The rules are simple: I do each thing on my list once a day for 30 days.  The idea behind the challenge is also simple: occupy my frantic brain with action to combat the stagnant feelings of waiting and lack of control.  If you&#8217;d like to join the challenge, post your own set of rules in the comments here.  We can keep tabs on each other. <\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>Without further ado&#8230;The List:<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>\n<strong>1. <em>Be in bed every night before 11 pm.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>2.<em> Be physically active for at least 30 minutes a day (can be non-consecutive if necessary).<\/em><\/p>\n<p>3. <em>Follow Weight Watchers program with renewed obsession.  Feel free to talk about it non-stop and hope that friends and family will forgive me or successfully tune me out.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>4. <em>Write something every day.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>5. <em>Read something every day.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>6. <em>Avoid casual complaining, gossiping and snarkiness.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>7. <em>Complete something I&#8217;ve been avoiding.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>8. <em>Meditate for 5 minutes.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><\/strong><br \/>\nThat&#8217;s it.  Eight little things that I already know make me a little happier.  Starting Monday I hope to update my blog with my progress&#8230;or set backs.  This is much easier than training for a marathon, and I think the benefits will be great.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>\nWish me luck!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Welcome to day one of my 30 Day Super Happy Fun Time Challenge!
