Abstain
October 3rd, 2008
Both Nicky and I have things we are personally concentrating on in our efforts to be thrifty and happy. Mine is to renounce snacks and fizzy drinks when I am out.
Somewhere, many years ago now I suspect, I got into the habit of a Coke here, a chocolate bar there, and perhaps a doughnut or a thick-shake on the way home.
Since I am not good at moderation, I am just giving such things up. This is not the complete end to my sweet tooth. I’ll still have sweet things from the supermarket at home, perhaps I’ll give up that vice some other day.
Lesson for the day – know when to sidestep a good thing.
