    • Interests

      Spending time with my hubby, daughter and son. Going to gym at least 4 times a week, it helps me so much. Crazy about any really good comedy, laughing is so good for the soul, , enjoy cooking and trying new dishes at home, trying making it low cal i.e. greek yoghurt instead of creme fraiche, grilling instead of frying and baste our meat or veg with olive oil, and use loads of freshly chopped herbs from my herb garden etc.I also love sketching, reading and our pets they give so much unconditional love.

      Thanks, Preppy, for the journal comments. I really appreciate that you stopped by. I'm trying to deal as gracefully as possible with my PMDD this month, but it's not easy. It's interesting that you also sometimes get a month that's easier -- but, goodness, the bill sure comes due the next month, doesn't it? Anyway, thanks again -- and I'm always glad to provide whatever support I can as you deal with the PMS demons, too.
