... since I've had any soda.

Or bought junk from a vending machine. Only purchase was a bottle of water when I hadn't realized I had an empty bottle in the car I could have filled at the water fountain.

So how happy am I at this marvelous feat of self-control or what have you? Not terribly.

It does mean I only have to buy full sugar soda for the sugar soda imbibers. It means I can walk by vending machines. It should mean I'm somewhat ahead financially.

Otherwise, I'm still me. Who and whatever that is.


It's Saturday and we have new snow this first of March. Inches of it. Quite pretty in fact.

I've been to two Master Gardeners meetings in the last few days. After today's meeting I went to the library to edit and make changes in the Fair Book =- the open class listings for next July's fair. The library is freshly remodeled and is quite nice. Lots of windows to the east - all full of new snow.

I like the woman at the library. I suggested they buy a book one of the Master Gardeners has written. She took down the information graciously.


I've got to learn to be more careful at work. I'm making too many mistakes.

The only time I drink soda (or buy vending machine snacks) is when I am working. I am SO tempted by suggestion. You are constantly evolving. I feel so static.

I haven't had soda in about 30 years. Just lost my taste for it. Wish I'd lose my taste for all the other stuff that is bad for me!

Soda, Pop ...Coke...Pepsi...sugar free (lol) . We all get addicted I would say to a lot of things . Me, I can't remember the last "pop" or "soda" I had. But I have in the past fed at the altar of the vending machine. When I worked in Pueblo, on a yard extra or to fill in for an engineer, who took off the day. The Vending machine ..and those over preserved sausages,1% meat (snouts ears, undesirable cuts, tongue, Organ meats ?) and 99% preservatives, salt, and maybe salt..or SALT. WTF is Xanthan Gum? Yeah like a dog to its Vomit...the dumb ol Rail was there. Animal Crackers...yeah I like those too...LOL
I raise my hand and go to the head of the class of shame ....

Are you enjoying the master gardeners' meetings? Are they also informational? Good of you to recommend their book to the librarian. Is she new? Or the large woman (I always liked her)? Almost went there today myself. / Do you feel like you are making yourself healthier? I would. I'm trying to greatly reduce sugar and sweets because my triglycerides are really high. Also need to lose weight ---- again. Congratulations on your accomplishments. Wise moves.
