Boy, I’ve really been writing less since I started sweeping!

I’ve thought of a new diet idea as a last-ditch effort to maintain my weight if not lose it. If this doesn’t work, then I’ll just have to accept gaining a pound a week if I don’t want to be hungry most of the time. The plan is to start a fruit diet beginning on Sunday. The reason I thought having mostly fruit would do it is that it’s the next best thing with any real substance to it that isn’t as loaded in calories as most meats, pasta and starchy foods are. If I were to have mostly vegetables or hardly eat at all, then I couldn’t do it. I also like most fruits, so that helps.

PCH is pushing stuff on me now. Supposedly I ordered this new air freshener where you stick wooden reeds in a bottle of oil that’s supposed to last for months. It’s not very strong, although Tom thinks it is, but I like it nonetheless. It’s in the bathroom. It smells like it may be vanilla which is a mild scent. Tom suggested he pay for it because it may prompt them to send other smelly offers. I agree but will enclose a note telling them to verify all “orders” with me first. It’s better than the magazines that get pushed on me.

The shoes turned out to be a bust because that extra half-inch really did make a difference after all. It pushed the mannequin forward, and I swear her right foot is bigger than the other cuz it wouldn’t set down all the way into the shoe. It’s the other way around with the other mannequin. Her left foot’s bigger. At least they were free and will be easy enough to sell on eBay.
