Trach, well, it was dang hot in that sweater...I was feeling pretty oppressed by the heat. I'm under the ceiling fan now, why can't one roast okra? I had some braised celery this afternoon that was quite tasty. I would never have thought to braise celery. Normally I'd just chop it up for salad or put peanut butter in the groove with raisins. Ants on a log, we call it!
What are you doing doing up so late?

Isn't it a tad early for discussions of slimy, disgusting okra? I haven't even had breakfast yet. ** shudder **
The only way to make it even remotely palatable is to dredge it in flour\cornmeal and fry it into submission. Just sayin'.

Good morning, kids! I slept and feel mich better.
I am going to have to rally and get out to get supplies.
I like snails with lots and lots of butter and garlic. Haven't had them in years.
I guess I got a late start in life on drinking. I didn't like it. Drank a few time in high school, threw up and had a terrible hangover and didn't repeat it again for years. It was always about not being able to sleep. At one point I was working two jobs and going to school and still wasn't able to sleep. Someone suggested brandy. Yuck. Sherry. Yuckier. And didn't work anyway. But as time went on Andi was in my mid and late 20s I could drink alone to pass out sleep. At least it was shutting down for a while and real stupid. It was never for fun or to party.
I guess I'm very lucky most drugs make me sick in some way. Who know how much troubled i may have had? And I was back and forth, up and down. Somehow didn't completely ruin my life or my health. But every time I would drink again, it was worse. I felt worse, I needed more and it didn't work. I don't know why I would always think it might. So strange.
I've got seven years now. Rational Recovery works for me. The Theory of it makes sense. AA is a very good plan to clean up ones life and get stuff in order. I think it's important to do something every day for sobriety, so we don't forget. It's important to do some self care every day. To do something fun too. I think when we are in the grip of addiction, we forget how to have fun. Crazy.
OK, I'll be around this week.

Ok then, so here we are. The little gathering we were talking about keeping up with. So, good. LeeLee, LeeLee, LeeLee. You were going to tell me about this new thread when we got it going.
I went to the store looking for okra and due to all of this talk, started here, okra is trending and so now there has been a run on it worldwide and can now only be found on the black market, exorbitantly priced and offered only by the shadiest of characters with very narrow mustaches who also deal in knock-off watches dangling from the insides of their coats.
