Lent

Lent came and went and we did it. It was a hard a few times I really wanted to break and have a Dr. Pepper but Winter and I did it. I led her astray in the end. I didn't really do my research I thought it ended on Good Friday but apparently that is the most important day and you end on Saturday. Winter is in California and I know she woke up really early on Friday to have a Dr. Pepper drinking contest with her newly found half brother before he went away on a school trip. Congrats to her she won. I however mostly because the opportunity didnt present itself did not break until Saturday.
I think it was a good experience for us both and we did it together the little kids did it to I think unless they broke when with Mike but I don't think to much. However they don't get it as much. For Winter and I we gave up something and stuck to it.
I've decided I like this little temporary sacrifice and I am going to start a new session.Probably should come up with my own name for it. I am debating between chocolate and fast food. Fast food would save me some money, but sometimes I just have a bad day and don't want to cook so I go grab dinner. Chocolate, has become my new addiction I don't know why, I think there is something to that myth that chocolate makes you happy. I've read articles that depressed people eat a lot of chocolate I am telling you there is something to that.
I think I have convinced a friend to join me and she wants to do chocolate, so I think that is what we will do. I will let you know how the second round goes.
