| I don't suppose anyone noticed I was feeling decidedly unsteady on my feet, leastwise if they did they were too polite to mention it (or too squiffy themselves to notice!!!). It's true that the wonderful euphoric state of ketosis is a nice memory, but hardly "real life", and my kidneys and other organs will doubtlessly thank me for the change!
Visitors for the whole weekend is certainly hard work when you work all week... let's hope someone comes to help you in the kitchen! I would, but so many just sit and wait for their meals. I've even heard from friends that some people who come to stay, because they live in a holiday area, seem to consider themselves "on holiday" while at their house! Charming! Do you plan meals in advance?
I must admit that I'm not a natural hostess, and I find it all very stressful and hard work... our family decided to have a different Christmas this coming year and all do our own thing, which suits me perfectly as R and I seemed to spend so much of our holiday either in the supermarket or in the kitchen last year! Then, believe it or not, my sister has asked whether she (vegetarian) and her husband can come to US in the country this Christmas... err NOOOO. I'm having a year off too! I politely (I hope) told her that they'd be welcome at any time of the year EXCEPT Christmas! That we were having a quiet turkey meal and eating leftovers all week - guaranteed to put her off as a vegetarian!!!
Putting a zip in? Gosh - I remember doing that at school! Nightmare stuff!
