1) (I am not kidding) go to the grocery store and put away carts. This predates your cart rampage! I learned it from a 12-step sponsor over 10 years ago...If you are feeling sorry for yourself, she would say, go do something nice for someone and make sure they don't know it was you. Her personal way was putting away carts in the racks. :) Sometimes I used to see her out at Skaggs Alpha Beta in the parking lot. :)
I sleep. I will go to bed really early and then sleep late, and then when I get up I either eat pancakes of waffles. Anything with syrup that goes well with bacon.
I'm with pcit and rach...PLUS chocolate. I usually cry a bit, at something unrelated and unreasonable. Is this an academic enquiry, or would a hug be welcome? ((m)) just in case
I was in a horrible funk last week caused by anxiety and procrastination. I first went to the beach and went in the water for a long time. Then I stopped and got some fried chicken and by the time I was done eating it I felt a lot better. Then I finished all the things I was procrastinating doing and felt a lot lot better.
I meant to tell you Mindy, I eat chocolate, ice cream, and go driving, just mindless driving, sometimes screaming at the top of my lungs, sometimes praying. And then sometimes I just crawl into a hole. I am glad to see you are better, Take care of yourself.

I'm a little late to the party. I've been away from blogland a lot. But It all depends on I dont' know what - when I'm in a funk, I sometimes eat like a horse. Sometimes I drink extra Tequila. I love Tequila any time but when I'm in a funk it's extra nice. I tend to get cranky. I try to get alone if I can or call a good friend. And If I can't do either one of those unfortunately, I tend to shut down and get snappy with the ones closest to me. But of course there are those great times that I am being super Christian and I go get some solitude and just Be with the I Am until I'm no longer in a funkathon. But usually I eat and drink myself out of a funk. :o)
Ice cream. I do ice cream.
ReplyDeleteI chain read murder mysteries and drink a little more red wine than is strictly good for me.

ReplyDeleteSorry, can't spell. What I meant to say was PCIT and I could hang out and be funk-y together.
ReplyDeleteI find a really bad chick lit book and hibernate with a glass of red wine and TLC's What Not To Wear.
ReplyDeleteIf the little angel is sitting on my shoulder, I'll go work out.
ReplyDeleteIf the little devil is sitting on my shoulder: chocolate. And mashed potatoes with lots of butter. But not together.
Oh, and as a friend of mine remarked today, watching Will & Grace always helps.
