Maybe not! I had a good day yesterday, eating healthy and all that jazz, only to wake up this morning feeling like I had been hit by a Mac truck. Good grief! It’s one of 2 things, a regular old cold, or possibly the lovely side effects of not having sugar, carbs, or caffeine all day yesterday. Either way, blech!
Well, as Providence would have it, one of the ladies that works for Garden of Life commented on yesterday’s post. So, I sent her a quick email and asked her if after only one day on this diet, could I be experiencing withdrawals. She responded right away and said most likely I was experiencing detox symptoms. Now, typically we eat pretty healthy around here, but I know I was eating way too much sugar. So, that information in hand, I am even more motivated to keep going, even though today has been rough… But according to my scale I lost 3 pounds yesterday….hmmm…
All you mothers out there know what my house looks like tonight, after being out of it most of the day. We did get the basics of school done, but the Littles were sort of left to their own today. Would you like to see how they spent their time?????
Sure you would, laugh with me so that I don’t cry!
That’s right! Not only did they trash their bedrooms, they also became “collectors” of bits of cinder blocks in our backyard. But wait there’s more….
That’s right folks, the girls wrote on the carpet in permanent purple marker! This is the reason I don’t let my children have markers, because they will do nutty things like this. They knew it was wrong!!!!! Punks!
So, thank you to whomever gave Tootle Bug the markers, we love you in a special way now :)
Oh, and I am taking bets…who thinks Mr. Over Kill will rip up their carpet while they are at Grandma’s tonight, leaving them with nice cold cement????
It’s the safe bet, I promise :)
If your body is in detox…remember it is very important to drink lots of water…flush…flush…flush. Well, don’t go crazy and down a couple of gallons but the recommened amount would do wonders!!!
Yes, I am drinking about 1 1/2 gallons a day right now…
No caffeine? Okay, forget detox…my body would go into convulsions!! Consider the carpet art a prelude to the next remodel…gotta love markers!
So……..did Mr. O rip out their carpet?
