I realize that I post rarely in this area. But I wanted to get as much input as possibile from people in this community. Anyway, how do you all deal with stress? Sometimes, I find it difficult to handle my stress, so right now I am looking for new means for handling it.
Right now, my biggest two stress relievers are using the computer, and driving my truck. But sometimes, these relievers fail me.
That is a good one Zudy. I have done something similar to that with my 2 youngest cousins. Only I was the chair on the couch that they love to sit on. When that happens, I love to surprise tickle them. One of them has not learned the best tickle places yet (much to my luck lol). Them two boys are the best kids I know. They even love my truck.
Once I made the huge mistake of letting them both sit in my truck while I was working on the turn signals. I turned on the radio for them too. The oldest, quickly learned how to crank up the music all the way. He then got behind the steering wheel and started to act like he was driving lol. No need to worry about them cranking my old truck because (1) it is a manual transmission and has to have to clutch depressed 40ft down lol to start. and (2) the ignition lock is worn so you have to have the right touch to get it to turn (I swear it is worse than the child-proof pill bottles). and finally (3) the emergency brake was on (the emergency brake on this truck is one that will stop the truck dead in its tracks at 30mph.)
My uncle (the boys dad) still remarks how much fun the kids had in my truck. The boys love to ride in it of course, and they call her (the truck) by her name lol. I named her Eleanor from the movie Gone in 60 Seconds. The name fits because she was totaled after being stolen, was an extremely fast car, and it was repaired by a new loving owner. Granted, my truck is no Mustang with NOS that will do 160mph, it however is very fast and powerful.
Oh well enough ranting and raving over my red beauty lol.
