Blue Satin

Blue Satin

Every year is the same, everyone’s had a great Christmas, an even better new year (from what you can remember!) but then comes January…..and depression sets in. Everyone’s back at work, settling into that same old routine and we can’t bear to look out of the window because doom and gloom fills the air. The decorations are down, the chocolates are all gone and the word 'diet' springs to mind! So…..How do we resolve this depressive state we’re in?

• Diet – You could try going on a diet, a healthy body is a healthy mind etc etc.

But…you’re not really in the right frame of mind for a diet.

• Spring Clean – Maybe if you clean the house from top to bottom you’ll feel a little  better.

But…you’re too down in the dumps to clean and quite frankly just haven’t got the energy!

• Family Outings – Keep all the family entertained and go out for the day to a theme park or a zoo.

But…you can’t do that because it’s raining and no where’s open.

• Have a night out – Get the girls together and let your hair down on a wild night out.

But…be aware that as soon as those gorgeous new satin stilettos touch down into those murky looking puddlesthey’re wrecked! And      your hair is bound to frizz with the damp in the air.

• Go on a shopping spree – Treat yourself to a new outfit, that always makes us feel better!

But…You can’t really justify spending money you haven’t got on a new frock, plus when will you wear it?

• Tantalise your taste buds – Take the hubby out for a romantic slap up meal, just the two of you.

But…Who’s going to watch the kids? You’ll have to hire a baby sitter which is bumping up the price of this meal, or you could phone a      friend, but then you’ve got another favour to return.

• Get yourself a furry friend – Go to the pet shop and get a new pet, as cute as anything to save you from this boredom.

But…You can’t take it back after a couple of weeks and you know for a fact you’ll definitely be bored with it by then.

• Rent a DVD – Rent yourself a feel good film to enjoy, and while you’re at it, why not go all out and get a pizza, sweets and popcorn too.

But…How long is that going to make you feel good for? And isn’t that kind of defeating the object of the whole ‘diet’ plan.

• Go on a weekend break – Take the family on a nice weekend break, go on an excursion weekend at a family resort or try a caravan park.

But…If you’re going away for the weekend you might as well go away for the week!
That’s it, there’s your answer! Book yourself one of those last minute bargain holidays you’ve heard so many people talking about. They do exist but just take some hard work and commitment from you to find the perfect one. January is a great time to find bargain holidays, it’s out of season, the sales are on and tour operators are trying to shift the packages they have left. Trawl the internet, phone through to call centres and get yourself booked up. Ok, so it’s not going to be as busy and as hot as it would be travelling in the summer months, but you’ve got to put things into perspective, you’re getting a great deal and it’s got to be better than staying here!

But…No no there are no buts here, get yourself logged on, booked up and enjoy your last minute bargain holiday
