ending of an era


*sniff, sniff*


it shouldn't be a big deal and maybe it makes me seem a bit dramatic, but i am going to miss my daily dose of Diet Coke. yup! i am giving it up. currently sitting on my table is a caffeine-free version, but it's just not the same. i have always struggled with admitting that i had an addiction, not just a preference, for Diet Coke. i had myself convinced that it wasn't as bad as some people made it out to be. that is until i picked up this:

the December issue of the Ensign


needless to say, i didn't even finish the glass i had poured before venturing to my mailbox. don't get me wrong, i did supply myself with a much needed "fix" by way of the gas station so i wouldn't harm my child in a moment of stress. i have since taken my happy pill and am praying that i will be able to overcome the temptation the next time i am face to face with my daughter's evil twin. LOL!

I completely understand what you're going through. I'm finding myself in the same boat! Now I will have to deal with my evil twin too :-(

I did this a few years back. I was really grouchy for a week or so and had horrible headaches. It is so worth it now, I sleep better and am a better person overall. You can do it!!!! Good luck!!!

Ok. Too bad for blogging. Really. Because I missed that article all together, as we use ours for a placematt on the coffee table most often. Now I have no excuse. I brushed off the crumbs and peeled the pages to see what had made you make such a drastic change. Now I have no excuse.
