Luscious Chaos

Okay, the blogging begins. We had a great time last night Trick or Treating. Spencer and Michaela bags were so heavy, they somehow convinced me to carry them. I would wait on the sidewalk as they brought their candy. Michaela told me it was a good idea for me to set the bags down and rest while they were up getting the candy. Please see my name under the definition of "Helicopter Mom" in the dictionary.

Today begins an exciting challenge at the Tate Home. A few weeks ago Michaela challenged me to go without Diet Coke for a month. I agreed but she had to reciprocate by refraining from candy for a month. She agreed until I reminded her Halloween would fall in her month. We decided to wait until today. So after gourging last night on candy and diet coke like a couple of drunks entering rehab, we have begun. I guess I was truly addicted. I have thought longingly about Diet Coke at least 10 times this morning.

Spencer has joined the challenge but only after being lured in with a prize of a Gameboy game if he makes it the entire month.

Doug has chosen not to participate. In fact we has drinking a warm Diet Coke for breakfast this morning. Torture...

Love to All
