This week, the challenge is to get rid of a bad habit for a week (or, at least, try).
If you know me personally, you know I can have a bit of a...potty mouth... Since Lilly picks up and repeats everything, I have been trying really hard not to say naughty words around her. Well, I know that if I use them when she isn't around, they slip out when she is around, so I just need to rid myself of them once and for all. Besides, cussing is really unattractive... :( How am I going to do this? I know it is lame, but some quarters in the "swear jar" might break me of this habit! I'm hoping that if I see how many coins I have in there, I will realize just how much I say it and maybe I will make myself more aware.

What words qualify? Obviously, the big three: F*#@, S*!%, B*$^&. In fact, if I use the effenheimer, that is an automatic four quarters in the jar. The s-word will cost me three quarters. If I call anyone a beeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee-otch...well, that will make me owe two quarters. A$$ and H€££ will each set me back 25¢. Am I missing any big ones?
Also, I’m hoping that word-replacement will help. Perhaps, Fricklefrack, Sugar, and Beach will help me through…
So, what is your bad habit? And how are you going to get rid of it?
XOXO
