You know, I was thinking of all of us the other day and started to match up different people with what they, as individuals, are going through. And there's some MAJOR SHYTE for some of us. And how amazing that everyone is facing, what I think, are issues pretty high up the Richter scale...sober. Wow. I do not (thank God) have anything remotely minor even, going on. Each and every one of you is an inspiration for me.

OK..I'm glued back together. I can't tell you how funny I felt, walking into the dentist, with my tooth in a little baggie, saying "Could you please glue this back on? The Gary Larsen in me was imaging all sorts of funny scenarios....the pirate hopping in, carrying his peg, saying "my foot fell off, have any glue?"....that sort of stuff.
And then I went to the market to load up on water for the project. Call me Gunga Din!

I remember one christmas mornin.. i was visiting my mum and had stayed the night before... anyway i woke with the cap off my tooth in my mouth... thankfully i hadnt swollowed it...
My mum didnt know what to do so we got some chewing gum... stuck my tooth back in with that until i could get to the dentist...

Christmas dinner was ate very warily

Welcome home Tan glad you enjoyed the cruise. I'm considering the World's - it all depends on $ of course - but I'll try to decide soon. I would love to meet up!

Back to the gym for me today my back finally allowed it.

I just finished decorating my daughters room, it looks so pretty, she will be so surprised when she gets home. I probably won't be here when she gets in I'll be at my meeting, I think its a Tradition meeting tonight. I'm so excited about her birthday, I went to party store and brought decorations, a crown with a 21 on it for her, plates & napkins with Happy 21 Birthday, a BIG wall banner and lots and lots of balloons. I will decorate the Dining Room when she goes out tonight to toast her birthday with her friends. The cake will be made by me tomorrow night, she wants a home made cake, she doesn't eat store bought cakes, very picky. The flowers my sponsor made up for me are absolutely gorgeous, if I can find what my son did with my digital camera I will take a picture and post for you to see. I'm so excited, I know I said that, but I am.

Stone... All is not lost my friend.

Hiya Tanya, Lis, Bee, Ro, Nellie, Louis and the rest.

I'm angry today. Work issues. Nothing major, though. Just small things that add up. Thinkin' 'bout attending a step meeting if I get out of here early enough. Just wanted to stop in LIS for a sec and say hi.

Ro are you showing your house today or tomorrow? Well I'll be praying for you.

Hey Nelcs thanks for remembering my psych interview tomorrow. If y'all could send up a prayer or good wishes at 1130 am EST it sure would be appreciated. I feel pretty good.

Bee, you're such a great mom - getting all excited about decorating her room when she is 21. She's very lucky to have you. I know you'll say it's the other way around - but you know what I mean.

Ken - sorry about your mood - hoping you'll make it to that meeting. I'm going to one myself, tonight. Going to meet my sponsor there. She's still mightily struggling with depression and needs support.

One couple came through the house today. Haven't heard anything. You guys will be the first to know when I do!
