Struggling...

OK... so no trash talk this time (I am sure you are smiling gleefully at my discomfort, Tyler). I am struggling the last day or so. In fact, I decided to have my meal off today for lunch because I couldn't face more "good" food. It is crazy how guilty you feel, even when it is your free meal. I got a hot chocolate at Starbucks, however, I got it with NO whipped cream & NON FAT milk (yes, I am an annoying yuppie "I'll have a tall peppermint, non-fat, no whip, kids-temp hot chocolate". Um, YES, that is really how you order at starbucks--if you are cool like me). But, I ordered my kids an order of their mini-scones (vanilla-YUM) and I had one (CRAP). Then, I got chips and salsa from CHILE'S and a side salad (dressing on the side). I came home and I had eaten my scone and drank my hot chocolate and I was full, but I had warm tortilla chips that were calling my name because it was my stinkin FREE meal... so I had some of those after my salad. Because I usually have a diet coke with my chips, I cracked open one -- and then, guess what! I drank about an ounce of it and it tasted disgusting, so I dumped the rest down the sink. Mommy, I must admit I thought you were making up stories when you said that after going without DC for awhile it didn't taste good, but IT'S TRUE! It was the one bright spot in my never-ending struggle with my hunger lately. I POURED MY DIET COKE DOWN THE SINK TYLER BART!! So now my life sucks until once again I get a free meal/day. Ho-humm...
