Default ohhh those thin mints!

Girl Scout cookie session is a bitch!

I HAD to buy two boxes but I'm happy to say that they have been locked in the car trunk since I've purchased them.

Amen to that about Girl Scout cookies. As y'all may recall, I am a minister and today I had to make good to three little gals who each had cajoled me for a box. I didn't have wallet handy, so a guy at coffee hour paid one girl and I owe him $4...the other two hit up my wife who was elsewhere in the church...Bottom line: We paid $12 and ended up with only one box of cookies! Not sure if that means we're just totally stupid or if I should get those Girl Scouts to raise money for the church!!! But I think for my health and sanity, I am going to use "N-O" next time....Even though I avoided my favorites from the old days (peanut butter sandwich cookies) and bought the kind I least like.
Anyway, had to add my 2cents to this...Take care one and all.

Default I just cant resist those Girl Scouts selling cookies.

I NEVER say no to them! And they all know it. I'm an easy mark. My daughter was a Girl Scout and I just really, really believe in the good things that organization provides for young girls.

Sooooo ... $60 bucks later, Ive bought from all the GS girls that know me (mostly employee's kids) and all the ones in the neighborhood.

I aint eating them tho. No way.

I open one or two boxes a day and put them in the kitchen at work after lunch in case anyone gets hungry. Is it wrong to fatten up your employees?

i am not doing so well.

I may have not been honest with myself.

I am fighting a battle. Perhaps I had this surgery before I was ready.

I am not used to self esteem being tied to body image. I have to add 4 inches to my height before I dare to hop back on the Wii fit.
