I became a professional level drinker at the age of twelve. But one year ago, after a decidedly wet January, I had a chat with my FP who informed me my A1C had reached a nice fat round number. At that moment I decided to push back from the bar, lost thirty pounds, and discovered the joy of Kombucha (yes, it is fermented, but at .5 percent alcohol it’s a better option than Hendricks). Very quickly I felt like Superman and have no plans to exercise the elbow again.

What a tale! So happy for your ability to seize control. It ain’t easy! Feel free to drink any of the potations I mixed up. Zero alcohol, but some frogmen.

You can make it easy and acquire an illness that makes it impossible to drink like I did. No honor in that, though. 😁 The five year old in me ( okay, I admit it, I *am* the five year old on question!) especially likes the “Pissing in the Pool”-tail.

We all have our foibles, don’t we Jeannine? But you don’t have to invite me to your pool party this summer. I’m busy that day.

I don't have a pool, but I have a pond full of frogs and polliwogs... 😉

Although the margarita at Taco Stop was pretty good. Don't think it was January, either.
