[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]First, buy yourself some shoes. Everything in life is worse if your feet hurt, and it won’t be long before your back hurts, too. If you can make it work, buy your shoes new. If not, get what you can from goodwill or similar and add a new pair of inserts. Second, PPs are right; if you already have olive oil and a food processor, make yourself a vat of hummus. If you have any free time, start borrowing cookbooks and nutrition books from the library. Learn to cook foods that use cheaper ingredients or are very calorie-dense. Third, get some exercise. Go for a walk (or run if that’s your thing). Find a free community yoga class and take your DD. You’re seriously stressed, and you’ll do yourself a world of good if you give your body an outlet for all that. Fourth, food pantries, co-ops, and your church if you’re religious can be a great resource for you right now. Don’t feel guilty using whatever help you need to get through this period of time. I don’t know whether you’d qualify for temporary govt assistance, but you should check. Fifth, try to relieve a little of the financial pressure. Can you seek a temporary support order while your divorce is pending? Of course, I don’t know your work situation, but it sounds like a little cash would go a long way right now. If you have a job, can you ask for a raise? Add a few hours? Or if you don’t currently work, is there anything you can do freelance until something better comes along? For instance, I had a friend who worked full time but did a couple of hours of copy editing each night after her kids were in bed. [/quote] Why don't you post for OP a list of all of the free community yoga classes available in PG county. I'll wait.[/quote]
