Aunt Julia the enabler

Notice my slovenly appearance in this photo–three days growth of beard, puffy face. Do you notice what is in the box? Aunt Julia sent us a birthday package with nice cards for all of us (and a nice little extra for each of the kids). That was just a cover for her enabling ways. She knew that Bryan was at his daughter Mari’s wedding, probably eating and gaining weight, so the pressure was off on the weight loss death match and my defenses were down. So Aunt Julia, in her normal, conniving, underhanded way, and because she knows Mom always liked me best, sent me a box chock full of Snickers. It was addressed to all of us, but I knew EXACTLY who it was for.  If you noticed a huge spike in the weight chart, you now know why.  Actually, it was a wonderful surprise.  Thanks for the care package Aunt Julia!
