at the fabulous marriagemotherhoodandmadness about sanity-saving activities.  We definitely have some in common (Keeping Up With the Kardashians!).  Here is my list of things that keep me sane throughout the day/week (and here is marriagemotherhoodandmadness‘ list!)

1. Exercising.  If I have time to go to the gym, that’s the ultimate form of stress relief for me.  I take an hour to myself to just watch tv or listen to music while I work out.  I always leave feeling refreshed.

2. Watching trashy tv.  My favorite is “Keeping Up With the Kardashians.”  I love them.  I often wonder if they do certain things just because the cameras are there, but I love them nonetheless.  My two favs are Khloe, who in my opinion doesn’t change at all for the cameras, and Bruce, who seems like such a genuine family man.  Their lives are just so…easy…that I love to watch.

3. Social media.  Chatting with friends, reading other mom blogs or writing on my own blog helps me to feel connected.  Being a SAHM is rather isolating and it’s nice to stay connected even if it is through the internet.

Those are my top three!  I’m pretty sure that without them, I might go crazy.  Thanks for inspiring me, Mia!
