    @chicbuc Doesn't it feel great when me make such a healthy decision and barely have to think about it!
    I have days when I struggle to fight cravings for an hour or more and end up caving in and going to the store. Other days (like that last 3 in a row) I barely think about wine and, when I do, the thoughts are basically "Hmm, I'm not even thinking about buying some wine, I wonder why that is?" I still haven't given myself an answer to that question, but I'm glad I'm having more and more days with it.

    @globalhiker Yikes, a spinal fusion does not sound fun. I hope the procedure gets done quickly and as painlessly as possible, and will keep you and your husband in my thoughts. I know that you already know this, but a prosecco of any temperature or size is not going to change the situation, or relieve your bonkers state. Happy to hear you pulled yourself back to reality. 💕 hugs

    @Michieb125 Sounds like you're having a great time glamping - unplanned extra nights anywhere are always such a special treat to ourselves and our loved ones.
    I'm always amazed at your LA goals and how you're able to follow or adjust as needed (I have more of an all-or-nothing mindset, LOL).
    I'm also very grateful that I found this space to share, vent or just report/track.

    @itlaydee your sister’s diagnosis is not nearly as bad as I was expecting. Stage 0 is a good stage, all things considered. So glad they caught it early, and that she understood what is involved. But you still have a road ahead of you.

    Meanwhile, sorry to hear the MRI contrast stuff made you queasy. Hope you feel better now.

    Thinking of you both.


    @NonnieDoiron I can only imagine what you went through with your son going through all those treatments. So glad he came through and has remained cancer free.

    @globalhiker hope the surgery gets scheduled soon, I hate the thought of your hubby being in so much pain. The fusion should make him feel so much better.


    Only half a glass of wine tonight. I did better this past weekend on the boat… until Sunday. Time to reset.

    @NonnieDoiron ugh what a day! The pointless meetings that can be handled in 3 minutes and drag on for half an hour. Time to re-read the old Dilbert comics for some commiseration! Hope your discussion with your husband goes well, it’s never cool to be harsh with your kids.


    @LittleSurferGirl7 what is the treatment for the retina? Did the hemorrhage get re-absorbed or is it still there messing with your retina? Sorry to hear it wasn’t better news.

    @LittleSurferGirl7 Having worked for an ophthalmologist and an optometrist, I just wanted to say that your vision is actually pretty good in your good eye and not terrible in your "bad" eye. If you're diabetic make sure you have your blood sugar well controlled and that will help. Try not to fret, and take care of yourself.

    @LittleSurferGirl7 I’m normally honest about my drinking on the doctor’s forms. Honestly, my doctors have never said anything to me about it. The only time I’ve had a doctor say anything it was my kids’ pediatrician and she asked me what I drank.🤷🏻‍♀️
