Today is the day I've been waiting for since February 16. I gave up chocolate for Lent (as I do every year) and today is the end of Lent. I have Girl Scout Thin Mints and Samoas and a myriad of mini chocolate bunnies and eggs to celebrate.* Unfortunately, I went to the endodontist on Thursday and have stitches over the tooth they restored. My mouth is still misshapen; it's hard to eat; and the antibiotics I was given make me queasy. I don't feel like eating anything.
I know this is not all that important in the grand scheme of things, but it sure is a disappointment to me.
* I bought five bags of chocolate Easter candy to take over to a family gathering that I had to bow out of. I just don't feel up to it.
But I sincerely wish everyone here a great day! I am so grateful for my DU family. I really feel at home here.

(2,780 posts)As the day goes on, I find myself wanting that chocolate more and more. I just might have to force myself to eat a mini bunny or two and let the chips fall where they may!
