Eating Parly Out of Boredom

Ashley, I'm just hoping to volunteer somewhere. (I'm pretty sure that the YMCA, gym, will take me, but I'm holding out for a museum.) Now, I intend to work out in the gym 3 days a week and try to get thirty minutes of exercise in everyday using the Nintendo Wii Fit Plus that I'm about to buy.

Volunteer sounds like a great idea Brenda!  Members, do you volunteer? Have you thought about it?
 
Have you thought of any other ways to distract yourself Brenda?  Members, any suggestions?

Good for you Brenda!
Volunteer work is highly rewarding. I myself do some volunteer job and I love it!

Used to smoke to try to ease the boredom. Now I think I may be eating more to do so. Lying about my qualifications to get a part-time volunteer job. How crazy is that? But I'm thinking I need to do something for a few hours a few days a week. The museums here get more volunteer applications than they can handle. So I have knocked a few years off of my education and assuring the ones who have answered me that I do intend to stay a while.
