I've been drinking a lot of V8 juice lately. it's great. i've just discovered V8 hot & spicy juice which is also very good.
Holiday time once again and i don't really have any plans. Thinking of treking to sydney for a couple of days.... need to use mum's sewing machine and overlocker, visit nana and possibly pick up some cyanotype. oh, and spend time with the family i guess.
Everything is very wedding focused at the moment. kaia get's married in february and adam in september. i've been thinking about getting engaged just so i can get some cool presents, it's amazing how much stuff they've got. it doesn't end with the engagedment either...there's wedding presents to come and for kaia, kitchen tea presents - if she has one that is... and then housewarming presents.. plus a honeymoon. it makes me feel a bit sick really. sick or sad....can't really decide. i mean, there's so much celebration over adam and kaia finding people they want to spend the rest of their lives with. susan and mark being accepted into the family, included in family events, our parents talking about adam and susan or mark and kaia to their friends and being all proud. and then there's me. 'erin and her friend' I don't think that shows any pride or acceptance. if there was at least one bit of acceptance they would say 'erin and her girlfriend' and so far the only person that uses my girlfriend's name - from my family - is nana. when i said i might be coming to sydney nana asked 'is lisa coming with you?' . well i'd just like to say thanks nana. you're the best.
i wonder if i ever had a child would my parents use it's name or say 'erin and her child'
i wish jara was here. i miss that boy.

Your family is funny.
I miss living with you in Newcastle.
I need to get a rice cooker badly.
I've played so little frisbee the last few months.
And your Nana IS the best.

I switch from energy drinks too v8 and find that I have just as much energy and am more clear minded.
Posted by: Matt at February 6, 2005 10:30 AMI have recently started drinking V8 and I am obsessed with it! Lately I have been drinking about 24oz a day -as if my body can't get enough (don't worry, I go for the low sodium kind). But I was just wondering if anyone knew of any bad stuff that might happen from overloading on too much of the good stuff? Too much potassium can be bad; should I rein in my cravings?
