    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.

      Good morning Cafe. I forgot to post yesterday. Neighbor issue was resolved by not attending Thanksgiving dinner. We will go to the beach. This will be my first Thanksgiving without family or friends. I tell myself it’s just another day. It’s ok and I won’t have to worry about drinking! Usually our building just has it for our building. A neighbor took it upon herself to ask a few other neighbors. I then asked another neighbor and was told if she came, then some of the others would not come. It’s all ridiculous. Mr. r just said forget it. It was all cordial. We don’t want drama so we excused ourselves. Hope everyone has a drama free day!! 24 more please!!IMG_8422.jpg

        Rava, That sounds like a lot of nonsense and I don't blame you for withdrawing. Seems the spirit of Thanksgiving was missed in that group. No matter how you end up spending Thanksgiving, you can still take some time to reflect on your blessings, of which you seem to have many. The other day I saw an announcement for a community meal on Thanksgiving and I thought that if I didn't have the grandkids coming and looking forward to our Thanksgiving meal that I would like to just go and participate in the community meal. Anything like that where you live?

        It's a terrible fall day, typical of November. I shouldn't really complain because we have had some unseasonably warm and sunny weather of late. We actually need the rain.

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

        Dont forget, you can: start late, start over, be unsure, try and fail AND STILL SUCCEED!

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

          Rava, that sounds so middle school. People! We have a huge Thanksgiving gathering here but we don't go. We just have another couple over for a traditional meal with cards after. The gathering is just toooo "peopley" for me and never fails to trigger my anxiety and the urge to self medicate. Ugh

          Jude, that made me chuckle! Stay safe on that scooter.

          Off to golf at 1p today. It's been ages since I was out so this should be interesting! I'll take another.

            Good morning Cafe friends. Food for thought. In the past eight years, I have lost my dad, mom, my sister, my close cousin and three very good friends. Combination of cancer, Flu, & Covid. I would often seldom not travel back East for holiday’s to avoid the drama.. They are all gone now and I would give ANYTHING to go home for Thanksgiving despite the drama, guilt trips, and sometimes arguing to hug and laugh and share stories and just LOVE on them all. There is nothing left and no longer a reason to travel East.

            Another 24 please. I wish you all the best day possible. Blessings x

              Techie, you have had a lot losses over the years, and I know how hard the holidays can be. Thanksgiving is supposed to be about gratitude, but in today's crazy world, being grateful seems to have taken a back seat. Sad...

              Rava, doesn't sound like you'll be missing much by not going to the "drama dinner." Have you considered spending the holiday volunteering? Many places offer free meals to those with little to no income on Thanksgiving, and they are always looking for people to help out. It can be a rewarding experience helping others, and it's also a good reminder to be thankful for what we have.

              24 more for all of us please...

                I'll be preparing a few things today for tomorrow's meal. I took the ashes out this morning and the air had a definite feel of winter. Feels like Thanksgiving.

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

                    Good morning Cafe. Ginger, too peopley got me. So funny!! So true! Jude, I have volunteered before and liked it very much. I will be at the beach counting my blessings this year. Happy to be out of neighborhood drama and the heavy temptation to drink. Reading a great book called The Attic Child by Lola Jaye and plan to finish it. Wishing everyone a great and sober day! Another 24 please!

                      Morning! Even though I won't be home for Thanksgiving, I'm so very grateful for this wonderful group of friends I have here.

                      I'll take another gratefully.

                        Canadian Thanksgiving is in October and this year we actually went to Adam & Darcie's as our youngest daughter was down from Grande Prairie and was there as well. For as long as I can remember we've always been in Vegreville for Thanksgiving with Bubba's mom and dad, and now just her mom. It's not who with or where we spend Thanksgiving that matters to me, it's the fact that I have many, many things to be thankful for.

                            Grateful for my sobriety, so not today.
