Tupperware, Pirates and Guilt.
Friday night I went to my first and last pampered chef party. We ate Cheese and drank wine while watching a lady make white veggie pizza with so many different gadgets they wouldn't fit on her presentation table. After a few choice jokes about ordering Domino's we settled down and watched the "show". The gadgets were pretty cool but all I kept thinking was how on earth will I fit them all in the dishwasher? Now if they could come up with one gadget to chop, dice and slice everything, I'll buy it. I did end up placing an order for a jar opener, I have an extremely weak grip and a veggie chopper, I'm not much of a cook but I really love to make pasta sauces, dips, dressing, spreads and salsa. There is always a big bowl of homemade salsa in our frig, this chopper looked great for dicing all those veggies. Which can take most of my Sunday by hand.
Saturday night I went to my first Pirate party called the "South Jersey Ghost Research annual Buccaneers ball"... I found a really nice costume which cost so much I may need to have a Halloween party to justify the cost of it. The party was so much fun... dancing, singing, water fights, tons of food... these ghost folks sure do no how to party.
On a sad but upfront and honest note... I smoked. I know, I know this is horrible! I spent the day Sunday beating myself up and anyone who got in my way. There is nothing anyone can say that will top the guilt I feel already, so go easy on me. I left the pack at the party and resumed the effort, that's the least I can do. In the past I have been so tormented about failing that I just went back to smoking, I can't do that this time, so I won't.

Hey - the costume looks great... And I know exactly what you mean about those pampered chef parties. I still have stuff in original wrappings from over 10 years ago that I bought to appease someone at a stupid pampered chefs party.... Grief.... Regarding the smoking - it sometimes takes a few mistakes to get your head on straight - you'll make it - You know what you need to do....I always have faith in you....
thank you mom, I don't always have faith in myself so I'll borrow some of yours :)
I've noticed a tendency of you biting off more than you can chew.
I cant recall you ever using the little steps aproach to anything since I've known you.
Quiting smoking may not be a little step program but it is an important program.
remember: stress makes you lightup!
head it off at the pass.
Dont worry about life
just quit smoking
easier said than done. yes
but dont worry about that
YOU WANT TO QUIT SMOKING, SETTLE FOR NOTHING LESS.
I sound like that Tony Roberts guy
only shorter and black.
maybe I should sell this crap.
you look like Quinn dancing in this picture
I wasn't dancing at that moment silly. Or is that what you meant.
