Justme57 · 04-07-2004, 06:55 PM

Hi Dotperson, Chy, Janet, Bonni, trish , Anna ( if you drop by ) lol and Denise !

I am so glad you found us over here Denise , how are you going girl? Hang here with us !

I am working again today , but then have 2 whole days off 1 Yippeeeeeee! Bonni, I hope you have a wonderful, and safe trip, take care !I wish you all a great Easter .

I have been the closest to picking up a drink,I have ever been since I got sober, these last few days.Through circumstances beyond my control, I have become very over tired , and have been in a lot of physical pain, if it hadnt been for this little emergency site, and you girls, I may not have made it . I went to a meeting last nite, not one of my usual ones, but I just felt I had to go , Of course , I heard just what I needed to hear, and had lotsa hugs ! good for the soul. God is so good ! my usual rides have gone away for Easter, and someone just " happened " to ring me when i got home, to ask if I would like to go! It works , if we work it !

Sorry for the long post , but I needed to get that off my chest , i have been a bit scared, but am feeling better now, and have made arrangements to visit with another member over Easter , ( my American friend) , so all is well

Hugs Lee! I'm glad you made it to the meeting. It's okay to have those bad day's just reminds us of where we've been and don't want to go again. It amazes me how we all seem to be on the same path some day's. I had a near meltdown last week but it passed as well. Had to do some work on it though, but my sponsor alway's knows what to say to get me out of myself. Hugs and love!

Glad you made it through! At times like that, I always remember how well drinking always worked out for me, and in what great shape I was in when I got here!

Jeff_C · 04-08-2004, 04:45 PM

Hey Lee, You hang in there and keep doin whatever you're doin'------------cause it'll work just as long as ya want it to. Naaaah, we sure don't get a pass on those crummy days, but we do get increasingly effective ways to deal with 'em, and you're proof of that puddin'.

Have a wonderful Easter.

eddie z. · 04-08-2004, 04:47 PM
