HAPPY EASTER to my 30 day family!

MA, i am so excited and proud for you....you go girl. I gardened and cooked all day. I am BEAT....tomorrow we have big egg hunt and dinner at my house. I can not wait. I am very excited. Really feeling strong tonight...Topa is on its way!!! Guess I will be on it forever, but it makes such a difference for me. I read this week that topa actually helps with bipolar disorder. I feel like a different person on it after about a month, but withon a week I feel FUNNY again. I have wondered before if i were bipolar...not severe but a mild case. I can go go go for a good while, but when I crash it is very depressing for me. Anyway...topa here I come to stay.
Greenie so glad your trip was nice. Did ya meet any fellas????
Sped...hope this is a sober Easter for you and you are feeling stronger by the day.
TIT...I forgot to comment on your experience...I too thank-you for sharing it with us. I know that was a personal experience and feel special that you shared with us.
More...hope u are having a blast!!!
Bird..hope you and the kids have a nice holiday and find lots of eggs..
Nibs...love you tons and XXXX glad you are doing so well and warmer weather is on its way.

Happy Easter everybody xxx
I'm just stopping by real quick before starting my coleslaw, turnip and such... I can almost smell the turkey already !!! Yummmm !!!
Tomorrow, #1 son and I will go into town for our dentist appointment and a bit of shopping.
The sun is nice and bright...
Good for you Luv for ordering more topa... now, I'm just curious though, will you experience topa-dopa when you start taking it again?... Will you titrate up?... hmmmmm.... I have some topa in my medicine cabinet but need to not be a "topa-dopa" in my line of work. I have to be as sharp as a tack so to speak.
Well, enjoy your Easter everybody
Hugs, xxx
MA, I love how you sound right now !!! so positive.

Happy Easter all. Nibs, yes when you stop you still have to slowly go back up. I did not expereince the topa-dopa nearly as bad last time I started taking it again though. It typically only lasts for about a week or two for me anyway....I consider it the better of the evils because without it the cravings get pretty bad and in time I will end up slipping...which means a hangover..so I can't be sharp hungover either. SO, topa here I come.
Hope everyone has a nice day! I love you all TONS!

30 days???

Happy Easter!! (again!)

I just wanted to say hey, hope everyone is good, LUV, I am so happy you are staying so strong, you motivate me to do the same.............Nibs, Glad you are having a wonderful Easter, dinner sounds marvelous!! Bird, bet you have tons of eggs, we do........................

I am starting to get aquainted w/ my online classroom, classmates, instructor.........this ought to be different, that is for sure...................good for me though!

Had an awesome day, gym, pool, riding, now eating a steak dinner w/ veggies and baked potato, nothing big, Mike is outside drinking beer, Zac is sitting here w/ me listening to some good tunes, and I just decided to pop on here..................

Still the same here, Mike wasn't home Friday when I got home from my AA outing, then last evening we had dinner w/ his family, I left w/ Zac as soon as done eating (all they were doing is drinking, I cleaned up and went to the mall..........promised Zac some shoes, so got him and me some!) got home, went to bed, Mike didn't get home til at least after midnight, cuz I was up watching TV til then.................it always seems the better I get the worse he gets...................this is so again so far. He did go horseback riding w/ me though (for a price)

Everyone else, I hope you are well!:h:h

I MADE IT THROUGH EASTER...sober and I am happy, stuffed, and tired..but a good tired tonight. It was very nice. Ended up with 18 people....played horse shoes...fried turkeys...all the good stuff. We hid about 400 eggs...man the kids had fun.

MA...we will make it through together girl. I dont know that Mike does any worse than he ALWAYS does honey...I think you just NOTICE when you arent drunk too. He kinda gets disgusting doesn't he? You dont want to be like him...so you keep on keeping on. XXXXX

30 days???

Monday morning

Just wanted to say hey before I head out the door to work, I will pray all the way there, need to so I don't stress out too bad, did I tell you all I had my 2nd "new employee review"(which I have only seen one other new employee go to and she didn't come back!?!?) They said they can see I am trying harder, (no praise or "good job" on anything though ), which is how the last one went, except you are doing this and this and that wrong...............NOTHING good............they even compaired me to another new employee.............who I really like, but how childish, I think that is the first thing they taught me in management..............or the second..............(first was positive comments, then negative ones when giving constructive criticism)....................oh well, here I go........................

I DO HAVE A JOB THOUGH, RIGHT~? For that I am truly grateful................

I start school tonight for my RN too....................a step in the right direction.................

LUV, we will do fine..................KUDOS for making it through Easter........................for all of us, even if we drank.....................we made it!!

love you guys, check in later...................:l:h

tit, I believe every word you wrote - I'm sure God reached out to touch you. Obviously you are going to mean a lot to other alcies

Quick fly by - gotta get to the bank. MA, maybe it's just their way of being stingy and not having to give you a raise. That's gotta suck. You know you are doing a good job and how you feel is most important. Learn everyting you can as it will come to benefit you later on. :l

30 days???

I echo what greenie said MA.... I know it's tough, but gain what you can from all the experiences to be all that you can be !!! They are good and darn lucky to have such a wonderful worker !

Luv, sounds like lots of great memories were made on your Easter day xxx
Last night when all the chores were done I had a nice hot relaxing bath and then took 25 mg of topa. I'm going to take that daily and then titrate up in about a week. My aim is to mod although lately I'm not doing as well as I need to be doing. This long winter has really been getting to me although that shouldn't be an excuse. Hopefully topa will leave me atleast like a dull tac if not as sharp as a tac. Haa !! Haaa !!
MA, I'll be thinking of you tonight as you start your RN... I'm so proud of you xxx Do this for you as you so deserve this !
Hugs everybody, xxx

30 days???

Thanks for the support!

I am having a pretty good day, seems the boss has found someone else to pick on, someone who is not "perfect"..........I am just staying as busy as I can........which is hard, the weather is turning ugly and we have had alot of "no shows". I may have to go home early, which means a crappy paycheck...........but who knows......it is noon so I only have about 5 more hours, yeah!

Talk to you all later, much love,

Mary Anne :l:h
