~Ice Cream is Dangerous...~

Not just for your waistline, butt, thighs (whatever your personal demon is)...no it is also dangerous for your lips. Yes, lips... There is a story behind this of course.

We arrived home today from our trip home to our Moms'. Now I don't want to overshadow the time we had there, it was a good time. Lots and lots of hard work, but fun. Details to follow. Anyhow, we had a long drive home of course because we live in almost nowhere. I decided to sit in the back with Ethan because the trip down was not enjoyable. 6 hours of nonstop crying. I was ready to snap. So I got in the back with Ethan so I could keep him entertained. In the end, he didn't need much entertaining. I think he was just lonely. So I sat beside him and read a newspaper and the new O magazine. It was nice.

Anyhow, I decided that since I ate like crap the entire trip and that I was going to get back on track when I got home that I should go out with a bang. So we stopped in Whitecourt for a pee break and I grabbed a fudgesicle...well okay a double one. I was so excited. I know that's lame but it is true. I like ice cream, it just makes me sick... So I unwrap the fudgesicle and go to lick it and....sliump! My bottom lip got stuck to it. Yup, only me! My freaking lip was stuck. You know how kids stick their tongues to poles in the winter and it hurts like the dickens and won't come off. Yup that was me, on a fudgesicle. I tried pulling, wouldn't come off. I freaked out a bit and started telling Randy to help me. We were driving by then and were on the divided hiway. He started laughing his ass off. I didn't think it was very funny. He told me to just lick it. Ummmm dumass, my bottom lip was stuck...how is my tongue supposed to help? So after like 3 minutes of fruitless pulling and trying to figure it out, combined with tears (YES REAL TEARS) and a bit of laughter from me (and alot from Randy) it came off. It was traumatic. I may have to contact Nestle about that one and tell them that I need counselling. Sad, I know. I have the worst luck. On the high side, maybe this will keep me from eating ice cream for awhile and stay on track with my eating plan...

So we got home tonight. Tomorrow and for the next week and a half I will be watching my nephew Cole. I'm hoping we can have some fun together. Randy leaves on Tuesday for a few days to go to do a reno job. So it will be a busy week for us and we won't be back to our routine for awhile.

I will be home tomorrow night and will post some of the fun pics that I got from the last week. Trust me, there are more good stories to share!
