n. one who observes Lent
The first day of Lent was on the 9th...and true to form, Im slow on the uptake and will start late. Though I am not a Catholic...I do enjoy the challenge and symbolism behind this practice. Interestingly enough...Im having a troublesome time coming up with something that Im willing to give up for 40 days. I know my daughter could supply me with copious lists of "toxic foods" that should be nixed from my daily intake...white flour, white sugar, processed foods, high fructose corn syrup...etc, etc, etc. With the recent scare we have had with dear Lisa these last weeks...Anna is even more adamant that I should be taking greater care in what I ingest. SOOoooo.....what's it gonna be?!
But wait a minute!!!
Maybe it doesnt have to be about food, glorious food...
Maybe blog surfing
or facebook
or Glee...though that wouldnt be completely fair...for I have already decided not to watch anymore.
(Oh the Vices!!!)
Oreos... but what about the fun the "L's" and I have with our milk and cookies!!!??
Pizza
Impatient stares...
There are so many to choose from...so little strength.
What would you choose to loose ....for 40 days?

So what did you decide to give up? Me...negativity would be my vice.
Negativity is mine too! That's the one! I am proud of you mom! Love you!!!!!!!

Nagging. I nag. Boo! I believe I was destined to nag (check out my name spelled backwards 'nag em'). Poor Jordan never stood a chance.
