We Are a Divided Household

We are a divided house.  No, not on shaky ground marriage or relationship wise, we are totally divided on our choice of diet sodas.  I've been a Diet Coke gal since the inception of the product.  Roy has been wishy washy on his choice even giving them up years at a time, but this year he discovered caffeine free Diet Pepsi.  He loves it!  Seems like we have a lot of 6 packs of diet drinks to store.  That is one thing we have disliked about our condo, the total lack of storage.  We've had to become quite inventive and at times we are down right lazy when it comes to storing diet drinks bought on sale.  We are trying to cut back on drinking so many Diet Cokes and Pepsi's.  You may be thinking, is this all that is going on in life?  Have you nothing blog worthy other than drink choices?  Well, yes there is a whole lot going on and most of it would bore you to tears.  It's just that Diet Coke is now the number two choice of sodas passing Pepsi.  Fondly, I remember days of yester year when I was a sponsor at Camp Houston.  Many of us went to Alto Frio ahead of the campers to get it Camp Houston ready.  A bunch of us girls were sitting around in the main cabin talking about the times of our best Diet Coke we ever drank.  Each of us who were Diet Coke aficionados had multiple stories about the times of the best Diet Coke.  Years ago when we went to Atlanta, I bought a case of Diet Cokes in glass bottles.  Nothing like a cold, iced glass bottled Diet Coke on a hot summer day.  Finally Peggy broke in on our stories as we waxed poetic about our favorite drink.  Peggy is a regular Coke drinker, doesn't drink the diet and she let us know she has never, ever had a conversation with anyone about the best Coca Cola in her life.  She was mystified how we could go on and on and relate in great detail, our best Diet Coke.  Guess that is something that only the partakers of Diet Coke do.  Her interruption didn't stop our stories, if anything our sacred Diet Coke memories increased.


We have finished with our preconstruction meeting and only made a few minor changes.  We are waiting on pricing of stamped concrete and slate.  In the middle of the night I remembered we had discussed adding a door to our walk in closet at the design center but we never discussed that item with our builder.  We met Adam on Wednesday and we really like him.  The foundation should be poured in about two weeks.  On with adventure! 


Last night I met a friend for dinner and we ate at the Nord.  It is triple point time and I came out of the store with only two pairs of earrings from BP.  If you shop the Nord you know the earrings in BP are pretty darn cheap.  The thought of moving more clothes is enough to daunt triple reward points.  Besides when I was losing weight last year I bought more clothes than I needed.  So those items are new to me this year and will suffice as new clothes.  Well, I will come clean, I have bought some Flax items that were on sale at Whole Earth Provision. 

Think I will go open a Diet Coke and begin tackling my next "moving" project.  Have a happy and blessed Friday!
