At exactly 10:33 AM yesterday, approximately 5 1/2 hours after I wrote my last post, I thoroughly enjoyed a refreshing Coca Cola with pellet ice and a straw.
i just found your blog through cjane and i love you, too, like the poster before me ... i, too, have that coke habit, NOT DIET COKE, just plain ol coke-ee-cola ... love, love, love it ... i gave it up for a time when we first joined the church in 74 (and someone's kid who i was babysitting said, *YOU DRINK COKE???? NOOOOO!!!) so, i quit cold turkey, as they say!
then i moved to washington dc in 2003 for a year and took up with it again, coke and some *far out* folks ... moved back west, got married again and have corrupted my hubs with coke, too ... WE love it ...
thank you so much for your post; i love caffeine, need the lift, and coke fills the bill much better than a cup o cocoa!
mine, too, has to have ice, but it's plain, old freezer square ice and i drink it out of what my hubs calles my *WT cup* ... it's a large-mouth, pint canning jar ...
again, thanks for the awesome post ... i will have to check out the rest of em!
I just found your blog through cjane and have really enjoyed the post about your daughter and prom, so I started reading back. I can really identify with the Coke struggle. I love Coke!!! but my problem is that I have acid reflux and caffeine makes it a lot worse. I switched to caffeine free Coke and love it. It tastes the same, but I don't get the acid reflux problems. Every once in a while I have a regular Coke (restaurants, friends' homes, etc.), and as long as I don't go overboard I'm OK. Good luck!
I've been a mother for 18 years. I've been married for 20. I'm constantly negotiating myself out of difficult situations in order to save myself from collateral damage. I'm the one who will suffer the most if I don't negotiate carefully. The trick, I've learned over the past 18 years, is in the give and take. Mostly in your willingness to surrender more give and take less.
Cheers!
ReplyDeleteSuze, I already love you. My hubs is bringing me a soda RIGHT NOW cuz I was trying not to have it in the house. MMMM, yeah.
