Checking in on day 5

Just dropping by to say hello. Hope everyone is having a good booze free day. I'm exhausted but then I always am so nothing too new there really. Thanks for all the help over the last few days, it's helped me more than you know.
Peace

Congrats on DAY 5! I'm on DAY 11 and I feel exhausted, too! I tell myself, at least I'm not exhausted AND hung over! Silver lining, my friend.

Congrats on day 5 FuntimeFranky! Todays a great day here...just got back from a great workout and I'm feeling positive.

DH and I are setting up the outdoor lawn furniture this afternoon. I've always loved creating an outdoor space, lots of flower pots, comfy chairs...all waiting for our first BBQ of the season.

Make it a great day everyone!

Hello there CT... I have a new roof garden and recently bought a portable BBQ. I think they are designed for camping, it's like a chrome carry case thing. Really inexpensive, I found it on Amazon. Anyway, my daughter tried it out a couple of weeks back (we had some freak warm weather) and it was great! We have a traditional one in the garden but I was really surprised with how well this worked and how much you can actually cook on it.

I'm having trouble leaving the house at the moment due to anxiety. Hoping it warms up soon so I can go on the roof for some fresh air and maybe a burger lol. I ordered some bamboo for my large pots. Can you recommend anything suitable for pots that needs little work but gives good coverage? Something that flowers would be nice. I don't know much about gardening but I'll be doing the pots on the roof myself. Hope you don't mind me asking!
Thanks

Oh, yeah, there will be those. Heaven help the challenges while we kick their behinds, though! ;-)

Everyday has been really hard up through day 4. If I have another day like day 4 again, I'm gonna just have to get in the car and drive around, find something to do!

But yesterday (Day 5) was totally different. I was at ease. I had a couple of moments there, but they went as quickly as they came. I know every day won't be that easy, but it sure was nice to have a little rest after white knuckling it for 4 days! Here's to more days like yesterday!

Keep on keepin' on!
