Help please?

Well it has been 11 days, 12 hours, and 34 minutes since Joel's surgery started and it is time to come clean with my addictions:

- Pepsi: I am grumpy without, funny with. I am afraid this may become the substance that sustains our marriage. I am planning to start drinking caffeine-free to ween myself.

- Two Iphones: After "manning" two iphones for four days, I now look longingly at Joel's phone as he uses his.  I could get so much more done with two!

- Sleeping by myself: I only loved this for one night.  I sleep much better with him laying beside me. (blah!)

- Other people's cooking: I am not sure if people are pulling out all their "good" stuff for us, but I have gained 5 pounds because I can't get enough!!

- Blogging: I am sure you understand this if you have been reading my 36 other mindlessly idiotic postings.

- Well-rested-Joel: He is funny, fun to be with, and most of the time in a good mood.  Plus he can't drive so he is always around for my entertainment.

- Chocolate: Do you know they put all the Easter candy on clearance after Easter? Bad news!!!  Maybe another reason I have gained 5 pounds. Have you ever noticed, eating chocolate is much faster than working out?

Ok, I have come clean.  Admitting you have a problem is the first step, right?

Now for Joel's new addictions:

- Watching weird shows on Netflix (Twin Peaks, Pushing Daisies, The Pixar Story, National Geographic special on death and when do we really die): He is watching all those shows that he has always wanted to watch but never had time.

- Napping: VERY GOOD FOR HEALING!!!

- My driving: He loves riding in the car and giving me advice. "turn here," "go that way," etc.  He is addiction, my nightmare.

- Strawberry Special K: Joel loves this cereal and Jonah and Elijah keep finishing it before he gets out of bed.  We are stopping at Costco tomorrow.  Costco always helps with quantity issues.

- Denver Nuggets Basketball: this addiction was cut short by bad post season coaching.  Sorry George Karl, it had to be said.

Please let us know if you have any advice on how to kick our "new" bad habits.
