You need to keep busy doing things that you both enjoy. Think twice before you say something you might regret later. Take care of any pressing medical problems that you or one of your parents may be suffering from. Outdoor sports events should entice you.

The Claim: To Heal a Cut, Keep It Dry and Leave It Alone
THE FACTS - Most people are taught by their parents how to treat a small wound: stop the bleeding, clean it up, let it get some air, and - most important - never pick the scab.
But dermatologists believe that this advice, often passed down through generations, is outdated.
In most cases, once a cut or scrape is clean and the bleeding has stopped, doctors advise just the opposite: soaking and slowly removing the scab, then keeping the area moist with antibacterial ointment or bacitracin.
Research has shown that a moist environment will speed up healing and reduce scarring.
"Any cut that goes through the entire thickness of the skin is going to produce a scar, but there are things you can do to make it look better," said Dr. Olivia Hutchinson, a plastic surgeon in Manhattan.
Never leave a small wound exposed or allow it to breathe.
A Band-Aid can ward off infection and prevent a scab from forming.
It might also protect the area from sunlight, which stimulates the production of pigment and causes discoloration.
Most stores now carry new "liquid" bandages, gel-like versions of traditional Band-Aids that discourage scabbing.
The liquid forms a transparent film that seals in moisture. As the skin replaces itself, the gel simply sloughs off - leaving any hair behind.
THE BOTTOM LINE - Keeping a wound moist and covered promotes healing and minimizes scarring.
