1. When was the last time you tried something new?:On our trip to Scotland I encouraged and worked with my grands to draw and write about our trip daily in an art journal. I loved doing mine and the more I did the more they were encouraged.
2. Who in your family do you compare yourself to?: I am becoming more and more like my mother, even in my mannerisms.
3. What lesson in life did you learn the hard way?:I would have to say my eating habits. I unfortunately used food for comfort and emotional upheaval. Therefore, I have been heavy almost all of my adult life. Lifelong fat is hard to lose. But slowly it is coming off.
4. What can you do today that you weren't able to do before?:The older I get, just like many if my heavy aunts I just don’t find joy in eating much and it is much easier to lose weight.
I love the journal idea on a trip. What a great way to remember it all. We do seem to mirror our moms after a while. I see it in my kids. Thanks for taking part.
ReplyDeleteI certainly understand that emotional connection to food. I have problems with the same thing. What a wonderful way to remember a trip! I have to remember that!
