Back from a short vacation with the family. I see that going on Sunday/Monday.....not nearly as many people are drinking. On this particular trip.....we seemed to run into ALOT if people from Ireland. Many were not drinking....those that were....not nearly as much as the "stereotype" would have one believe.

LillyE....I have used all kinds of excuses...when someone questions me. For the most part...nobody cares that I am not drinking. But, I will say what works the best...is to say that I am getting healthy and working out. If I drink.....my workout suffers. For those who workout....relate. For those who don't workout....they usually don't say anything.

Kuya....my sleep was all off being out of town. Sleeping with one of your kids....kills it...I swear I was up all night! I am sleeping in tomorrow....and the next day to get my body set back up. I am off work the rest of the week....still gotta work though

Det...I did have a question on the paleo diet....I only scanned it. But, it seemed to dissuade you from grains.....but, I know you love quinoa. Is this allowed.....I think I should just get the book Food powers the body....and I like it when I have something to eat....and feel like taking on the world vs. sitting on the couch......one of the reasons I am now addicted to quinoa. It makes me feel good.

The last couple of days....I ate everything barbarqued under the sun. My body wants to kills me. If I eat like crap, I feel like crap!

I always thought that Mick was undercover....CIA Something real cool like that

Hello there, fabbers,

I must say I have missed you. I had 2 super busy weeks but resolved everything hanging over my head so I am going to take it a bit easier. Travel has been a killer and hooray … the next 2 weeks I am staying put.

I had to go through a lot of unpleasantness (litigation from the person I recently fired) – she started a personal attack towards me to my superiors in Vienna. It was nice to see how they took my side and supported me but on a personal level it was kind of hard to take. Serenity now, more than ever!

Gaba helped, also loads of exercise and fresh air. Since I spent most of my time in front of the ‘puter or locked away in conference rooms I really did not want anymore screen time in my down time ( so no TV, internet shopping or posting …) I am eating less and less and hardly drinking any coffee (ha .. no weight loss as yet).

So have a great day, fabbies!!!

Helloooo

Glaciers, mountains and jumping off buildings. Yes we had a good long weekend. I'll have a couple of pictures (Maybe a video teehee). Man this country is beautiful! I've been from one end to the other and the best part are the differences.

Det - I got my hands on The Complete Idiot's guide to eating paleo. It's got some interesting recipes along with what looks like some condensed info. My mind has been racing lately and I'm afraid that I can only handle new information in point form right now. When I'm ready to you suggest Wolf's book over anyone else's? I did see your posts here and will go back and save them.

PPQ - was it you or KY who asked about the blood typing? I have not - apparently you have to get the order from a doctor. Hey, I hate the holiday season too. I'm always alone as the only family around belong to the ex., this year I'm signed up for a 16 km hike on boxing day . Meetup.com has a group for everyone.

I will do my best to check in nightly - catching up is draining. I really have to focus on getting ready for my AGM in November and the two courses I signed up for are quickly getting away from me. What ever possessed me to take a organizational management and a palliative care course at the same time as I have to do a year end? Guess I won't have time to drink now will I? :H

Congrats to everyone who has made it here today.

KY - :l. Just because

CanTooing off to bed.
