Don't tempt me with that

I haven't drank a pop, soda, etc. for over two years. I have never thought of actually going back to drinking it. I was tempted to yesterday.

My husband was drinking a cold Sprite. I asked to smell it. He gave me the bottle and it smelled so delicious. He told me to have a sip. I said no. He said that I have enough self control to only have one sip. I said no again.

Later, while he was at work I was thirsty. I opened the refrigerator and saw the bottle of Sprite. I grabbed it and twisted off the cap. I kept thinking that I have enough self control for one drink. I had the bottle up to my lips, but I couldn't do it. I knew if I had this one drink it would be over for me. All of the hard work of giving it up. Living without it. It would be over. I twisted the top back on the bottle and put it back in the fridge. So I found the next best thing to quench my thirst: Smirnoff Wild Grape.

PS: Happy Wedding day Krista!
