There are many phobias:
Claustrophobia - fear of closed in spaces
Agoraphobia - the fear of wide open spaces
triskadekaphobia- the fear of the number 13
acrophobia - the fear of heights
sucrophobia - My Mom's fear of running out of sugar. Wow...Her first day in the house I had 8 pounds of sugar. Now granted we had Christmas and made candy...But by her second day she was asking about the sugar par.
A couple of days ago she walked to the country store to buy a 5 pound bag of sugar. I came home from work and there is a big bag of sugar...????? We still had 2 pounds and she was worried about running out...SUCROPHOBIA. She has only left the house once in the last three days and it was to get sugar?
I think I am flagged at my Primary Care Doctor...I stopped by today to ask for some help with insurance stuff...I was in talking to the doctor in 10 minutes without an appointment. This has happened the last couple of times. Two medical things I have learned:
1. If you go to the ER and say you are having chest pain they will get you in right away.
2. Go to you doctors office while you have a brain tumor and you get in right away without an appointment.
Teresa and I have been doing a good job running. Teresa got a Garmin for Christmas and it is humbling to see how we are really running. 12 minute miles and 2.1miles...yikes. The other humbling thing about our run tonight was we were running downtown and I felt like we were cruising, I had the music going...zipping past people...and I look in the windows next to me and I see a big fat guy doing 12 minute miles. I feels good but we have some work to do.
I am getting nervous about Tuesday. Have a good weekend.

Sous chef? More like pearl diver. aka dishwasher. My Mother told me sugar is a staple and I just want to make sure we have all the neccesary staples. No phobia. I've been here for almost 2 weeks now and I have to tell you, Tony is amazing. He lifts my spirit everyday. He also checks his blood pressure everyday. Just yesterday I saw him chiecking it while eating a big piece of toffee in his mouth.
How many really bad desserts have been made?
Like ricotta cheesecake, divinity, chocolate pudding cake, or banana vanilla waffer pudding. Ugggg.
Yeah, whats up with that banana vanilla waffer pudding thing? I like salt and so does my mom.
dont forget about filipino desserts. Each recipe requires at least 55 pounds of sugar.
Thats the only reason why Tony and I get along so well!
sorry lyn, black people got filipino people beat, we use 100 pounds of sugar in our RED kool-aid.
