Bloggie Burnout

Life and Family
Spring cleaning, kids' sports, school activities, getting the yard and house ready for summer...and blogging? Um, yeah. Blogging is just not much of a priority for me lately. And honestly, I just have so little of use going through this old brain of mine lately! Seriously - empty.
Add to that the fact that Thomas literally screeches at me and tries to push me off this chair each time I sit in front of the computer (he even bit me in the leg today!)...a not-so-subtle hint?
In other news - I'm wondering...if I eat 5 chocolate chip oatmeal cookies for breakfast...can I just say "I had oatmeal"? Does that count?
Wanna hear something really ironic considering what I've been pondering this morning? I just wrote an article for Helium called "20 Tips For Dieting Success". Oatmeal cookies were nowhere on the list. I know how to have dieting success...but actually doing it is another story. If I actually get paid for that article I'm going to feel like such a hypocrite. Maybe I'll just take the money and go buy chocolate.
See...empty.
Don't beat yourself up too much about the cookies...granted, they aren't plain old steel cut oats, but compared to what's in alot of commercial oatmeals these days, you've got to be even if not a little ahead!!
Have a blessed day :)
I say if at least one third of the ingredients of your oatmeal cookie is oatmeal, then yes, you had oatmeal...
but I'm no expert on this subject...
And hey, there's nothing wrong with eating chocolate on an empty brain. Nada.
Ever heard of the Nike Women's Marathon? They have a "chocolate mile" DURING THE RACE. If Nike can do it...we can just do it, too!
