"The wind was against them now, and Piglet's ears streamed behind him like banners as he fought his way along, and it seemed hours before he got them into the shelter of the Hundred Acre Wood and they stood up straight again, to listen, a little nervously to the roaring of the gail among the tree tops.

"Supposing a tree fell down, Pooh, when we were underneath it?"

"Supposing it didn't" said Pooh after careful thought!

A.A Milne Winnie the Pooh

I have joined the April challenge to work on one area that is very accountable and that is exercise. Another area however that is a bit illusive to be accountable, is staying in the present, not worrying about the tomorrows but enjoying the todays. I suppose I am somewhat like Piglet trying to be like Pooh.

We (I) can always look towards the what if's in the world but instead of doing it with a positive spin as Pooh did, I am more like Piglet. So the challenge for me is making a positive habit change. I knowthis is going to take much more than the month of April, but you know I am excited to be working on it, moving on it and not just thinking about it.

We can look at PP or getting healthy or whatever we wish in many ways, Piglet or Pooh, it is all about attitude sometimes and allowing us to be in the best place for it. Yesterday was a great day for me with my Pooh thinking cap on, will work hard today to do the same.

Are you having any Piglet issues? :) We all do, what are you doing to make those habit changes? And if you haven't been to the April challenge yet, make that the first one!

Have a Great Sunday!

Yep, Billie, I am definetly a Piglet type person.
But, I am working on changing that habit.
Have a great Sunday.

I live so much in the today that when tomorrow comes, I forgot to be ready for it, So for me I need to plan ahead so I can get in everything I want and need to do. I am taking a three day water color portrait class from a water color artist that I love on Friday, Saturday and Sunday of this week. The class is 1 1/2 hours away and I don't want to stay in the town , so I will be driving each day. The YMCA opens at 5 am, so I am working at getting there early so I won't forget my work out before I have to leave. I need to prepare food ahead because they order out pizza.
I also still have supplies for the class I need to buy. I am so excited that Cindy Agan is offering a class near me. She has a site on line. Her stuff looks like photos. Sometimes I can get so single minded that I block out all other things . I almost have to pin notes to myself.

I tend to be a Piglet inside - and a Pooh in front of others :rolleyes:. Now, I just need my inner self to accept and become more like Pooh :p!

And then when I have a Pooh reaction, I worry because I'm not worried. :confused:

LOL, Nean - I'm so glad I'm not the only one who worries if there's nothing to worry about :p! I'm always so sure I'm missing something that needs my attention and worry :rolleyes:...
