GOOD DAY BOOZE BUSTERS!!!!!! I will have a permanent smile on my face today because it's Day 90, and YOU guys help make me feel really good about that. I'm smiling and it's about 5:10AM here. Back in the drinking days, being awake was not possible at this hour, much less being awake, smiling, already have a load of laundry and some accounting work underway. AF LIFE IS GOOD!!!!

Thank you thank you for all the nice 90 Day messages!!!

louise, congratulations on Day 9!! How are you hanging in with work, and also helping your sister? You still sound a bit drained - I hope you are doing OK. Good to be AF - alcohol would not help and would actually drag you down in the end. I did hear from Hannah and she said she was just very very busy. She reads to catch up and then runs out of time to post! I think we've all felt that way sometimes. Better to just skip to the end and say hi rather than try to read everything and respond to everyone personally when short on time!! So Hannah if you are reading, just post and say hi!!

Marshy, you crack me up. I bet rowing machines the world over are in hiding right now. It sounds like your counseling sessions are really ramping up to the serious stuff. I hope you are finding them beneficial. You are making me hungry with that curry talk!

Wild Rose, I'm glad you are spending lots of time reading here at MWO. That's such a good idea - will help you formulate your own strategy. I hope you have a good day today!!

Mame - next week is the vacation for you and Uncle Mame, right? I think I have cob webs in my head. It's nice to know that my forgetfulness is not due to AL - it's just due to......me. Age. Whatever. I like your advanced Monday-itis solution. I can't wait to tell Mr. Doggy one of these days that I have Advanced Monday-itis and the only solution is to take the day off!!! Tell us (again, I'm sure) where you are going next week. Is spring coming finally in your neck of the woods?

I've got a busy morning as usual - I will start out at Curves, then to the Chamber of Commerce meeting, then a WHOLE bunch of errands. I hope to be back to the office by 10:30 or so, but that will be pushing it. I got some packages in the mail last night of stuff I ordered. Can't wait to try it all on and hope it fits!!!

Thanks again for making this day a special one for me. I still can't believe after so many years of daily drinking, I have gotten this far. I do feel a bit like my sobriety needs a much stronger foundation under it. I'm exploring some different tools and programs that might help me in that area. I think I have a lot of self exploration to do - figuring out what "Phase Next" of my life will be. I want more purpose in my life. I can't believe how much time I have wasted cozying up with AL.

LET'S KICK SOME BOOZE BEAST A$$ TODAY!!!! We CAN do it.
