I’ve had one of those days myself. The new puppy crying. The baby needing fed and a diaper change. The other dog ripping apart a pillow on the couch. My wife called from work and said that her next check is going to less than we budgeted for. Sigh.
Put the puppy in the kennel. Spank the other dog. Feed and change the baby, then put him in the playpen. Put dinner in the crock pot. Do a load of dishes. It’s been stressful. I’m not complaining about that though. Being a stay at home parent is tough. It’s probably one of the hardest jobs there is, but at times it is stressful just like every other job on the planet that I know of.
So what do you do with stress wherever you are? I find that putting on music helps. For me, headphones and my ipod plus streaming pandora (www.pandora.com) is one of the best ways to stay productive and relaxed under stress. What works for you?

I am assuming you mean Pandora?
One way to partially relinquish stress is to let it out, and I think this blog of yours is one way. We have to express our self, to let out our inner thoughts. This way we release a bit of burden out of our system.
