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. -
Hope your drive is good Jude and you arrive safe and sound!
I'll bet you're enjoying that a/c unit Ginger, I know I'd be dying from the heat without ours.
A little space can be sacrificed in the name of comfort Rava, enjoy the new chair and the time with your g-kids.

Nothing like a good recliner, Rava!
Safe travels, Jude.

Rava, at our ages comfort is of utmost importance! We've earned it. Enjoy the grands!
Speaking of comfort, the air conditioner is great. Took 24 hours to get the temp down from 98 to 72 but it's holding there now! Yay.
I was over in the toolbox looking for the name of a book I read early in my quit. It was full of good health facts and drinking psychology written by a young man. I thought when I found Allen Carr's book that was it but as I listen to it, it's not. Do any of you have recommendations? Trying to reinforce my quit!
Have an AF blast, Jude! I'll take another!Comment

Sorry Ginger, I have no clue. But if you track it down, I hope you will share the title here. I'm glad the AC is working out well!
We're doing the two hour drive to go visit with Mr. D's brother and other family. It's going to be a group celebration of July birthdays. There are 4 family members with birthdays in July.
24 more for all of us here, please and thank you.Dill

Good morning cafe! We stayed at a friends house last night and there was a lot of booze floating around, and other than an occasional urge to drink, I felt pretty strong in my quit. Feel great this morning, but anxious to get to the beach. I'll try to get some pics and post them here.

Good morning Cafe. Jude, great job staying sober. I am not sure I am that strong. Good for you. Dill, safe travels today for your birthday party. We are also traveling 2 hours to a birthday party. We are spending the night and will travel back tomorrow. It seems like every time I spend the night at this house, I have been hungover or had covid. Doesn't really have any positive memories. It’s time to create new and healthy ones. Ginger, enjoy that AC. Cowboy hope you have a great day. Hope everyone has a sober and fun weekend. 24 more please and thank you.Comment

I'll keep searching for the title. I just recall it was a great shot in the arm to solidifying my quit. Who can't use a refresher on that?!
Safe travels everyone! Enjoy your days away. I'll take another

I can second how great AC is. It really turns the summer from pure misery to only slightly unpleasant sometimes. I can even enjoy being outside a bit because I know I can always come back inside to cool down.Comment

On the deck watching the waves roll in, ahhh...
24 more please.Comment

Praying for peace and reason.
We had a wonderful time yesterday. My son could not come because he is suffering with a bad ear infection. I feel for him. Earaches are the worst! But our granddaughter came with us and the party was an absolute delight. No booze of any kind, but lots of good food.
24 more for all of us here, please and thank you.
