Here is the reason why Mama made me walk so much.
Last night she and Dad had a delicious dinner at Aunt Joan's house. The menu was loaded with calories--fried chicken, potato skins, cannoli cake, which sounds like a feast to me. Oh yeah, broccoli was included too; can't forget the healthy stuff. Mama usually never eats like this anymore but she enjoyed herself and then complained that she ate it all. Dad has this reminder that he gives Mama once in a while--it is called his 80/20 rule--once in a while it is okay to indulge. I agree with Dad--I would love to indulge 80% of the time! Oh no, I think he means 20% of the time is acceptable to go off track.
Anyway, the important question is: Do you think I was offered any of the yummy fried chicken or potato filling with cheese and bacon--nope, not one morsel went in my mouth! Yet, I had to walk extra this morning to burn off some of Mama's extra 20% of calories. Doesn't sound fair to me.
I don't plan on breaking anymore of my records so Mama better not have any plans on over indulging again.
Exhausted...I think I will rest my sweet head for a few hours. |
