sunday sins | lack of affection

sooo...about those carbs i swore off. was i crazy?? what was i thinking?? it was certainly tricky, and i pretty much gave up after a week. for starters, i wasn't actually trying to give up carbs so much as bread. but i would find myself choosing between two snacks and thinking "well, this one is chocolate and that 's bad...but at least it's not bread!" so that was unproductive. second, i had some teeth trouble and they ached like crazy for a week, so when i was choosing meals, all the carb based ones (soft breads, noodle soups etc) just seemed like the softer option on my teeth.
however, i will say that i did not go to tim hortons once in the past two weeks, or eat a single bagel. so hey, that's something.

gustav klimpt's the kiss

for the next two weeks i will not turn away affection from my husband. i know this sounds strange - actually it makes me sound frigid or something. let me explain: my husband and i are very affectionate. in our house there is lots of neck sniffing, nose brushing, side-eye kissing and inappropriate grabbing. we love to play. but i started to realize that i push him off a lot. because i'm too hot, because i'm in a rush, because i'm...internetting. and i have to wonder - are any of those things more important than a nuzzle or hug with j? probably not. and do they really take that much time out of my life? not likely.

on that p.d.a. ridden note - i'm off to be lovey dovey!
