LETS EAT AND DRINK and be merry.

Happy super bowl day.. Does anyone have a special meal planned? I am making hot chicken wings and pumpkin bread. fruit salad and wine. Have fun. It should be a fun game.

lol.. no not really..not well to do... that was a bit of a joke..:-)
For a while , I was just a bit better off than i am now..
no safety codes in gambia.. just hope for the best..single storey makes it safer anyway..
My hubby's uncle is doing the build, we are now in weekly contact trying to pin him down..!
no mortgages there, that i know of.. people tend to buy the land and build bit by bit.. family compounds stay in the family for generations.. not all the moving about we have in the west..
when are you next on your work travels..?

Hello Beaththesysyem- hoping you are doing good. Next week will be the first travel of this 2012's. But the good thing is it will be in the US. You can still be able to travel back and forth the US and the Gambia which is telling me you're still in a very good health. Keep it up my dear!:)

ah... you have such great self control, Leeann..
If you don't drink nor smoke then .. do you have a vice?..
I seem to enjoy being moderately addicted to something..
food or smokes or alcohol..whatever.. something to look forward to..
perhaps i should analyse and stop!!
what do you reward yourself with...?
(For me, rewarding myself with a ciggy is a double edged sword.. its rewarding my mind but punishing my body..! I need to get the two more connected maybe....)

Actually i have a very addicted personality. I AT ONE TIME WAS A PRETTY HEAVY DRINKER, but once i got G.E.R.D.S disease i had to slow down on everything. Then once i lost the weight i kind of like it being off, so that gives me good reason to keep my died in control. I one time smoke i gave that up years ago, how ever i will have a smoke once in a very blue moon. I really do not have much choice on my drinking or eating fatty foods because i still have G.R.E.R.D.S disease. As long as you reward yourself once in a while you are just fine. If anything that is even good for you, just be careful and don't over do. How are you doing and how is your family? You seem to be a pretty busy lady. My husband had his first doctor appointment today after his surgery,it has been a week and one day.All is good. Thank God. WE ARE just both tired and been sleeping most of the day. Hope to read you soon, always enjoy doing so. God bless you.

Yes I suppose if the mind doesnt tell us to slow down, the body will do so eventually..and now you have keeping your health as an incentive, you will stick to your good intentions.. will be too painful not to, I guess..?
I am doing ok, and my family are well, thank goodness..Yes we are all so busy.. all work full time.. my sons are fine but have stresses of life, as we all do.. its hard when ones children are well grown up and we cannot control what goes on in their lives any more.. just have to be there with a listening ear, offer advice, help where we can..
It frustrates me that certain other people make life difficult, for me and particularly for my children.. its hard to accept I cant control that, but accept I must..
I am glad that your husband is on the mend, i'm sure you are both tired, from your respective illnesses and the stress and worry that must bring..
Yes you are right, we should make time to treat ourselves and have fun..
Last weekend i went paintballing with my sons and a few friends.. it was a bit scary (! lol) at first but great fun..and good to share that.
Do you have snow where you are..? It is threatening to do so, here..

Thank you Beatthesystem!- You sill plays tennis? Hmmm that is very good. I only play tennis in summers only cause it gets dark quick in the evening now and I get out of work a bit late everyday. I have a coworker who had smoked for more 40 years and so his wife. But they both have quit around about 10 years. He said at first it was hard, but their doctors advised them to quit since they found a tumor in one of his lungs. But he looks healthy now and gained weight ( i remember he used to be extremely thin before). I know it is hard to give it up but I think you can do it though :) Do you like coffee?

I was teasing you, i know you can't eat the spicy and the heavy foods now because it would be hard to digest and you don't want to feel painful again. I know I felt sorry for the guy who is the husband of the Victoria's Secret super model (i don't remember their names lol).

LOL. A cruise well do it. But you have one life enjoy it how ever you need to take care of yourself as well. I am sure you do. You will lose those pounds again, until you go on another cruise.
