I am getting hooked on diet cokes at bingo now. My hubby Tom drank them each day and I thought he was crazy for it cause I did not seem to like them so much. Took a small glass once in a while, but now at Bingo cannot get enough of it. It is addicting now.

I like cherries too in everything. I do drink maybe one soft drink a day and let that be that. But having low blood sugar I usually get my sugar fix. Getting out and walking helps a lot and does not affect the shoulder right now.
