I have been contemplating the latest Crunchy Chicken challenges and keep going back and forth over which part, if any, I am going to participate in. Sigh - I feel so "wrong" for even thinking of not participating in them! UG! The rules clearly state no Halvesies; you go all the way or nothing. However, my brain thinks a minor tweak here and there is better than avoiding it altogether! My neighbors and school moms pretty much think I am crazy to contemplate any of these ideas ... one even said she had to buy something new every day! Reaks of hidden issues if you as me, but ....
So, here I sit, just two days away from the first day of May, (and a few days from my, gulp, 42nd birthday ... when did I get so old? I don't feel that age.) and I have not committed to anything. Yes, this is a huge commitment, but it something I wholeheartedly believe in, so what is keeping me from doing it? The lack of ease? The desire to just go with the flow? The lack of much true support in this endeavor? Some combination of all of these, I'd say.
No paper, with the exception of no TP, would be the easiest. Except Annika and her obsession with coloring and cutting printouts from the internet would be a major challenge. This particular challenge was not made for parents of preschoolers! I guess for that week we get out our white board and chalk board!
Well, more food for thought (but only if it is locally grown food, packaged in glass or cloth, that I bring home on my bicycle, and then do not need to refrigerate it, bc I have turned off my electricity!)
yea, I am insane for thinking about this. So, what week is best for this challenge, I ask myself. We'll just have to see!
