When I got to work today (Friday) I realized that my next day back to work I am going to be living sugar free. As I opened the treat drawer in my desk I was happy to find that my normal supplies were low - no chocolate covered almonds, peanuts or raisins and I recently finished my chocolate orange. To my delight I found I had 4 of my mum's homemade chocolate dipped carmels there and promptly ate them! : ) I wondered if I could be trusted to have the remaining stash so near at hand? Or should I eat it all today, or share it all with my co-workers? I decided to share, they aren't such gluttonous sugar addicts like me... though I'm not sure how much sugar they put in their coffee. : ) So needless to say, there are still a lot of sugary treats in the drawer...
And then to make things even worse! At 4 pm Jer calls to tell me that Dairy Queen, which closes every winter, has just opened up today!!! OF COURSE IT DID!! I have to drive by there at least twice a day. Thankfully, it's closed in the morning, but still the visual cue gets my mouth watering!! (i did notice a new sign this morning and wondered when they were opening. i never imagined it would be today!) What am I going to do? Go today and have my favourite thing? Go tomorrow and have my second favourite thing? doing that is not exactly tappering off the sugar to prep for the real deal of no sugar starting Sunday!! oh, the headaches I will have if I don't continue with the taper down method... So maybe I'll have just one small treat before Sunday? ; ) And maybe i'll lock up everything from my treat drawer...
