2 for 1

Hello, my name is Lindsey.

And I have a problem.


I am a scarf hoarder. 27 at my last count.

I had grand plans for the #purge11 challenge. I have plenty of things kicking around that are completely useless. Like my hairbrush, for example. I have a pixie cut. I haven't used my hairbrush in approximately two years. I did throw it away, actually, but I didn't count it toward my 11.

Considering the surplus, I opted to donate 11 scarves. It was tough, but I kept a few for spring, a few for fall and a handful of warm, wintery ones. Now they all fit properly on my scarf hanger. From now on, when one comes in, one goes out.

I really think we should do #purge11 once a month.

Then Allie, being all sneaky like, challenged me to make out with my husband. Please don't judge the state of my marriage by the fact that someone who knows us well felt compelled to challenge us to be affectionate to one another. The fact is, with two small kids, full-time jobs, long commutes, a home to look after and plenty of responsibilities, it's hard to find time to gaze lovingly into each others eyes as much as we once did.

In the interest of keeping this blog PG rated, I completed this challenge, and I'm happy that I did. This is another one of those challenges that really needs to be on the ol' to do list regularly. After all, it's just like riding a bike. Riding. Get it? Hahahahahahahaha. Man, I'm funny.

OK, girl, you're up! Since we're talking about get-fit goals lately, I challenge you to add YOUR lunches to part of next week's meal plan. Come up with some great protein and fibre rich snack options and when you're packing the family's lunches, be sure to pack your own -- one for each of the five work days next week. It's easier said than done for mamas to put themselves first occasionally -- now's your chance!
