Hi Ted, Good for you. If you ever want to chat, you know where to come - I'll be about here for a few weeks at least.
Four horsemen? bugger that makes a mess of the carpet. Then again, wouldn't like to live with the three dancing bananas of the apocalypse either! LOL!

Vitimin B and pickled chilli did it for me. I recon you could just about do pickled chilli on a banana with yogurt. Good luck Ted and let us know how you get on.

Deg.

TED,
stoked to see you back. i just came back and am looking for exactly the same as you. we should feed off each other. CRS(bob) is also on the relapse. BOB, we need you too!!!!!
this should be the new thread that we all HAVE to report to every morning for the good or bad. i'm on day one right now. of couse i've been on day one like 4 times in the last two weeks.
the fact that we keep coming back, proves that we WANT TO MAKE US RIGHT!
i hope that this can be done.
aloha

Ted, good to hear from you! My anger, temper, and patience, have been an issue my whole life. However, today I am very much a different person...and I'm sober as well! Go figure!

If I can offer any advice or "words of wisdom" (LOL)....please let me know.

Tom

It can Saltman. And oh yes boys and girls, we never stop trying until we get it. And when we get it, we give it away, 'cause that's how we get to keep it

Ted and Salt,

You are both going to make it and we're here to help in any way we can. I know how tough it is to get sober, but I also know it can be done!

There's lots of support here, so keep posting!

Love, Anna

hi ted.

welcome back mate. sometimes stuff just happens to us hey, despite out best intentions.

hi also to sue, who was very generous in sharing your absence with us and letting us know you were away for a bit. thank you sue, you must be one strong lady and me thinks ted is lucky to have you. me thinks he knows this too, but being a bloke we may not always show it in the ways we need. it isnt his fault he is just a bloke haha.

now ted, back in the bus.
hugs to you both. shall send my email in PM if either of you wish to yak, vent or shoot the breeze

heh ted
good to see ya- anger huh? gee....rings a faint bell here....LOL!!!!!
me and a couple sponsees are workin the whole 'acceptance' thing. we're pretty sure that askin' god for some help is what we are gonna have to do. and accepting that we can see our passion as a legit part of our emotional spectrum.
anyway- great to see ya again. I am a whipped pup tonite- scorched earth framing-too many days in a row, too many yet to go. Me n god gotta talk 'bout this as well.
hugs
