Hi Sillygirl and thanks for the encouragement. BUt I must confess that this weekend wasn't that great. Here is part of a post I sent to Floydgirl.

This weekend was brutal. The kids (times two) were full of energy until I got them to the park in the hot sun, then they wilted like little flowers and put on their Whiney hats. We chased the whines away with some cool drinks but that is where it went south for me.

I asked for a DIET Coke and kept on truckin.......got the kids settled in with their snacks and cool beverages and by then I was wiped out. Grabbed the so-called diet coke and BAM!!! that frothy, bubbly goodness hit my lips........something so familiar, effervescent, cascading down the ice cubes up to my lips and down the shoot it went. By this time I hear Homer Simpson's voice in my head "bubbley goodness, ahhh frothy, sugary goodness, more.. must have more, ahhh"

Well of course I wanted more, I was in a sugar coma because it was not, definitely not DIET coke!!! It was that substance I was addicted to for so long, REGULAR Coke. Yes my name is Free2B and I am a recovering Coke Addict. That evil, vile drink is everywhere, I can't escape it. Every country no matter how far away you are, has Coke. And it will find it's way to me. Like most addicts I am a creature of habit. I like my fix a certain way. Not out of a can mind you, not just a plain cold bottle will do, I like a nice glass of ice with that frothy, bubbley beverage swirling around. Ahhh frothy goodness, what was your question again??

Anyhow, so I fell off the wagon. (but I hopped back on) Sabotaged I tell you! It's my own fault, I am not supposed to have diet soda anyhow. So now you know. Maybe I should start my own chapter of Coke-aholics anonymous.

Your weekend sounded much better!!

Sorry about all the mis-spelling!

Cheers,
Free2B
