Someone asked me a few days ago what I'd been up to lately. I replied, "Oh, not much."
I lied.
It must have just seemed like the easier answer. I wouldn't want to appear too showy and say, "Oh, raising a 4 year old, a 9 month old, taking care of the ranch business, working 40 hours a week, going to school full time, and dabbling in photography in my spare time. Then there's the occasional TV time I try to squeeze in!"
Well my friends, last night I took my last college test and officially logged out of that world for good. (I think, I hope, Yeah, I'm pretty sure).
When I got done, I walked to the living room and asked Jed if we should do some shots or something (joking) (yes mom, alcohol) {gasp}. He said, naw, how about ICE CREAM?! Hmmm, Ok, sounds good to me!
I would have voted for the ice cream as well. Both will put pounds on you (shrinking jeans). However the ice cream tastes much better and doesn't give you a hangover or dry mouth!! And it definitely does not leave you making excuses for something awkward you did while you were indulging! Can't you just hear it -- "It must have been that last scoop of Schwann's Chocolate Peanut Butter ice cream! I'll NEVER touch that stuff again!"
