Gelgit, so glad to hear you are safe. It sounds just awful and of course you don't want to leave because then you would worry even more. Glad things are less windy. I will keep praying for rain. We had a torrential downpour Sun. and the roof of the movie theater we were in started leaking! So I missed a few minutes of "Get Smart" as we changed seats.
DG- so happy for you and Fergie and Mr. Doggie. Mr. Doggie looks so happy and Ferguson looks very proud of himself.
Welcome Mickeyshell. I think the trick to weekends is planning other kinds of rewards. Once you get through a couple they get way easier. Sheepish, good for you getting right back up. At least you seem to have a sense of humor about the whole thing. And it could have been much worse – a least you were drinking slowly. Congrats on day 2 sothankful and good going at the gym. Yes, I think learning not to drink is like learning a new habit, just like I originally learned the habit of drinking.
Marshy, I’m sure all that practice saying “no thank you” will come in handy. That is a pretty funny picture you painted of your dad asking over and over. Maybe he is happiest with a drink in hand and wants to make sure you are happy too. You handled it so well. I’m afraid I would have started screaming.
Teardrop, you must get the prom pictures! I still have mine from highschool. I’m sure he will be very handsome.
Mame, that thought about the hypno was very interesting. Yes, anything that helps at all even if not a magic panacea is useful.
Thanks for dropping in Amelia. Glad things are going well for you.
Happy Canada Day Hannah. Hope the fireworks are good. Sounds like you and hubby have a nice week planned. Sorry you are so stiff from car riding. Do you need new shocks? Hve you tried tonic and lots of lime? It tastes almost like a real gin and tonic. And I haven’t tried the cranberry cocktail, but it sounds good but might also be acidic. Decaf iced coffee?? I look forward to other suggestions. We went out for dinner the other night and I was very aware thre was no af beer or wine or anything! I just had water, but when you aren’t eating anything that is kind of boring in a social situation.
Day 32 for me. Have been feeling depressed as relationship issues have not magically disappeared, but getting on and saying hi to all helps. Hope I did not miss anyone who posted. Hi to all to come.
