Satisfactory Saturday

Betty I can relate to that because my twins were born at 27 weeks and they were struggling for life everyday. I wasn't even allowed to touch them for a week. I just remember all the tubes and life support and being in a daze. I couldn't believe it was happening. Then I remember coming to terms with it and saying to myself that I had to be strong for them and damned with my own self. I couldn't let them see me weak because they would feed off of that. That was such a turning point for me.

I think that you are such a strong person and Kerri knows that. She is precisous and you are a great mom.

Beaches, you are a special mum too, It's really true what Mary says about special needs children having special parents.

Thes last few days i've actually been grateful to have a drink problem because without it I wouldn't have fabulous friends all over the world.

I am soooo happy to have you all in my life xx

Hello to all the muffins!

BB so glad you are feling better about the situation

Di, about the moderating, I also think is is important to think about how far apart you are drinking those glasses.

Yesterday I had as glass of wine while they did my hair, then one glass while out to dinner and while everyone had dessert, I had an after dinner drink of Sambuca with coffe beans (I love those after a good meal) . Anyway, I had three large glasses total yesterday but, they were spread out. Dinner with friends took 2 & 1/2 hours. To me, this is successful moderation.

Tonight, I have the fundraiser for a school for autistic children that my nephrew attends and although I will drink once there, I will not drink while getting ready. This was something I used to do. Anyway, pacing yourself and giving your body time to motabolize the alcohol is also a factor.

Sambuca with coffee beans. Wow, PP, you are so sophisticated.

MKR, you are so right. Crazy or brilliant. Probably crazy.

I just got back from "Princesses on Ice." This is something I have managed to miss until I became the grandmother of a girl. Her excitement brought tears to my eyes. 2 years for MWO. Congratulations to RJ! Think of all the good she's done in 2 short years.
