just quit cold. gum only prolongs the physical addiction. kicking the mental addiction is a bit tougher. last time I did it (years ago), the one day, three day, one week, two week and 30-day marks were key. once I hit 30-days, I knew I had it kicked, more or less.
Just got to the point that the enjoyment of the vice wasn't worth the hassle or expense.
Hey everyone! Just thought I'd drop in and say hi...
Not that I have many, but the ones I still have I still enjoy, at least I enjoy them enough to keep.
For now at least.
I could use a beer...damn, that meeting was boring!

Nice to see you Blu
I've been making some of these this week because it's St. Patrick's month. It's an Irish Manhattan. I have my Irish flag up on the flagpole for the month as well

2 oz. Jameson Black Barrel
1 oz. Antica Formula Vermouth
1 shake Whiskey Barrel Bitters
1 Italian Sour Cherry with a little of the syrup.

Bah.... Irish! [laughs] Silver tongued devils you are! Now I see where you get it. I think we need a Scottish day so that I can celebrate my own heritage. Although I am trying to figure out what a Scottish Day would look like.
Let's see... St. Patrick's Day is about shamrocks and green, beer and pinching people. So a day celebrating Scotland would be what? Haggis, whiskey and sheep? [laughs]
Heeeeyyyy... now that is an interesting question for the night. I will admit that while I am American, I have a strong Scottish line running through my family line. Except for a little French/English on my paternal grandmother's side, everyone else was of Scottish descent.
So how about you guys? Care you share your family heritage?

wait... did I ask this before?![]()
I am of African (no idea what tribe or group), Scottish, and Native American (Cherokee/Creek) heritage.![]()



But the power! The POWER!!!!

Really diggin' the AV there Joy! Um, where do I sign up for that kiss??![]()
!That's certainly what drew me in! Lol!
Oh my...I'm quite the mishmash!
About half Irish - hence, red hair and green eyes and skin that burns to a crisp in 14.2 seconds of direct sunlight lol
The rest.....Czech, French, and Lakota Sioux. Dad was from South Dakota, mom's family immigrated from Ireland.
Kiss me! I'm Irish!!
Quite the interesting combination! That Scottish in there is a leetle bit odd! Lol!![]()



Hi blu
You made me smile thinking back to when I dragged hubby to dance lessons. We learned the fox trot, rumba, waltz and I forget what else. I do love being held in his arms as we dance around the room. Truthfully we butcher all of these dances but being together is what is most important to us. So I guess a nice slow dance like a fox trot where I get to hold my honey bunny.![]()
I am a bit sore today after going to a fitness class but other than that I am doing great thanks....how are you lady?
Happy Saturday to all! Just taking a quick break from cleaning and thought I would pop on.
Do you know what I miss? Dancing. It has been forever since I have been out on the dance floor and been led in a waltz or the foxtrot. *sigh*
So here is the cover for today... do you dance? And if so, what is your favorite style? Are you a Swing dancer? A sexy Salsa dancer? do you prefer the cha cha or maybe the you like to twirl around the floor to the Texas Two Step?
I am a Swing and Two Step kind of girl. Not sure what that says about me but there you go.
