A Note to Myself

Dear Shannon,
From now on do NOT store your prescription nasal spray in the same cabinet with the Air Wick plug-in refills. Do not do this because they look amazingly similar in the early morning hours and you might accidentally pick up the Air Wick refill and try to squirt it up your nose.
And that would be nasty.
Very nasty.
Love,
Shannon

A Note to Myself
The next time you go to get your eyebrows waxed, DO NOT- I repeat DO NOT let the girl named Lisa wax them.
Because if you do, she'll think they aren't arched enough and for the first time EVER in your life you'll have very little eyebrows.
She's a sweet girl, but she's NOT the wax girl for you. Seriously.
Love,
Me
PS And the next time you decide to trim your own bangs..........DON'T do it. DON'T. Because you will be sorry. VERY sorry.

A Note to Myself
Dear Shannon,
If you decide at your oldish age to take up a new sport like tennis and begin taking lessons you had better invest in some Ben-Gay and some Advil.
Because after spending an hour hitting forehands, backhands, and learning to serve, you will be sore.
VERY VERY VERY sore.
So sore that your arms will feel like they are about to fall off when you do something as simple as try to put a shirt on.
And as a bonus your family will laugh at you.
Often and loudly.
Especially when they say they say that you look like a duck when you are concentrating on playing tennis.
Quack quack quack.
Love,
Shannon

A Note to Myself
The next time you get the bright idea to eat a bunch of yummy sugar free, fat free, low calorie meringue cookies READ THE FINE PRINT ON THE BOX.


Because if you do and you see something that says:
EXCESSIVE CONSUMPTION MAY HAVE A LAXATIVE EFFECT
they are NOT NOT NOT kidding.
And FYI......the word MAY really should be replaced with ABSOLUTELY WILL.
Remember, Mama always said...............
If something seems too good to be true, it probably is.
Love,
Shannon
PS Just lay off the cookies altogether you ding dong- your 20th high school reunion is in only 37 days.

A Note to Myself
Dear Shannon,
The next time you decide that it would be a fabulous idea to eat not one, but TWO of the yummy Nature's Grain Carb Check bagels (normal sized bagels for only 150 calories and 2 WW points)- with 19 grams of FIBER in EACH ONE, in the same day, because you had not eaten all day and they are good and filling......................STOP and think about what eating 150% of the recommended daily amount of fiber will do to you.
And then just say NO.
Or at least stay HOME and FAR away from other people.
Or you will embarrass the heck out of yourself.
And be miserable.
VERY miserable.
Duh.
