Fancy sending this home with my kids. What a mean thing to do. Ok, I may have fist pumped and written “YES thank you” on twitter last night.
They’ll be gone in a week if they sit at my house.
The fights have already started. No good can come of this AT ALL.
We’ve already had one each (I may have had 2 shhhh…).
Its a viscious cycle…
Kids are whinging and crying for a chocolate and I give in saying “ok, eat the stupid chocolate – eat it all until you are sick!”
They eat the stupid chocolate, then they race around screaming and punching and fighting each other.
Our house resembled a wild bunch of untamed animals at the zoo last night. So much sugar and screaming.
I’ve been reading all the fuss about Quitting Sugar lately. I know deep down we, as a family, eat far too much of it. I know I do. I love lollies. In fact I think I am addicted to lollies. Yes, I know sugar is not good for me at all.
I don’t think I want my house to be ‘sugar free’, I’m not really interested in that. But I do think we could eat a lot less.
It’s like when you need to go on a diet, or quit smoking… you’ve got to want to do it. I’m almost there, but not quite. 😉
I quit alcohol last year. So I know I can quit stuff. I could rave on and on about the benefits I’ve found in giving up alcohol. Until you do these things, you have no idea what you’ve been missing out on (or putting yourself through)!
So, we’ll just finish this big $50 box of chocolates and then I’ll think about quitting sugar…
Have you quit sugar?

Next on the agenda today…
I’ve drawn the winner of the $100 voucher to spend at The Media Maid (my business). Thank you all for entering!
The winner is Anna!
Now don’t forget I am also giving away 70 tickets to The Block Live Show here.
Today I’m having photos taken to show my support for a new social media website about to be launched by Fairfax called Connect Pink – it’s an online community for women who live in regional areas. It’s big launch this Friday. The website is here and follow them on twitter here.
Have a great day!
