Hey Nells!!! Surprised you still remembered you login info since you have been gone for so long.

Did they move already? We just went this past weekend. Oh it just clicked...now that he can DRIVE I don't have to go. :dance: Guess it hasn't sunk in yet.

Yes Irie...it is tough some days not to eat sweets, like today..haven't had any since February 16th which is Fat Tuesday. I will say I have lost some LBS!!!!!

You have to give up something that would be hard for you to give up. I have such a sweet tooth and not eating them is really hard. I don't really swear so that wouldn't be as much of a challenge for me. I explain it to my kids this way. Jesus sacraficed a lot for us...so I give up something that is hard for me to remind me what he had to go through. It is like a penance.
This might explain it better:
There are traditionally forty days in Lent which are marked by fasting, both from foods and festivities, and by other acts of penance. The three traditional practices to be taken up with renewed vigour during Lent are prayer (justice towards God), fasting (justice towards self), and almsgiving (justice towards neighbour). Today, some people give up a vice of theirs, add something that will bring them closer to God, and often give the time or money spent doing that to charitable purposes or organizations

That's cute Philly...bet it will come back to you quickly.

Nope no WWE...college basketball was on and by the time WWE came on he was passed out cold. It didn't come on until like 11:00 that night.
Oh my house is not the full house. My kids are going to stay with another family who have 2 girls..they go to school with my kids and they are all really close. They are actually taking them to a hotel for a couple of nights so they can pretend they are on vacation! I will be alone...no kids...no hubby! Ahhhh what shall I do?
