Random Tuesday Thoughts - Quick, Hide the Holiday Food

If you don't have anything to do today, or even if you do, head over to The Un Mom for some Random Tuesday Thoughts.

Last week I started taking a bead jewelry class. Yeah so, I totally suck in the creative department. While everyone else (the two other people, my mom and the instructor) is making beautiful creations I'm creating a necklace that resembles kindergarten chaos. I'm going to have to be on my A game tomorrow because my daughter and sister will be there, and I refuse to let them show me up too.

Since when is it fighting words to use manners? The other day I was grocery shopping with my boys when I came across a female and an employee chatting it up at the end of the aisle. I say "excuse me" and wait for them to move. Nothing. So I say it again, a tad bit louder this time, thinking they just didn't hear me the first time. They scootch over and the lady goes all angry ninja on me. In a tone loud enough to create a scene she condescendingly yells "Excuse me, Excuse me. Don't you think you had enough room to get through. Geez, you could've fit."

It's at this point in time that I surprise even myself and instead of going all kung fu crazy on her arse, I just say "There was enough room for me, but there's a cart coming in behind me." You would've thought that would've been enough, but Oh Heck No! She had to get the last word in a few minutes later before leaving the aisle by screaming "EXCUSE ME! OH EXCUSE ME!"

With my boys being her saving grace, I bit my tongue and carried on. My son, Adam, said "Someone must've woke up on the wrong side of the bed today." Amen son, Amen!

My new TV show addiction is IRT: Deadliest Roads. It's about three truckers who go to the Hindu regions to make deliveries. One of them is even a female, who obviously has bigger kahunas than I'd ever think of having. She deserves a Female Of The Year Award in Cosmo's next handouts. I don't care if these three truckers get paid a million an episode, it's still not enough.

My husband knows I'm sooo not a fan of phone forwards. So I was surprised the other day when he sent me one of a very large female laying in bed in her underwear. I scrolled down expecting to read a joke. It was then that the joke was on me. The text read "I took a pic of you yesterday while you were sleeping in your underwear." The lady in the pic was me!

Serious time for a crash diet. Pumpkin pies and candy canes, I'll only be dreaming of you in my vivid thoughts. I can't afford to wait until the New Year's resolutions to make diet promises.

***That's not meant to offend anyone, regardless of size. It was just a huge wake-up call for me.***
