Di, at Pensitivity101, is our host for Share Your World each week. Here are her questions for this week.

1. If you are feeling below par and a bit down, how do you lift your spirits?

I tend to be anti-social when I’m feeling down. I usually keep to myself until the below par feeling has passed. I may focus on something else, like watching a movie that I know makes me laugh, reading a book by a witty author, or even by spending time on WordPress.

2. Do you believe that laughter is the best medicine?

I don’t know if it’s the best medicine, but it helps to see the humor in something. I think humor helps take your mind off of whatever it is that ails you, even if just fleetingly.

3. What makes you smile?

Our grandchildren, our dog, my wife, and “Young Frankenstein.”

4. Do you have a ‘comfort’ food.

Pizza, a good Philly cheesesteak sandwich, steamed Maryland blue crabs, oysters on the half shell, steamers (long-neck steamed clams), sushi, baby back ribs, and Ben & Jerry’s Stephen Colbert’s Americone Dream ice cream.
