Woowho,
first to post on part 6! Jealous VC?

You know that while Fub is away, the substitute teacher takes over. And wether you like it or not, that's you VC. I'll be expecting a daily checking in. You'll have to tear yourself away from the studies and the stud for a few moments each day.

Glad you're feeling better today Sandy.

Have to work today and the weekend...yuk

Hey Wendy congrats to your Patriots... they gave the Titans a huge beat down.

Hard to believe my lowly Raiders beat the Eagles!

Hard to believe about Oakland but they have had a long road.....PLUS......they have a recent addition of an ex-Patriot......what can you expect? Same reason Denver is doing so well.....they have our defensive coach and a couple players......KC finally got one too as a spin off from my boys.......what's a girl to do? I like all of them! Serious, glad Matt Cassell got a win, he is a great dude.

Good luck with that Sand........I hope it will help.

I actually bowled like a real person last night....had two good games........first time this year.......the stud is on the men's league right next to us so I blame him for my lousy bowling! LOL,,,,,,,,

When does Fubby get back?? I miss him.

Hello class..

I'm on day 8 of no alcohol with my current attempt.

Oh well, I've been sober WAY longer than drinking this year,,and that is a positive for me.

As you say Sandy,,,,Onwards and Upwards.

I think the Fub went for a week, so I expect he might get back this weekend....

Not sure Fub is "relaxing" on the beach, after his phys challenge/work outs, he's probably posing as the pretty girls walk by... while wearing his baseball hat.

I commend you Sandy for reaching out and getting help from the health care providers, even if it seems not to be helping right now... I believe it will all come together in the end... the positive actions we do today will directly effect the desired outcome of our tomorrows, and of course any negative actions we do today... reaping what we sow.

What... no picture of Marty888 looking buff in Bali, disappointment is setting in.

I officially put in my 2 weeks notice yesterday and will start my new job 9 Nov. Looking forward to the change and new challenge.

Have today and the weekend off, whoohoo.

I'm guessing Fub will return this weekend, looking forward to his recalling of the trip... should be an interesting story. Wonder if there is gambling there, probably, you know how he loves his poker.

Big (((hug))) to Sandy, I love hugs.

Congrats Michael, bet it felt good putting in your notice. On to new things!

Good morning.
Back from vacation and back on the wagon.
I had a few drinks while away but did not get drunk so I consider myself still sober.
My wife gave me the OK to try moderate drinking but only while we were away so it is back to abstinence for me again until she paroles me again.
It was weird but I didn't really want to get drunk but it was nice to have a few to socialize with people we met.
If you don't want to drink at all I would not recommend an all inclusive since non drinkers do not fit in well with the scene and there is a pressure to participate. This is why my wife gave me an exemption. We were feeling isolated from the rest of the crowd. If you are a complete loner, which I am not, it may work out for you.

As far as the highlights of the trip it was mostly just relaxing on the beach and around the pool.
We went on one side trip to Manatanzas, a city with a bit of history, but it was quite boring. Not even getting drunk would have made that fun.

Glad to see everyone here moving on.
Good to be back with you all.

Your nephew is blessed to have an aunt like you Sandy.

My wife and I don't have any kids together, I have two from a previous marriage that live in Canada with their mother. We have tried invitro/invivo three times without success.

Like you she pours love, time and her heart into her niece and two nephews.

Good morning class

Well it is back to the old routine.
Back to the gym.
Back to no drinking.
Back to new sweets.
I got about 5 pounds to lose again.
Ho hum.

Welcome back Fub... we missed yah!

Don't think I could control it like you did. The first day of free drinks at the resort would have turned into a non stop drinking holiday for me.

But good for you. Hope it doesn't set you off though.

I'm on day 13 of no alcohol today....I've got more done in the last two weeks than I have since July when I started up again.

No real urges to speak of either...just keeping busy seems to keep the devil in its box. Been to a couple of meetings too, and they help. Days and weekends seem so much longer, and way more enjoyable again.

It's nice to be sober and enjoying life...!!!

I will stay in the corner for the rest of the week with the dunce cap on.

I am done with drink for a long time. Probably until my next vacation south next year and maybe longer. One day at a time and all that.
