Drinking While Eating
My doc says not to so you don't wash away the food. That was a hard habit to break I drink a lot of water with my meals. I only sip now because if not careful it can get things stuck

Friends No More
Friends come in leaves, branches and roots. Leaves blow away there for a season. Branches can b there for years it takes a lot to break them, but they do brake. Roots are there and will be there a lifetime. Only you know what kind of friend this is to you. It the season was up keep stepping and let it go, but if you know in your heart she is more than that apologize to salvage the friendship. TRUE friends are hard to come by. Good luck
