VC and new beau sitting in the tree, K- I- S- S- I- N- G, first came love, then came marriage, then came baby in a baby carriage.... la la la

Welcome back VC... I've missed you.

OzSandy · 10-14-2009, 06:30 PM

Wow... I just logged on here and that's nice news. Congrats VC, I'm glad that something nice has happened for you.

This damn thing isn't giving up without a fight it seems. All I know is that I got a headache last Saturday and since then I feel almost like I am going through the first week of withdrawal. (I look at my cats and wonder how they are able to sleep whenever they like???)

My family are taking me in a few days to the Clare region, which I really like. There are wineries everywhere, you can almost imagine you are in the Mediterranean lol, the scenery is very pretty, but I hate going in the cellars, the smell of the fermenting wine makes me gag. I once drank too much wine a couple of times and made myself so sick I don't think I could ever touch it again.

Fubarcdn · 10-15-2009, 06:25 AM

Good morning class.
Yes congrats on your new relationship VC.
I know what you mean about that wine cellar smell. I remember it from when I was a kid and one of my friends fathers made Italian wine.
Although I drank wine on occasion I never really liked it but when there was nothing else to drink I wouldn't turn it down.

Today is packing day for me then I am off at 3AM tomorrow morning so I guess I will see you all again in just over a week.
Take care all.

ViciousCycle · 10-15-2009, 07:21 AM

Thanks all of you.......I really have missed you all too......been on a roll lately. Sometimes I think it is just in my DNA. lol........but I will keep trying.

We will miss you Fub. You are the glue for us. I hope you have a great time.

Nice song Michael........but the baby part? Um...no! lol.........so when do you start the new job?

I am taking an online nursing class......it is not a challenge at all. I don't even read the book, haven't looked at it in weeks. Still acing the class.....not much point I guess......

Anyway....thanks for the warm welcome back.......now we need to round up Richard.

OzSandy · 10-15-2009, 08:47 AM

Yes we'll miss you Fub but enjoy your holiday, it'll be interesting to see what the next challenge will be, I think you've been smart to have a daily plan to follow.

Richard I'm glad to see you about posting and talking about what you're going through, I think it all helps, take care the next few days.

(I had another headache a few hours ago but think I actually feel a bit better now, so maybe it's passing off.)

Richard54 · 10-15-2009, 09:34 AM

Have a great holiday Fub !
We'll miss you.

Trying to straighten up here (yet again).
Day 3 today.
Going to an AA meeting today.
I've been to this particular one before and can really relate to some of the people who go there.
I was hitting it very hard there for a while. Its amazing how quickly the booze takes total control once you get going again on it. Seems to get worse every time too.

VC,.. it's great you have a hearthrob now to share your life with.

Take care everybody, and good luck with your struggles.

Sorry VC, just part of the song... start the new job 9 Nov after finishing the remainding schedule at my present job. Hang in there funny girl.

Continue the strong work Richard.

Enjoy the Clare region with your family Sandy. I'll have to check it out online.

Can you send me a Cuban cigar... have an awesome trip Fub

OzSandy · 10-15-2009, 06:15 PM

Google 'Clare Valley' JS. There's lots of little towns like Mintaro, Auburn, Sevenhill, Watervale, and they have a lot of heritage. Lots of busy people from the city go up there weekends for a break, it's very peaceful and tranquil. I hope it's a nice day when we go and I can take my camera. It's a half hour drive from here.

I went to a few AA meetings Richard and though I didn't stick with them (I had to go into the city, AA doesn't seem to be as high profile out here) I think they did start helping me get longer stretches sober, and find some motivation.

I think I've got rotten DNA too VC, it isn't fair is it? I'd like to think I can beat the little beggars though.

Think I'm feeling a bit better today, got some decent sleep, am spending some time with my nephew later. Seeyas tomorrow.

Good EARLY morning class.
Thanks for the well wishes for my trip.
Just waiting for the cab.
See you all in a week or so.

**Dee74** · 10-16-2009, 01:19 AM

Have good time Fub - you too Sandy

Good to see you here Richard...

Hope everyone else is doing well
