Lent? Do you Celebrate…er… Participate?


  • I am giving up candy and shopping for myself for Lent.  This means:
    • No online shopping buying random articles of clothing or make up or whatever for myself.  I can shop for the Husband though.  But he never wants anything.  I don’t think I’ll have to worry about a dramatic drop in weight loss to the point of needing new pants, as I have a crap load pants right now that are too small.  Go me.
    • No Candy.  That is pretty simple.  It’s not as if I sit around and devour bags of M&Ms or anything.  But I do tend to snack on it when bored.  That’s over with now.  No more running to my coworkers office for a hershey kiss.  No more stealing reeses peanut butter cups from the communal candy jar.  Nothing.
  • Hilarious Post about how Obama is Ruining Our Country 
  • I am resting today.  3 days of running was good for me, made me feel awesome, but now my legs and body needs sleep.  I am getting my hair did, and will post pictures ASAP.  I am excited about getting my hair done, always makes me feel amazing.
  • Tomorrow will resume running with a 3.1 miler and then Friday will be my long run day.
  • But seriously… did you watch The State of the Union?  What were you thoughts?  I promise not to argue if they differ from mine.  I just want a general consensus on how people felt about what was said.  I was amazed at how emotional I got during it though.  Especially during the Gun Related talk about how these people affected by Gun Violence deserve a vote.  Which is true.  That is the undying point of democracy.  We all get a vote.  I straight up started crying, and Husband was like “What is wrong with you?”  Yeah he needs to work on that.  Asking a crying woman in a condescending tone anything will get you the death glare, which he got.  (He learned his lesson :-) )

One thought on “Lent? Do you Celebrate…er… Participate?

  1. I usually participate in Lent but this year I am not. I figure, I have dealt with enough loss & sacrifice in my life the last few months (and presently) that the 40 days of Lent are a cake walk in comparison.

    If you feel the urge to shop, you are welcome to buy me things. ;)

    I did not watch Obama’s speach last night…but my MIL did…and the two of you should NEVER EVER EVER meet.
