I have been kindly reminded over the last four weeks that I made a commitment to blog once a week. Did I?? I’m sure there must be a way to go in and delete that blog and then there would be no proof. Too bad I didn’t know how to do that.

I was also told that I was not allowed to use going back to work as an excuse. I believe the exact words from one of my two favorite grocery clerks was “We all have to work so suck it up princess”. Thanks Patty….appreciate it

So I am sucking it up and I am taking the time to sit and blog for all you faithful blog followers. So….to update you on the last four weeks.

I did start back to work right after March Break. The transition to work actually went a lot better than I expected. The kids have adapted well to their new babysitter and I am enjoying some adult interaction! Meal prep has been a bit of a challenge and I am going to come clean and tell you that there has only been one day that I drank my required glasses of water….EEK…I’m waiting for something to drop from the sky or someone to throw something at my head. I know, I know…number one rule is to make sure you get in the water but holy cripes, who has the time??? ESPECIALLY when I DON’T LIKE WATER!! I have to do better with this one. My biggest challenge throughout the day with the water is that I meet with clients usually back to back and I can’t exactly say “Excuse me, could I go use the washroom”….gee that would be professional.

Oh what was that?? Did someone have a question? Oh yes you, you sitting in front of the computer, can you speak up I can’t hear you? Oh sure I could answer that one. To the general public who didn’t hear that question, my above comment about meeting with clients prompted the one in front of the computer screen to ask where I worked. Now up to this point I haven’t said because I wouldn’t want you to think I was trying to promote it but since someone asked, it would be rude not to answer. I do lending, investments, mortgages, bank accounts, etc at the bank right beside Gow’s on Lahave Street….come look me up, I’m always up for good conversation and I promise to make you laugh at least once See I wasn’t specific so I was fair but thank you for asking. Any more questions??? No, okay well feel free to ask I like answering them. Thanks person in front of the computer screen

I tell you what….for every person that comments on this blog, I will commit to drinking that many glasses of water each day. So if 10 people comment, I’ll drink 10 glasses of water each day until the end of the competition. I have to max it at 12…anymore than that and I’ll have to become a plumber because I’ll spend all my time in the bathroom. This means though if only two people comment then I only have to drink two glasses. So for all of you who harassed me these past four weeks (I can think of eight of you right of the top of my head), let’s see how much you care to comment to support me in my drinking water challenge

Happy Easter Everyone!
