Three Word Wednesday Post:

Demolish; verb: Pull or knock down; comprehensively refute; overwhelmingly defeat (informal); eat up food, rapidly (humorous). 

Resolution; noun: A firm decision to do or not to do something; a formal expression of opinion or intention agreed on by a legislative body, committee, or other formal meeting, typically after taking a vote; the action of solving a problem, dispute, or contentious matter.

Transform; verb: Make a thorough or dramatic change in the form, appearance, or character of; undergo such a change. 


As I stare at the goodies of Christmas
I make a resolution to transform
This older body and not eat as much
But still it beckons me
So I hide it in the cupboards
And tell family go ahead demolish
So there's less of me
To have to transform 
And more of them?

    The problem was taking it out of the cupboard in the first place. It is probably bad advice but just eat it all up now, feel guilty then do the penance.

    My wife and I have just spent the week 'wodging' through an enormous sirloin roast. Ate the last of it today. It won't have done us as much harm as the pizzas we have decided on for Saturday and Sunday.

    I finally had to throw away some candy left over from Easter that I had hidden on top of the fridge... replaced it with Christmas goodies.
