Sabes, cuando l...Gracias por tu comentario Jesús. <br /><br />Sabes, cuando llegué de Buenos Aires para estudiar aquí, venía de un país 'joven', y las iglesias europeas me causaron una profunda impresión, porque se veía y olía la historia, la interminable procesión de fieles desde la edad media que habían pasado por sus puertas. No soy una persona muy religiosa, lo que me interesaba era el ambiente, y como dices, ese elemento tétrico que me daba como un delicioso escalofrío. Y ahora a veces miro esta arquitectura colosal y se me ocurre que estos lugares fueron construídos en tiempos cuando había muchísima pobreza (algunos en Madrid y Londres por ejemplo), y se tendrían que haber usado los fondos para fines más dignos...<br /><br />CarolineLonicerahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13141723287143567146noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2360936507322491939.post-12790514931677131582010-06-15T22:13:47.770+01:002010-06-15T22:13:47.770+01:00What very kind wishes - thank you all so much!
...What very kind wishes - thank you all so much! <br /><br />Yes I know it's a journey, it just feels as though it's taking such a long time. These days I read the younger bandit bloggers (the men particularly) with their annoyance and self-intolerance when they don't lose the usual massive weekly number of kilos and it just makes me feel that I'm on a different planet. I know that one can't say "You're bloody lucky to be able to lose it so fast, just wait till you're my age"...it's a cliché and makes me appear old before my time, and the final cliché is that they don't want to listen anyway.<br /><br />(Sigh) I'm far too full of birthday cake and chocolate, so ignore me.<br /><br />Thanks for the visit Roo - I'm following your progress with great enjoyment. I remember your first posts before the op when you were having your last binges (which I relate to!) and what a long way you've come since then.<br /><br />I really appreciate the birthday messages, thank you again.<br /><br />CarolineLonicerahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13141723287143567146noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2360936507322491939.post-54903134931642367902010-06-15T17:59:34.028+01:002010-06-15T17:59:34.028+01:00Preciosas fotografías de Iglesias.

Right now it is still the 14th so still have a few hours here before it is "official". Just kidding. You have done so well and should be proud. Remember this is a journey not a race. I think we have all written on this. I too wish we could see into the future sometimes. At least we know we will not be our bigger selves. Each day we shrink and life is good. HAPPY BIRTHDAY! Go ahead and lick the spoon. You aren't on a diet anymore.Sandyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02400904095865742386noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2360936507322491939.post-80009952686684299722010-06-15T00:56:39.214+01:002010-06-15T00:56:39.214+01:00Happy Birthday toots...congrats on all of your pro...Happy Birthday toots...congrats on all of your progress.
