Divorce after Twenty years together Community Group
I want to start something for those of us that were married for a long long time. I think that we face a little different issues than those who were dating for a few years or even married for shorter period of time. Being married for so long we have older children some have grandkids dealing with teenagers and their reaction to the divorice empty nesters dating after 40...
In Chapel today we saw a short video on a 30-day challenge. Basically, you can work on some goal, give something up, etc. for 30 days. I have decided I will work out everyday (in some form or fashion) for 30-days. I think the idea is that it gives you a start on forming a habit. In the beginning of my divorce process I should have made NC a 30-day challenge. That would have helped. Anyway, I thought I would put it out there for anyone who would like to join me. Then we can check back in with each other on October 20th. Is there anyone who would like to join me? You make up your own challenge. (One of my friends is just writing a note to a friend everyday for 30 days.)

I call this small bites, that is how I get a lot done. I painted the whole house that way one year.. one wall at a time when I had time. Or I worked up to running 5 miles a day on a eliptical.. one week at at time, one mile a week, then 2, etc. This is what works for me!
Well at least you get some EXERCISE doing the "small bites" thing. I do the same thing...get two of whatever and lie on the couch with my book in my lap. Eat the cookies as I read. Next thing I know, those cookies are calling me from the kitchen....repeat.
As a food rep, I have 100's of accounts.. all the major and some not so small companies. Cheezit is one, and we market tested the new cheese flavors. One of the perks, free products! Why I need to run on an eliptical and burn up 500 calories a day.. and eating with a Nook reader.. easy, only one cheesy finger needed to turn a page!
I've always thought about going into advertisement and could do a great commercial for them because I'm already working through my 2nd box with the reasoning that they're a good source of fiber. I put them in the freezer earlier tonight thinking that "out of sight is out of mind" instead of throwing them out, but did you know that cheez-its really don't freeze...they only get a little cold and the flavor is still addictive. At the rate I'm going, the box should be empty soon...curse you Sunshine Company!!!
And on another note, did you know that Southern Living has a Fried Pimento Cheese Sandwich recipe and they are rolled in Cheez-its then deep fried? There is a video on their website.
And Kathi, I'm not getting much done lately no less reading!!
Last summer, we discovered the latest plot to keep fattening up our citizens -- Deep Fried Dill Pickles! Oh boy! How to take a perfecty innocent, low calorie snack and LOAD IT UP WITH DEADLY SATURATED FAT! We broke down and had one and I have to admit, it was pretty tasty, but since I am already fighting the post-menopausal metabolism, I have sworn NEVER AGAIN! Lately all it takes is walking down the ice cream aisle in the grocery store to feel more padding sliding its way onto my butt!
