Lent is Coming


Yes my friends, Lent will be upon us in three weeks.  Wait, three weeks?  POOP! I don't have much time.   I am still not sure what I want to give up.  Since I started participating in Lent, I have always given up the same things.  Beef, Pork, Soda, Dining out, and Junk Food.  Once I gave up sex (including masturbation and porn); It was horrible.

I rarely eat pork these days. Mostly bacon and that's only once or twice a month.  We eat beef more now and less chicken.  Dining out isn't like it used to be.  I rarely eat fast food (though Samantha and I ate McDonalds twice last week).  Junk food and soda are still high on my list of things I eat in excess.  Maybe I should give up Bad Carbs.   Junk food and soda are part of the bad carb family, so I think it makes sense, yes?  I was also thinking about doing the Daniel Fast, but you can't drink tea.  Then there was the no processed food idea as well.  I think the no bad carb idea may be best.  It combines the bad carb and processed food together.  I still have three weeks to get ideas, so if you have one, let me know.  

I want to do something a bit different this year on top of my blogging daily about Lent.  I want to do a writing exercise.  I need 40 questions or topics to write about.  I'm looking for topics that will be thought provoking, emotional, and give me an opportunity to reflect on past experiences and really look into myself.  If you have a topic you would like me to write about or a question you would like me to answer.  Send them my way.  If I don't get 40 that's okay.  I would like as many as I can get.


That's all for now.  Good night and sweet dreams.

Your Friend,

Lisa
