True Story: Mom & Sam

I own it September 8, 2024

Me: “Boo, I am detoxing today.”

Sam: “You’re what?!”

Me: “Detoxing… from all the crud I have eaten over the last 2 weeks at the fair and camp. I feel like a slug, I need to get rid of all the sugar and salt.”

Sam: “Okay.”

5 minutes later

Sam: “Mom!” (smile with an eye roll)

Mom: “What?” (sheepish grin)

Sam: “Seriously? I thought you were “detoxing”?

Mom: “Ummm… (sheepish grin again)… I was… (as I giggle)… I just needed to get rid of these Bit-O-Honey candies first.” I shove the unwrapped candy in my mouth.

“HA HA HA HA HA”

Dear god, it’s the story of my life. Sugar. I love it!!!

It takes an act of Congress for me to remember every day that I need to cut it way, way, way back.

Oh well…sigh. Bit-O-Honeys, gone…I bought a bag of candy corn pumpkins last night at the grocery store.

What is wrong with me?!?!?!

Poor Sam… (shake my head, grinning)

Here’s to sugar! Here’s to Monday!

With love,
Kate
