LOST: my sparkle


So I decided it was time to break up with Diet Coke. We've had a long running 'on again, off again' relationship. And though we've had some good times over the years, I decided that overall, it just wasn't a healthy relationship and we needed some time apart. I was too needy and dependant and the time has come to be able to stand on my own. I'm not going to lie to you - it didn't end amicably. It has been almost 3 weeks and everyday I still want one (or 4) as I drag through the day. I'm hoping in time that we can meet "as common and indifferent acquaintances".

I made the break when I joined the Church and I was fortunate that a NEW citrus drink came out at the same time - grapefruit!! and I made the switch to that, it was hard because I liked Coca Cola and now I can't stand any soda drink!!!
Good Luck!!!
Love, Mum
