Gum

Not very appetizing, I know, but I feel kind of like a recovering smoker - I gotta have my gum! It's a crutch in the battle with the munchies, but it really, really helps. The only downside is that my 2-yr-old keeps swiping it, and I have to hide it so she doesn't keep popping it in her mouth like, well, popcorn.

P.S. Still working the taxes today. What am I doing writing about gum? Oh, well, The Queeen of Distractedness is what I call my teenage daughter. The apple did not fall far from the tree on that one. Marci, that really was a fabulous post! Sorry I was a crankpot last night, but I'm slightly, only slightly better today. I could really use some athletic goals. Maybe when we catch up financially with this tax return (why I'm working so hard on it!), I can get my gym membership back, and get back on track.

  1. I'm so glad you are feeling better. Sometimes life is just crazy. So, I want to know more about your business. How are things going with that?

  2. I LOVE gum! In fact, I just bought 2 giant packs of it at Sam's a few weeks ago.

  3. Gum makes me so HUNGRY!!! In fact sometimes if I feel overly full, I'll pop some gum so that feeling goes away.

  4. I used to be a gum chewer, mostly in high school but now I can't have a piece in my mouth for more than about 5 minutes before my jaw starts to hurt. I have resorted to wintergreen flavored Altoid Smalls when I just gotta have something in my mouth. I do have the same problem as you Becky with the kids getting into my purse and swiping them. I can't believe how quickly they can empty a tin.

    Hope things work out with taxes and all.
