Hi guys,
Bami - My XFIL would take his wife's car to the gas station 2-3 times a week to make sure the tank was always full. Unfortunately his son would stroke if he had to put gas in my car
and if he did he would put like two bucks in! What the h**l is up with that? I would have given him the money back - just fill the stinking thing up!
Add that to the list of why we aren't married anymore.
Ruth - yes we loved each other very much long ago but he is an old fashioned rich German farm boy and I always had my sights set for the city - art, culture, museums, good restaurants. Opposites attract and can sometimes - not be the best thing for each other. I've been an artist all my life and the bohemian way of life has always suited me. He never could manipulate me with his money. (Stupid me - I'd be driving a Mercedes and never have worked a day in my life
) Some day when DS is grown and gone I will have a loft downtown in the winter and something on Lake Michigan in the summer.
Barb - you can have DS make his first communion without you guys being part of the church. I'm divorced and the church doesn't recognize the
X's and my marriage. I'm actually the X's 3rd wife (how the heck did I miss that?
) They however are smart enough to realize that it isn't DS's fault and they want him to become a good Catholic. Despite his parents problems.
We have what is called the "Catholic Information Society" here in West Michigan where any Catholic can take their children to be baptized, confirmed or 1st communioned without officially belonging. There has to be some kind of cachecism or something around you. He will need to do his first reconciliation and then first communion.
Well I was good all weekend and today I blew it. Starbucks frappachino and pizza. I decided while slurping down the frappachino - 26 grams of sugar chicks - that I need something major! I'm bored to tears with everything and it is my fault because I haven't been making dinners ahead or anything so I just keep eating the same things over and over. So I decided that I'm going to try the "French Women Don't Get Fat" book diet for awhile but I will adapt it over to be SBD friendly. The basic gist of the book is portion control. Most of it is SBD friendly except the fruit. So I will do away with the fruit for the first two weeks and then add back in SBD friendly food. But I have to eat Leek soup for the first two days.
My DF walked in when I was cooking it and said what the
is that?
I told him diet soup and he laughed and said - no one will get fat eating that! I'm also going to cut out the drinkies for awhile because they have been screwing me up with empty calories. So tomorrow is crack down day
I figure leek soup for two days will make P1 seem like a dream.
I will covert to P1 on Wednesday.
Look at me all long winded. I'm sure that the leek soup is going to make me really crabby.
Poor world.
See ya tomorrow.
