Saturationday 8ff

[Samstone]

Well I'm up so what the hey, eh?? Did a little benefit thingy for the local library with some folks I've just started playing with. Hopefully the library made a little money. It was kinda wet from the rain that finished this afternoon but some folks turned out and no one threw any tomatoes etc at us so all in all it was fun.

off to visit the sandman. Check in later good friends, how do to you Can Too!

The asylum seeker replies, "I have four wives and twelve kids, can they come too?"
The man says, "Fck off, I've only got a small lawn!"

Would you buy a jigsaw with a scan of your brain on it?

morning everyone,glad it's the weekend - and to be sober.
Think I may be on 7 or 8 weeks now,really can't remember,feel good though and don't plan to start again - counting seems to mess me up a bit anyway - almost like a 'how long can you last' mentality kicks in.

Person at work signed off sick v stress,ideal in a way as I don't have to deal with her and I can get a temp in.Apart from that am dealing with it all pretty well,partly due to fact I am exercising,and getting up a bit later than 6.30 am,extra 15 min seems to make all the difference.

This weekend friends over for christmas day, quick run at the gym and bit of cleaning and tidying pre arrival.Lovely booze free eve last night,skate and picnic with ex-rollergirls at the lake.
Feeling happy and not much else to say, good to see you all.

[Mick]

sheeeeeit!!! apologies bear missed you out!!!!well done on the nae booze cruise......interesting that you arent counting...works for some ...a good piece of info for you to pass on to new starters who struggle....well done

[bear73]

[Lavande]

Good morning Abbers!

It's Saturday, right?
So why is the youngest up at 6 & raring to go?? He never seems to settle down for long.

Greetings to Sam, Eloise, Mick, bear & everyone checking in today.
Hopefuly I will get a few quiet moments this evening to check in again.
Have a great AF day one & all

MAE all,

Thanks for starting us off, Sam. I'd say you sure have got the hang of Mick-speak!

Eloise, visiting windmills in the Netherlands? Such an interesting agenda!

Hi Mick, yep Procrastination Pie I am. Got a kick out of the Texas-themed jokes.

Hi Bear, happy to hear you're feeling happy. I agree on the counting, do it or not, as it suits you.

Lav, funny deal on the 10 pm laundry. Glad YB has returned to back you up.

Hi PQ, bathroom painting project is awaiting primer. We'll see how long that takes.

Hello CanToo and everyone else popping in.

Meeting friends for lunch today. Drinking is a non-issue with this bunch, so should be just a fun time catching up.

[NoSugar]

Bear, did you really say "Christmas day" ??? Say it isn't so!!!!

Mick, I must admit I love your non-politically correct jokes :haha:. Hero took me a minute but I cracked up when I got it.

Sam, isn't it fun when what we love to do for ourselves is good for others?

Good to see you, El. Your normal life would be such a major holiday for me! You're smart to enjoy what your new home offers. It sounds like you've lived all over the world (US, Caribbean, Netherlands, where else??).

Lav, your kids sure are lucky you're a SuperSoberGrandma! They'd never be able to take off for so long if not for you.

Have fun with your friends at lunch, Pie. It's nice when people don't drink but when they do, my biggest problem isn't the not participating but getting bored when they start getting stupid. It's made me really love earlier-in-the-day social events.

CanToo, you were posting about being 6 months AF around the time I joined MWO. You were so cheery and upbeat -- I wanted to vault into the future and be just like you! Now I know why you were so happy - being comfortably AF is one of the best things ever! I hope you're still doing well.

Enjoy the weekend, Abbers! NS

MAE ALL....

Sounds like everyone's day is off to a good start including mine.

Sam...thanks for starting us off before hitting the hay. There's another useless saying. LOL

Eloise...morning to you.

Mick...my provider wants me to upgrade to the S6 as well. Will be interested in hearing what she thinks of it. Glad you got some good rest.

Bear...totally confused! Christmas Day?

Lav...oh to have the energy of the youngins!

Pi...well at least it's ready for the primer. LOL Have a great time at lunch today.

Taking it easy today...hot and sunny for my visit with Dad. Visit to the garden to water and then will see what the rest of the day brings. Have a Super Sober Saturday all....:smile:PPQP

[NoSugar]

x-post PPQP! I hope your eyes are feeling better! I have a recurring problem too (hives on my torso) that comes and goes. It can make you feel kind of crazy!! xx

[Mick]

ppqp.as far as the s6 goes.......julie wasnt interested in it she wanted the s5....but now she is made up with the s6...she thinks its brill...and got to be honest its really fast and watching the screen and photographs..they are actually a lot better than television screen stuff!!

as far as the non-political jokes and pc ness..I am careful about some of it...as long as people dont take exception to it...

[NoSugar]

I LOVE your jokes, Mick. They are gently non-PC. A sense of humor is important :hug:.

[porqoui]

Hi NS....I now consider myself lucky! LOL

Thanks for the info Mick....I find it very hard to get upset over jokes. They're JOKES! Geeze!

Off to Dad's will check in later....:smile:PPQP

[Mick]

I wake up every morning bright and breezy and looking forward to the day ahead.

Which kinda screws up my ambition to be a country and western singer

A man walks into his bedroom with a sheep under his arm.
His wife is lying in bed reading.
The man says, "This is the pig I have sex with when you've got a headache."
His wife replies, "I think you'll find that is a sheep."
The man replies, "I think you'll find I was talking to the sheep."

Bill Clinton, Hilary Clinton, and Al Gore were in an aeroplane that crashed. They're up in heaven, and God's sitting on the great white throne. God addresses Al first.

"Al, what do you believe in?"

Al replies, "Well, I believe that the combustion engine is evil and that we need to save the world from CFCs and that, if any more freon is used, the whole earth will become a greenhouse and we'll all die."

God thinks for a second and says, "Okay, I can live with that. Come and sit at my left."

God then addresses Bill. "Bill, what do you believe in?"

Bill replies, "Well, I believe in power to the people. I think people should be able to make their own choices about things and that no-one should ever be able to tell someone else what to do. I also believe in feeling people's pain."

God thinks for a second and says, "Okay, that sounds good. Come and sit at my right."

God then address Hilary. "Hilary, what do you believe in?"

"I believe you're in my chair."
