oh Lent

It is wrong to give up work for Lent? It's just one of the things I'm considering giving up for the holy 40. But just in case I find out my job doesn't consider 40 days off kosher, I have come up with a few other options that may not require me to loose my job or a paycheck:


- Making my bed
- Doing laundry
- Grocery shopping
- Paying bills


I need to run these past John when he gets home - he might be able to narrow down my options.


Last year I attempted to give up Facebook for Lent. That lasted about 4 hours, until  I remembered that I was in a class called SOCIAL MEDIA. I've also attempted to give up homework before - for some reason college wasn't to keen on the idea and was quick to inform me that (like my current job) 40 days of no homework resulted in failing. Since I couldn't figure out an acceptable way to tell my parents why I had been kicked out, I promptly started back on my homework.


Back in the day I used to be like the greatest Lent giver-uper ever. I've given up everything (at one time or another)that a 
7 - 14 year old would consider to be sacred:


- Katchup
- Chocolate
- Chicken Fingers
- Fried Food
- Chic Fil A




The jury is still out as to what I will ban from my life for the next 40 days. I will consult the judge (John) when he gets home and announce the verdict tomorrow.


As for today's outfit .. I stepped a smidgen out of my comfort zone and got a little creative with my scarve and belt thanks to a tip I learned from this blogging fashionista (Linley, from Dwelling and Telling). Nobody said anything about my creative outfit all day - I'll just take the liberty of interpreting their silence to mean that they loved it.
