I'm getting a late start today. I'm a slug. I raided the grain silo for 3 days in a row and I'm moving rather
s-l-o-w-l-y.
It all started so innocently. Firstborn and I went to the movies. We shared a large popcorn (but didn't eat all of it...yay us!). We didn't even take advantage of the free refill. Free refill! Yeah, right? Who are they kidding? We paid for a big bag and refill and several more trips for the "free" refill. I'm on to ya, cinema owners. I must confess: I ate more than daughter did but in a former life, Hubby and I would purchase the jumbo size...eat it all plus the refill (sometimes). We would say to ourselves "we'll get the big bag and take the refill home to the kids." Sometimes our little darlings would see the refill bag and sometimes they wouldn't! I'm proud that daughter and I didn't refill it this time. Of course we did share a large hot delicious lightly salted pretzel before said popcorn! Oh, I digress.
So last night and the night before, I was foaming at the mouth for POPCORN!!!! Enter in grain silo. I knew I "hid" our popcorn in the silo and it was calling my name....very loudly...so I was weak and tasted and then gorged on the damn stuff.
I am a slug. I'm moving very slowly today. My brain is in some sort of starchy fog AND I'm sick to my stomach. It could be the flu coming on. I can only hope!
For today, I will avoid all grain products...good or bad...and get back to my "new" self. Did I tell you that I am able to fit (and not snugly, thank you very much) into an outfit I haven't been able to wear in several months almost a year?! That in itself is reason to get back on track and not stop off at the grain silo.
I'm so glad you are on this journey with me, grainiacs.
