What's a lemon?
Our first round of business this month has been identifying our "lemons". You know, those activities that we put off doing for a million and one reasons.
Lemons fall under many categories: things we Have to do, Need to do, Should do and even Want to do BUT don't.
I talked to the kids about it over a snack of sweets one day (cuz I'm no dummy). Our conversation triggered a memory, a tell for some of their lemons.
It's the ole answer a question with a question....
"Ethan, did you make your bed?"
"Um, what's a bed?"
"Reese, did you practice your flute?"
(Pause)
"What's a flute?"
"Are we doing homework?"
(In unison, without missing a beat)
"What's a homework???"
You see? Lemons, lemons, lemons!
I asked David about how he handles lemons.
We started talking about David but honestly, I don't know what happen because when the conversation was over, it was all about me. I lost the conversation but not how David deals with lemons...total deflection and avoidance.
And me? I found my lemons on the bottom of my to do list. My lemons make the list, again and again, but never seem to get done....not exactly a TO DO List!
So, how about you? What lemons are lurking in your day to day to day to day...?

lemonheads
This weekend we had our first "bite" of lemons....
Lemonheads were easy...
Lemons slices were harder...
Reese talked a good game but then lost "it" laughing...notice the drops on her sleeve.
Cheater, cheater, lemon eater...David coated his lemon with sugar.
