Talking Stay Sober Here Weekender Thread Oct 24 - 26!

Sober buses lined up! Hope on! Room for everybody!

Share what you are doing to stay sober.

Share what you are doing in general.

Post a pic... a joke or two... a music link or three! Just don't drink!

Show how you are living sober this weekend!!!

To quote Nonsensical...
"I quit drinking many times and started living sober only once."

Three... two... one... Welcome to your sober weekend!!!!!

well, helluuuuuuuu,
went hunting this AM, got there too late - they were about 15 yards from my spot as I walked in, should have been a good hour earlier - slept in, going out in a couple hours till dark, hunt from ground in morning and tree in afternoon - hate going up a tree in the dark, easier getting down tho,
have to wash clothes again with scent free soap and descent everything every time, I tell the wife , no kisses or hugs because I already took my shower, can't have any type of scent, especially wife scent

I am hoping to spend some time meditating this weekend. I am not sleeping well. Maybe get some exercise in. I can't believe I am shotgun this week! At any rate, I am in. I am still sober andI look forward to reading how and what everyone is doing.

just want to say, there is someone posting disguised as weasel, don't be fooled...

last night I listened to two owls bantering back and forth, there is a heron near where I hunt and a bunch of other birds and critters, hunters know the smaller they are the more noise they make,
yesterday afternoon I took a walk in the rain in the local forest. took my GPS tracker to see how it performed, I walked into a place I never went before to see if gps would track me. I got about a mile into the woods and then tried to find my way back without gps. I came out almost exactly where I went in from a different heading. then walked back to jeep. I checked the GPS and my start and end point were about 500 yards apart on the tracker - the same spot! Was good to be able to walk into a rainy forest and find my way back after wandering around without sun to help. I am getting my sense of direction and time back. I used to be like Mr. Spock. I could tell you what time it was within a minute or two at any given time. I'm getting better again.
enjoy the weekend

Save me a seat please? Just planning on getting some shopping done and then chilling all weekend at home with hubby and Dad, doing some cooking, trying a new recipe, and of course playing my video games AND not taking a drink

I have the day off tomorrow,
People have been getting uppity at work so i think it's time to avoid some of the stuff thats been flying round and concentrate on making my room and home comfortable .
I might also go for a walk in the park if it seems nice enough , although i think it's going to be wet and windy tomorrow .
Tum te dum days sober and another one today thank you ,

Brain, who is the weasel poseur? Nice job making it out of the woods. In the rain.

Mec, are they uppity at you or just in general? A walk in the park sounds good.
I've heard that there is supposed to be a partial eclipse today. Around rush hour I heard. If it isn't raining maybe I would be able to see it.

Waiting is hard. For the day to be over. For the weekend to start. I need to stop trying to push the days to pass faster. My second pantry cabinet is coming saturday. Guess I can put it together.

Jumping on for the ride. Expecting house guests from Dallas this weekend....always enjoy them. Should be some new folks on the bus this weekend. I'm hoping for the bus to be jam packed. Happy Friday Eve!
