I do admit, I have indulged a little too much this year, and I'm definitely going to try to get back into a routine of working out (something I actually had once for a few years, and I felt great...then I got remarried, and we both got lazy...not good)! <BR/><BR/>I'm looking forward to feeling healthy again!<BR/><BR/>Take good care,<BR/>LisaDust-bunnyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11610355970669069345noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33624309.post-63178427912953609332007-12-25T22:23:00.000-05:002007-12-25T22:23:00.000-05:00Dear Lisa,I hope this helps you to feel a little b...Dear Lisa,<BR/><BR/>I hope this helps you to feel a little better about your cookie issue- I just ate an entire box of ice cream sandwiches! I didn't even bother to use Christmas cookies- I used ice cream sandwiches, which I could have used any other time of the year! At least you're seasonally appropriate!<BR/><BR/>Hugs and happy holidays,<BR/>bettyB.S.https://www.blogger.com/profile/08724883690591213622noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33624309.post-24195055606173535682007-12-23T22:24:00.000-05:002007-12-23T22:24:00.000-05:00I've been eating sugar all month.

This is not an easy process (especially for my stepdaughter), but there is no choice right now. It's either my sanity or her freedom, and I'm sorry, but in this case, my mental state has to come first. And kicking some butt might be effective, also (Dave, you crack me up)!<BR/><BR/>...And as for the cookie issue...well, there are some more to be baked today, as well as brownies from scratch...so I'm just being really unhealthy and staying away from most food in general because I am eating WAY too much of my own sweets...you know, Snickerdoodles for breakfast, butter cookies for lunch, and I guess I'll be having brownies for dinner, hee hee....<BR/><BR/>Anyway, I hope everything is well with all of you, and that you have a beautiful Christmas with the ones you love!<BR/><BR/>Take good care,<BR/>LisaDust-bunnyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11610355970669069345noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33624309.post-5102544784023361132007-12-22T21:50:00.000-05:002007-12-22T21:50:00.000-05:00Dear Sweet Lisa, You have to stop allowing your ex...Dear Sweet Lisa, You have to stop allowing your ex's access to your own personal space. Perhaps, you could have your hubby tell his ex that this is your home and she needs to speak to her daughter in a neutral place and stop poisoning the air in your home. Never let someone drive you to the cookie jar ---- remember, in your own home, you are the BOSS!

It's not fair to you. Daughter has grown in the last 3 years..so new rules have to be inforced. Why should you be victimized if she can't act like an adult?<BR/>A few cookies can't hurt.
