Recently, I have been rather low. Diet and exercise, have left the building. My wine embargo, has also been lifted. It’s hard to stay focused, when your life is in a bit of tailspin.
Last week, I bought a packet of biscuits and as I filled up the barrel, I realised they wouldn’t all fit. A normal person would seal the remaining biscuits, in the packet and put them away for the next replen. I didn’t. I ate all the extra biscuits, to enable them to fit in the jar. That was my normal.
My inner sloth is re-emerging, after 3 months of being healthy and active. Later that week, I was eating cereal, right out of the box! Not all the cereal, just picking out the bits that I liked. Such a delightful example, to set my daughter! She didn’t see me but I saw me.
It’s not the first time, I’ve been less than couth. Time to unburden myself. Have You Ever…
Eaten food out of your bin?
Yes. It was a wonderful chocolate cake, that I was determined, to eat in a ladylike fashion. There was half left; after 2 slices and with zero control, I put the rest in the bin. I thought this would stop me from eating more…it did not.
Spent 24 hours in your PJs due to laziness not illness?
Yes, hasn’t everyone?
Walked into a lamppost?
Yes, just once. I have also walked into a glass door. It was clean, not open!
Fallen over in public?
Yes. Sober and drunk, I do like to tickle the cement… with my face! Embarrassing every time. One thing that has improved with age, is that now people stop to help me up rather than just laugh.
Eaten cereal with a fork?
Yes, I’ve also stirred my coffee with a knife. I could definitely cope in a crisis!
Slept in your clothes?
Yes and I have worn them the next day too. Wow I am gross.
I will leave it there for now. Nothing like providing answers, to questions people didn’t ask!
