Your prompt for #JusJoJan the 31st and Stream of Consciousness Saturday is: “scratch an itch.” Use it any way you’d like. To join in the fun click HERE.
I was thinking about taking this prompt literally and wondering out loud how I would cope with scratching an itch if Hubby wasn't around. You know the one, that point on your back that you just can't quite reach no matter how much you contort yourself.
But of course scratching an itch is also about satisfying a craving. I've been good this week and not given in to the temptation of chocolate that's in the house. Mainly because I've started taking a collagen supplement that is chocolate flavoured and I'm mixing it with warm milk. It actually tastes really nice but I'm just a bit wary of having a migraine induced chocolate overload so I haven't scratched that itch.
I also went to the library to return a book, one that I hadn't even read, and came away with no new books despite browsing the "New In" book shelf where several books caught my eye. But I have enough books on my TBR pile to probably last me a year so I really don't need to scratch that itch either.
So now, is it just me, or does writing about this topic create an itch in that impossible to reach place? Thankfully Hubby is in the house so I will get my itch scratched!
Enjoy the rest of the weekend all.
I have a back scratcher that I use often to scratch that itch I can't reach! As for the "other" kind of itch scratching, I don't have much will power when I get an itch for sweet or salty! Have a good rest of the weekend, Wendy!
ReplyDeleteThanks Terri. I don't have an actual back scratcher but I often improvise lol
DeleteI try not to have any sweet things in the house as I am so weak I can't resist that'itch'.
ReplyDeleteThat's what I should do too.
DeleteI make good use of the door frames if I have an itch I can't scratch. hehehe
ReplyDeleteGood on you resisting the chocolate and good luck with the collagen supplement.
