Southern Oregon Living: Today Was a 10...

Today Was a 10...

Today was a 10... a ten wrapper day that is!  Board Bored meetings will do that to me... and I've had my share of them lately.  There's always one stickler in the group (you know who you are) that gets this blondie's blood curdling.  Rather than do a complete weenie roast... I choose my battles wisely!  I break out the Hersheys and I get to work.  Some of my greatest inspiration comes to me when eating chocolate ;)

Melinda,

Oh do pray tell!

WHAT was it that made it a ten wrapper day?

Details, please!

Maybe after a day has passed and the angst has worn down.

Mel...so glad to know it was a 10 wrapper day for you....don't know that I can measure it in wrappers....but I'd have to say my day was a 10 also....measured in bliss and happiness! No chocolate but plenty of goodness. Maybe tomorrow will be a 10 wrapper day....I do like chocolate! Hope you are having a great week!

Mel, we share the same delight for chocolate!  In fact, I am eating chocolate as I type. Chocolate is my solution for everything.  The more wrappers, the better .... until I break out the scale of course.

Do you ever watch the show "Chase" with Kyra Segwick. She plays a Police Captain and when she gets stressed out she opens her bottom desk and eats a chocolate cupcake; like HoHos? Some days you just have to find the chocolate or ice cream to relax. Hope tomorrow is better.

If the 10 wrapper day was calorie free... I'd be all over it!

If I could eat chocolate today would have been strangle a realtor day with a chain of wrappers.....

Ha!  How funny that Kristin should comment about Kyra Sedgwick ....

Mel, this is one of my favorite blogs for its sheer cuteness!

Do I sound like I'm fudging?   ...hope not.

Mel, couldn't help but stop and visit (catchy title) and I knew instinctlively that it will be worth a smile.

Mel, A picture saves 100+ calories, but, who wants to eat a picture, when you can have chocolate? 

Posted by Richard Yates - Broker (Coldwell Banker Real Estate) 9 months ago

What are you fellow chocolate addicts doing up so late?  Especially my east coast chocoholic friends?  Bless your Hershey lovin' souls ;)

Richard... no calorie counting for this chicky!  Eat chocolate... shake a little Zumba!

My wife too has her secret stash of chocolate that the kids don't know about and there are days that she just wants to lock them outside and eat chocolate.

Oh that sounds so good. Too bad it's 12 miles to the grocery store. And oh - it wouldn't matter. The grocery store is closed this time of night.

Mel-I love this. Not the part about people upsetting you but you getting inspired instead of letting them get to you. You are a smart lady and a beautiful one inside and out and who doesn't love a KISS especially a CHOCOLATE one. YUMMY. I hope you got my e-mail after your caring e-mail. If not for some reason the answer was my next to the last blog. Have yourself a great Thursday. Smiling

Eating chocolate is better than letting some numb knuckle get the better of you. Today is a new day and will be better Mel!

Sweet post, really delicious, in fact.  Mel, now I know why your friends call you "The Closer."  :) Hope today is a little less challenging.

I love that you do this, just another part of the KS.  But what really helps the chocolate go down a little easier is a half glass of smooth red wine :)  Just sayin'  (LOVE YA)

Melinda- I didn't know that chocolate was reserved for those kinds of days!!!  This is a cute post.

Melinda, there must be something illegal in chocolate to have such an effect on all of us.  I grabbed one out of my stash last night too.  Hmmm must be a full moon!
