Default Funny story (well, mildly funny, anyway)

I'd better start off my admitting that housecleaning is not my forte. Also,
my clothes dryer is on the fritz (new one is delivered tomorrow,
hallelujah!) so the dirty clothes pile on my bedroom floor is horrendous.

So a week ago I'm getting ready to mow the lawn and I don't want to wear my
last remaining pair of clean jeans or the "not so dirty can't get another
wear out of them" other pair. The rest of my jeans in current rotation are
gathering mildew in my nonworking dryer. I hit my reserves of jeans too
small to wear and try on a few and find a pair that has patches on its
patches but fits. In fact, it may even be a tad large. Yay, me!

Now during the week this week I had some food problems. I stayed within my
points budget but my choices were pretty abysmal. I bought a can of the Fat
Free Pringles and ate the whole thing in 2 days. Not to mention the five
ounces of bakd Lay's potato chips I had those days. And then yesterday I
had a sensible breakfast and lunch but got hungry before dinner and ate a
full bag of microwave popcorn. *Not* the snack-sized bag, either. And it
tasted so good I ate another one. And then was too queasy to have dinner.
Forget getting some good veggie and fruit servings (I don't imagine poporn
or potato chips count as veggies) or some nice dairy -- it was salty snax
city.

So today I'm getting ready to cut the grass again and I reach into the dirty
clothes pile and pull out that raggedy pair of jeans. And I can barely
fasten the snap, forget about the zipper. A week ago they were loose and
now I can't even get them fastened! How much water weight had all that
sodium put on me? And maybe it's not all water! All my hard work and I've
put on who knows how many nasty pounds in just three days.

I'm getting really upset, I'm practically in tears, but the grass still
needs cutting so I start searching through the pile for a pair of dirty
jeans.

And I find the pair I had worn last week while mowing! The pair that didn't
fit was one I didn't even bother to try on the week before because I knew
they'd be too small. There was nothing to do but laugh.

And a NSV -- I went to our local county fair today. It seems most of the
crowd is busy munching -- funnel cakes and elephant ears and ice cream and
ribs. I'm hungry and I have reason to celebrate -- my salsa took third
place and my raspberry jelly took second place. So what did I have? A
large glass of unsweetened ice tea. I told myself that I had enough
flexpoints left to get a treat, but nothing really appealed to me.
