Fat Tuesday is upon us

Well today is the last day for all those participating in Lent to enjoy whatever it is you plan to sacrifice. I plan to sacrifice desserts (obviously a big whoop compared to what Christ did for me) and to read a book given to me by a friend. I really hope to take the 40 days of Lent and get closer to God by sacrificing something that shouldn't be a big deal (but it is)--both the sugary treats and my time.

I plan to have lots of chocolate chip cookies tonight (truth be told, I ate 3 for breakfast and 4 at lunch)!!

I finished the piece of coca cola cake and my piece of oatmeal cake already. I'm also planning on giving up desserts. I plan on giving up soft drinks too. Good luck on your goal and wish me luck with mine.

not sure what i'm giving up yet...i do know this; living in mobile during mardi gras is horrific...the whole city shuts down (except my hospital, of course) so a bunch of high-society folks can over-indulge in alcohol and throw cheap, plastic beads at people...
hope you enjoy the book; i know i did
see you soon, brother
