Don’t.
Don’t shop
when you are hungry.
Don’t reply
when you are angry.
Don’t decide
when you are sad.
Don’t miss the forest
when you are focused on the trees.
Cheers & Hugs,
Jodi

Do you know how many times I’ve gone shopping when I’m hungry and came home with absolute cr@p food, and then having nothing healthy to make for dinner? Would you like some fried pork skins with your popcorn? LOL. All very wise words… xo
