With so much food available you need not cook at home weekdays, which can free up time to sew once you settle in to the job. Now that's a real perk.<br />Miss your posts (no pressure!).

I must say that I am one part jealous of your exciting transition and an equal part glad that I just get to read about it rather than experience it.

When you mentioned the food on cruises, I like to remember I generally lose weight on a cruise...I lost five pounds on my last cruise...it's all about choices, and anyway I owe it to you because you are the one who first told us about ETL. So you see, you are giving on many more venues than you know.Miasewshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07597551802534518767noreply@blogger.com
