I’m pretending I’m doing the South Beach diet with my Hubby but I sneak 1 piece of chocolate EVERY SINGLE day, put full fat cream in my coffee, and I’m pretty sure I’ll be sneaking some popcorn tonight. (I will have a little bit of guilt about pretending it was the kids that ate it.)
I told the girls they couldn’t have a sleepover AGAIN tonight because their Daddy said so. Truth is, I’m one exhausted Mama and there is not enough coffee in the world to get me through another sleepover this week.
I have never let my Hubby seen me shave. Ever. We have been married for almost 14 years. The “how to’s” of shaving my bits and pieces are my little secret. The thing is I hide these things, well at least I did until I was dumb enough to post about Things Even My Hubby Doesn’t Know. Guess what? He read it, now he knows.
My girls made home made chocolate chip cookies today. I let them have only 2 after supper, because more then that would be gluttonous So why didn’t I stop at at umm 3 or at least 4? Simple. I have different rules for me, then them. Is it fair? Not at all, but they will have to have their own kids to get their revenge.
Tonight, I had a night to myself. Hubby was away and both girls were at play dates. I had a date with “Me”. I did very well at first. Did some shopping retail therapy, grabbed a Starbucks, then went home. I was lonely? Turns out I am also guilty of being pathetic! I forget how to be alone. 🙂
So my resolutions. I figure I can still do the South Beach with the Hubs…with chocolate, tell white lies about my reasoning for sleepovers and cookie limitations, and practice being alone cause frankly the shopping was amazing. I may be guilty of these simple suburban sins, but the truth is, I feel no guilt. That’s how I roll.
Roll babay! Roll! The Starbuck almost set me back but I guess the McD Frappe didn’t count that I had last night.
Me therapy = necessary time and like whoa on the pits/pieces maintenance. Your hubby is lucky regardless…maybe he can help with the “upkeep”?
LOVE how you roll! I could never live without chocolate. I’d rather be alone. Anyway, thanks for stopping by my blog. It really means a lot. And might I add that I truly enjoy reading your posts. You really have a knack for writing. And you’re funny, too! I think I need some retail therapy of my own. And more Starbucks.
Well you’re just outing yourself about all kinds of stuff! I think any diet that restricts chocolate is bunk!
Is it bad that now even I want to know about how you shave your bits and pieces? lol
you are my type of chick!!
So funny, I love it. I sneak chocolate a lot too, but I’m just sneaking it from my brain, which knows I shouldn’t, haha.
I suck at ME time too! We forget how to do it!
I did the Atkins diet w/ hubby, but I had me some bread every day, or I would sneak pasts. I love it.
Having a date with yourself is the best thing EVER. You can eat straight out of the fridge or carton, Have popcorn for dinner and watch what ever you want. OK … So I clean when I am alone, because that is what mom’s do. Enjoy!
I love this post, particularly as Ollie was allowed only on choc chip muffin today and Ive already had three!!
I had alone time today but spent it at Costco…not as much fun as your retail therapy…and had my Iced Via this morning so passed on Starbucks on the way there.
I am so with you on the sleepovers! They are so much work for the mom. I have now learned to keep cinnamon rolls on hand at all times so I don’t have to work too hard for breakfast! 🙂
Sounds perfectly sane, normal and balanced to me! yey!
I’m not a mother myself. However, I feel I will totally have rules like yours when I become one.
No shame.
Hey, it all sounds good to me. Especially the alone time. I loooove alone time.
