    Today is the day! Weather is "iffy" but we shall see...

    Today will be a good day not to drink!
    Dill

    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.

      Good Saturday morning. Hoping those family reunions turn out great today for Dill and Ginger! Slo, your post was full of positivity. So glad things could be turning the corner. Good luck with the drywall issue Cowboy. I like the breadboard suggestion as a back up. Our tiny house is drywalled which we love. Some of them are older type modular home/trailers with no drywall. It makes a huge difference! Hi to Mul and Jude! Hope everyone has a good day. We have no plans today. No drinking or activities that tempt me planned. 24 more please and thank you.

        That's great news about the podiatrist Slo and glad you were able to get out and socialize a bit.

        I tend to stay away from garage sales Jude as I usually always buy a bunch of stuff that looks cool but don't really need lol.

        I think hot and dry is getting to be the norm for summers in all of western Canada Mulburry.

        Hope you both enjoy your reunions dill and Ginger. My family's reunion is next weekend at a Provincial Park about a 3 hour drive from us. Luckily there is a hotel right in the park and we've booked a room for both Saturday and Sunday night.

        I think Adam would just as soon stay with drywall as well Rava, and that's what was quoted on in the package.
        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.

            Slo, good luck with your appt Tuesday!

            This reunion reminds me how much I enjoy the quiet routine we've established. Hubby feels the same way. When I was drinking, I loved these kinds of things. Funny how we change when AL is removed from the equation. My sil got me aside to say how much she missed our connection in the "old days". Meaning, when we'd sit and drink a bottle or two of wine together just blathering on about nothing. I pray I never go back to that, even if it means losing that connection. It's so not worth it.

            Waves to all. I'll take another day of freedom

              I don’t know if a podiatrist really has anything to offer. Maybe nothing but X-rays and cortisone shots. But I feel desperate for some opinions from someone who should know a lot about feet.

              Yeah, I tried to be positive, Rava. That’s good that you have nothing to tempt you to drink today.

              Yes, it’s definitely a good day for you not to drink, Dill! Tempting at a party though.

              That’s so true about drinking, Ginger. I used to love things like that (social occasions like your reunion) simply because I loved drinking. I loved to lose track of time and feel in flow, not think so much, and be glib of tongue. That’s the up side of the drug. It stopped working consistently in the later years though.

              Yesterday I found a condo model that I really like! And I found right where I want to live, where they are building it! However, I am realizing belatedly that I would like to live there. When they first started selling lots there, I didn’t think I did. And now, the good lots are all sold. The one lot that is left with that model, I would not like to live on at all.

              I picked up a knee scooter this morning an hour away in my cousin’s town, and got to visit with my cousin for a couple hours too!

              Let’s all commit to keeping our quits firmly in place today: no falling into the trap!

              Once a pickle, never a cucumber again.
