Confessions

I ate five of my mom's most delicious chocolate chip cookies in 24 hours. And I didn't even feel guilt. So I had another one a day later! How does she make them taste so good? Love, I'm sure of it.

I vacuum and dust my house at least twice a week. There are several reasons for this. The first is need. I swear the dust multiplies exponentially here. And my kids leave a trail of crumbs with their snacks. And second, I am bored so I might as well clean.

I have to secretly throw away Tyler's papers from school and church in the laundry room garbage can. If he had his way, he would keep every single paper from every single class.

I cannot stand a mess. At all. My kids know they can only have a few toys out at a time. Does this make me a bad mom?

I still haven't put away Hannah's Halloween costume yet. I couldn't tell you why.

I cannot watch scary movies. I will be up all night...which means Steve is up too. Sorry honey! I may or may not have looked out of the shower just to make sure no one is there after watching a creepy movie. Maybe.

I simultaneously wonder if I am ruining my kids, and yet know that I'm doing the best I can so that's got to be enough.

If I go more than three days without working out, I have a fear I will end up on The Biggest Loser.

I have never really liked my name and I didn't have a middle name growing up. Yet when I got married and had to change my name legally, I couldn't come up with a middle name.

I am addicted to carbs. I could not go a week without some sort of bread or pasta. And don't get me started on my love of cheese (all kinds) and ranch dressing. And my mom's chocolate chip cookies.

There you have it. My confessions. Trust me, there are many more I could list. Just for fun, what are some of your confessions?

I don't think a carb addiction is a bad thing!

And I am eating an Oreo Blizzard while reading this, so...

ha ha ha I know what you mean on the biggest loser confession! ;) love it. And I wish I was clean! Wish I wasn't so lazy and did clean like you actually...Someday :)

I too wish I was clean like you. Right now, especially with all the sick kids that have been in our house, my house is a disaster!
I secretly throw out lots of Guy's papers too. I keep the better ones for a while but when the pile gets really big we have him go through them and decide who to send them to (one for grandma, one for grandpa....). After that we throw the rest away. He wants to keep them all just like Tyler does.
I often wonder if I'm ruining my kids... being a mom is tough!
I enjoyed your confessions, thanks for sharing

A WEEK without carbs? Um, try a day.

Confessions:
I'm so sick of blogging I could cry, but I feel pressured to keep going- at least for another month.

I haven't worked out AT ALL for two entire days. This is very, very weird for me. Even weirder- I'm kind of dreading tomorrow because I know I have to work out. Boo.

I hate going to bed early and I hate waking up. Period.

I'm so sad Downton Abbey is over that I'm contemplating re-watching the entire show.

Speaking of- I actually started to like Mary towards the end. What's up with that?!

Dallas and I spent $84 at the Cheesecake Factory on Saturday night. Kill me now.
