Lent sacrifice?

It's about bettering yourself as a person. There's nothing silly about that. I don't even look at it in a religious way.

if that's the case they just better yourself. No reason to wait.
However i'm sure god is really happy for all the soda that's being given up :smile:
 
You see, you just need to build in exceptions along the way. As in "I'm giving up alcohol for Lent, with the exception of the Big 12 tourney. And if the Clones advance throughout the NCAA tournament."

We go to Vegas every year and of course it's not part of the Lent deal. so for us no alcohol except for the Vegas trip. That first night there we always seemed to get, uh, pretty... intoxicated!

Way to sacrifice, you're making baby Jesus cry.
 
Finally figured out what I'm giving up. Last year my daughter told me I should give up coffee - so I did. I just decided this morning that I will do that again but up the ante a little and give up M&M's as well. We have a dish of M&M's in the kitchen that I tend to gravitate toward whenever I get a bit peckish between meals.
