Confessions of a shopaholic
I need help. I mean REAL help. I need a 12 step program. I need to cancel my Sunday paper and throw away the grocery store ads before I even open them. It's just that when I see them in the ads "On Sale" and I happen to have coupons for them, I buy them. Lots of them. I mean, really, LOTS of them. It's the thrill of how cheap I can get them. We can't even eat anywhere close to what I buy. I don't even like most of them. But I buy them anyway. The ones I do like I REALLY like. And a couple I actually cook with. I will be giving LOTS away as gag Christmas gifts. It's a disease. It's a silly disease, but a disease none the less. I think it stems from us kids not having them around when we were growing up. Mom had them, but they were yucky ones. Yes, I am speaking of boxes of cereal. I bought 24 more tonight. I already had about that many, not including the additional 10 I had set aside for Christmas gifts.

It's OK. It's called Shop, Save, and Share. Take them to the local food pantry. You saved ridiculous amounts of money on boxes of cereal - so pass that savings onto someone else that may really need it.
I'm wiping the tears from eyes as I write this. I haven't laughed so hard in a long time. I remember those wonderful, healthy boxes of "cereal" we had growing up. Could be why I still avoid eating it. But you, dear sister, I think you need a 12 step program and some very intensive therapy!
I think you BOTH (and I don't mean "The Mrs.") are disgraceful, disrepectful and delusional. You really need to start taking responsibility for your own actions, grow up, and quit blaming your sainted mother.
I love cereal, I could eat it every meal. So I wouldn't mind your disease!
