Well posts will be happily accepted.. mwaa ladiez..
Hello,
Well for me I have several hobbies that keep my busy, my first being my kids...LOL I also enjoy playing video games and quilting. Video games being my first choice of course....LOL There is nothing like an epic RPG (role playing game), that saps me phyiscally and emotionally. Although, the price of a good game...50 bucks, seems a little steep, but when you get 40-80 hours of entertainment from them it is worth every cent......to me....LOL
I don't know. What are your interests?

ps....you could also volunteer to be girl scout leader......that zaps a ton of time...

Hi Ya,
For me distraction is the key, when I get antsy and I'm not at work I like to take a walk, exercise, do puzzles, play with my dogs, watch a movie, go shoping, talk on the phone, eat, go to a meeting, listen to music, try to laugh,
clean, go on the computer, I am thinking about joining a pool and go water walking, I had back surgery so water stuff is good for the back. Like I said for me it is distraction anything that gets my mind off craving. It is like when a small kid is being bad and touching things they shouldnt you replace it with something that they can touch....when you take something away you have to replace it with something positive........Meetings are a good replacement!!!
All the Best.......Shel
