Tell me about it... I'm so ashamed of how I just 'didn't bother'... Don't get me wrong - I didn't go to work looking totally scummy or anything. But I made zero effort and all the details fell by the wayside - it was always the bare minimum for me, with everything.

You're absolutely right - it is a very good thing. I still need to work on it - work on the part of me that promotes 'caring'. But that's OK - it'll come.

Thanks LaFemme,
BB

What I've learned is to let go of expectations. Be grateful you don't have cravings or obsess about alcohol because so many newcomers are.

I know... I know... (that's what's behind my 'pink cloud' thread...). Trust me, I'm beyond grateful.

when I was 3 weeks sober i had a comment from someone at work....it had nothing to do with my physical appearance...but he commented that I was "smiling more", talking to people and no longer slamming into my office and shutting the door....which gave others who worked for/with me...the impression that i was displeased with them...in reality I was just trying to hide my nausea, red eyes and shaky hands....I hated signing off on things when someone was standing around....it was like a big pointing sign with light...."LOOK she has shaky hands.....she needs a drink".....

keep your great attitude....eat well and drink your water.
