Not drinking is our super power.
Congratulations Narilly on 10 months.
J-vo Happy Birthday dear lady.
2 more days and then life will slow down to just plain hectic. Not frantically hectic.No matter how far you go or how fast you run, you can't get away from yourself. ....said at an AA meeting. It stuck with me.Comment

I am still crazy busy but that should slow down Monday, Woohoo.
Tomorrow we take the girl dogs for baths and nail trims then I get my roots covered up then maybe dancing which depends on the weather. Bitter cold....I so need to sleep in.
I am sorry I have not read back yet but am thinking of you all.Comment

I am in bed now and very grateful to be sober. It's hard to believe I haven't had AL for 10 months. I love it. Being sober has been a cycle of continuous improvement, it just gets better and better. It is my super power.
Jane- im going to keep using that.
I can be Super Nar! With a cape and everything (and Wonder Woman boobs too). Lol
Goodnight Gloaters
Looking forward to an Un Hung Friday.Narilly

Super boobs! Yay, hubby will appreciate that.
I'm playing hooky today. Shhhh.
Nar I am looking forward to Sunday. After the big day I will actually be able to relive to party. Knowing I didn't do anything to regret. And enjoy the pictures without feeling thst sense of shame that always went along with drinking. Oh I'm really excited about the party and parade tomorrow, but knowing I won't have any regrets just makes it that much sweeter.No matter how far you go or how fast you run, you can't get away from yourself. ....said at an AA meeting.

Superboobs Nar?? At my age, I'll take the soup lolQuitting 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.Comment

Hey all,
Congrats Nar on 10 months. Yes it does keep getting better and better!!
Off to get my hair done. It is such a hassle but I am NOT going gray. I like being a redhead and so I will continue to pay for it. Girl doggies are getting their hair and nails done today too.
Not sure if we will go dancing tonight. dh wants to go to a train thingy tomorrow morning and it is just bitter cold so who knows.
Happy Friday!!Comment

LOL, you guys are hilarious! Cowboy, ok sure you can have your soup but I am still going to be Super Nar!
Dancing Dottie, I think that should be your name.
It is super warm here so that is Great!
My co worker's daughter's boyfriend got drunk yesterday. I mean totally shitfaced. He ran into a power pole and basically cut his truck in 1/2. 4000 people were without power in our City. Then he took off so they didn't know where he was. It is 11:44 am and he just showed up at his girlfriend's house all bloody and bruised. Now he is off to the hospital. I told my co worker to call the police and tell them what was going on so he didn't look like he was hiding.
What a shit show.
Glad I am not drinking.
Talk to you later.
Talk about bad decision making!Narilly

Happy 10 months Nar, sorry a bit belated. Its lucky the drunk guy only hurt himself, it could have been worse. I was always careful not to drive drunk but i do remember times that i thought i was ok and drove to get that "extra" bottle which obviously i wasnt ok if i drove to get more. I am so glad those days are over.
Been busy in Aus land, dogs all recovered so now waiting on my bank account to do the same, liams still doing as little as possible, he laughed when i told him what you all said. i have had a severe reaction to some sun spot cream i was using on some skin cancers so feeling pretty miserable. It is on my chest so totally obvious to all and i cant cover it as it is so itchy, inflamed, ulcerated and just damn sore. stopped the cream and now onto steroids to calm it down before starting again.
Spent the day on phenergan yesterday, (love it), stops itching and makes me sleep. did catch up on The 100, Mom, Backstrom and a few other shows. I quite enjoy remembering a whole tv series now and not just the name of the show which i really didnt remember either when i drank.
take care everyone.

Not a lot to say - feeling content again, moon is in the right phase it appears....
been doing too much shopping - on line...that and chocolate are feeding my addictive personality - have to stop, or moderate :egad:
This thread is slowing and that makes me sad - so trying to think of something to write - but brain not cooperating...
Contentedly sober today - hoping that this lasts longer than a few days just now as I really like thsi place - not too up or too down...
sun is out today and warmer outside than inside, but inside I have to be at this thing called work. Will get my Saturday walk in tomorrow. Three day weekend, but two science fair (mandatory) projects to be completed this weekend - so nagging will ensue at some point:sad:
See you all later, and check in to those who are missing...“The only courage you will ever need is the courage to live the life you want"Comment

Hi all,
SL - glad you are feeling content.. Moon or even Chinese New Year coming up, Year of the Goat..
I'm doing good, been listening to lots of podcasts, that really great Tommy Rosen one, a link of which was posted somewhere.. And ...
Very informative about gut health and how paramount it is for us, particularly as women.. There was a really interesting talk by Sara Gottlieb about hormone health
I've got time to listen to all this stuff because I'm not drinking, I can understand and remember what I'm listening to.. Again, because I'm not drinking... Then, I may be able to pass it on to other people who are interested in health... Just great. I'm really enjoying being sober.
I hope you all have a peaceful MAE
Xx
