    In the last 24 hours, these friends have joined in for 24 hours of wellness:

    Today is going to be a darn good day not to drink!
    Quitting and staying quit isn't easy, its learning a whole new way of thinking. It's accepting a new way of life, and not just accepting it, embracing it...
    Worry about tomorrow, tomorrow. Just get through today. Tomorrow will look after itself when it becomes today, because today is all we have to think about.
    Friendship is not about how many friends you have or who you've known the longest. It's about who walked into your life, said "I'm here for you", and proved it.

      I also was reminded of one of my favorite hymns [MENTION=7944]dill[/MENTION]. Thanks for all your quotes [MENTION=11089]techie[/MENTION]!

      Sounds like a better plan to just stay home [MENTION=24080]Jude58[/MENTION], there's not too many things you can enjoy outside when it's pouring rain lol.

      Have a safe trip up north [MENTION=24196]Rava[/MENTION], those cats might go away once you guys are back, they usually don't stick around humans, but they still might be around during the night snooping for scraps.

        Festivals are the same for me, Jude. I can't enjoy them because of the crowds. However, I think I might try to go to the local Potato Festival this weekend. If I go early enough I might be able to avoid the heaviest crowd time. We shall see.

        Rava, I haven't any ideas about how to dissuade ferrell cats. I hope Cowboy is right that just human presence may scare them off. Maybe you could get a recording of a dog barking? I heard once a long time ago that if you wanted to scare raccoons away that you just had to leave a radio playing all night. I don't know if that's true.

        24 more for all of us here, please and thank you.

        If it is important to you, you will find a way. If not, you will find an excuse.

          Rava, you might try an orange spray. Cats typically don't like the smell of citrus. Not sure it will work but your yard will smell nice!

          Nothing much going on around here today, yet! Hope it stays that way. Ha! I'll take another day.

              As predicted, it's pouring rain outside. Looks like a good day to stay in and read a good book.

              Not sure what to tell you about the feral cats Rava. Just don't feed them or they will never go away.

              24 more please...

                Good morning cafe. We are up early and hopefully arrive at our destination by dinner time. Having my first cup of coffee. All packed and ready to go. Downloaded some Netflix movies and praying for no delays. Got an extra suitcase from goodwill filled with warmer clothes to leave north. Will donate suitcase back to a thrift store! I will let you know about the cats. Thanks everyone. Wishing everybody a great Saturday! 24 more.

                    Safe travels [MENTION=24196]Rava[/MENTION]! You sound like you are really organized and ready to go!

                    Picked a bushel+ of Asian pears yesterday. We gave a 5 gallon bucket full to a neighbor who was thrilled. We are trying to decide what to do with the rest. We'll probably can them.

                    24 more for all of us here, please and thank you.

                      A nice quiet house again [MENTION=11089]techie[/MENTION], it's nice to have company, but also nice when things return to normal.

                      Safe travels today [MENTION=24196]Rava[/MENTION], hope the cat problem is solved once you get in and settled.

                      Sounds like a good day to stay home and read [MENTION=24080]Jude58[/MENTION].

                      Hmmm, if a Potato Festival means mashed with gravy, oven baked, and french fries, count me in [MENTION=7944]dill[/MENTION] lol.

                      Got off the field too late last night to head back to Veg so I'll pack up a few things and head over this morning. I'm not helping with harvest today as Bubba and I are going over to Adam and Darcie's after lunch for a smoked turkey supper. It's Thanksgiving weekend in Canada and our youngest daughter drove down from Grande Prairie yesterday and is staying there for the weekend. Should be a day filled with visiting and great food! We'll drive back tonight, then I'll head back out here tomorrow morning. If things go good, we should wrap up harvest Tuesday or Wednesday!

                        Thank you for all your hard work getting food on our tables, ABC. Enjoy your Thanksgiving turkey with your kids!

                        Safe travels, Rava! Techie, enjoy your quiet time.

                        Jude, rainy weather headed our way starting Monday! My wings are definitely going to start flapping when that happens. Lol

                        May we all enjoy another day of freedom! I'll take another.

                          Good afternoon Cafe friends. Not so quiet here as I had huge amounts of work to catch up on. Another 24 please. I wish you all the best day possible. Blessings x

                            Good morning Cafe. We had very hazy weather yesterday due to Canadian fires. Wow that travels a long way!! Today we are attending a happy hour with neighbors. I hate these. Already planning to bring my own non alcoholic drink. It?s these times that make me weak. Everyone around me drinks except Mr R. I have used cannabis in place of alcohol which I know is probably not in My best interest but I would much rather drink. That is definitely my drug of choice. Cannabis does not come close for me. Well today is a test and I will have my plan in place to drink soda. I already know if someone had a bottle of wine left open on the table I would finish it and be looking for more. It?s best not to even have one because I can?t! Wishing everyone a great and sober day. 24 please!!
                            Ya I can imagine that must be tough (and cannibis I don't find to be a social drug at all either). I'm very lucky to have friends that don't drink around me, even though I've made it abundantly clear that I don't mind; we just went for dinner last night, and I wasn't even really paying attention but if I think about it now not a single person ordered a beer, which would have been a staple back in the day. Another conundrum for me is, that one of my favorite bands is coming to town and wrestling with the idea of going, for multiple reasons, but one is that I've never (or not in ages) gone to concert sober; I think I could muster the discipline not to drink but I'm not sure how much I would enjoy the concert.

                            P.S. Haven't been on here much lately, between some social engagements and trying to get outside as much as possible to enjoyi this last blast of summery weather (in October, wow) has kept me busy.

                              Have a safe trip Rava! Hopefully the cats will leave once you get there!

                              Happy Thanksgiving cowboy! Sounds like you'll be having a great celebration. Enjoy!

                              Looking forward to another day of peace!
