My whine today is that I had pages and pages to catch up here....Queeny lives!!! 
You guys whine so fast, I just can't keep up. Nothing worse than a whiner dragging behind trying to keep up.
Well, still a tad sick, just sick enough that I get to order people around and point a lot and not have to cook because it makes me wheeze...wooo hooo, it's good to be Wheezing Queen of Whiners!!
Missed you all, keep on whining. Nothing changes if you don't whine!!!
P.S. Pattee, your little whiner guy really is a smile guaranteed.

Boy, Oh Boy...do I have a whine!
I was out of my room for a while yesterday...when I came back, the privacy curtains between the beds had been taken down "for cleaning". Swell! But, did they have to take both of them down at the same time!?! Now, the room is wide open! It has just confirmed that I don't like rooming with someone...and I definitely value my privacy! I am pissed!
I get up out of bed to go to the loo, get washed, and get dressed. But, how about those who have to be changed in bed. Good grief!

Rusty...Mom is 97.
Allport...I guess she's having good days and not so good days. I used to call her the Energizer Bunny...she really did seem unstoppable. Now, I'm thinking of her as Wonder Woman...her heart is so strong, it's what's keeping her going, even though the rest of her is starting to shut down. Sadly, with the Alzheimer's, her mind has been gone for a while now. What a terrible disease! I wish they would find a cure for it...particularly, since people are living longer and longer.

why is it alright wneh i travel ok
yet when i have consequetive days of not going ok, for VERY legitimate reasons (& theres more than one) it seems im the devils child...
why is it ok to voice how much i love an appreciate people & not so to tell people i dont appreciate a certain aspect of them..
dual sides of people is a reality of life & something we all need to learn to deal with
If im voicing how im Feeling it doesnt necassarily mean im feeling it because of any one person or group collective for that matter
does anyone take out even 5minutes to think im simply just FEELING a feeling?
well, thats all i have to say for now, cos i can say how i feel & i will continue to do so, ive just made 100 sangers for my fellow members at tonights meeting & now thats where im heading.
hope all here have a pleasant evening whatever they chose to do
& i have in no way attacked anyone with this post just stated the way i see things for me
which is what gets me well
as my sponsor said to me today" Eff what others think nik, it is none of your business & you need to learn to care less or you will forever get hurt girl!"
im here in recovery to get well not people please
thats my reality

You did a silly thing, but you're not stupid. We've all done it.
Beating yourself up like this is one sure way to end up in further trouble S.
Own it, learn from it, forget it.

least,
You are far from stupid. The disease has a mind of its own. You don't have to feel this way again. Let go of the anger at yourself. Turn that anger into determination to stay sober for today. I suggest now is a good time to sit down and write out a gratitude list of 10 things you have to be grateful for today. I am grateful you are here with us.
Love,
Lenina

OK, least...I must have missed something...'cause I went back several pages, and couldn't find any reference to a "stupid" thing you did. It must be something you posted somewhere else. Anyway, whatever has you hating yourself is not your "friend", and you need to learn to love yourself, or this "thing" that has you so down on yourself will chew you up, spit you out, and kick you to the curb. Am I getting warm here?
As far as feeling "worthless", I do believe "God don't make no junk." Not grammatically correct, but true, nonetheless. I don't think we've been brought all this way by mistake...there has to be a reason we've come together as survivors to share our ESH for a common purpose.
There probably isn't a website large enough for all of us to list all the "stupid" things we've done in our lives. Personally, if I continued to get bent out of shape everytime I proved to myself how much I still have to learn to avoid pitfalls, I'd look like a pretzel! Not a pretty picture!
Don't be so hard on yourself. You're among friends here, even if you may not feel "worthy" of our caring right now. We need each other, least. Never forget that.

It was a drinking buddies birthday yesterday and 11 eyes were on me as I came into the bar. ( One guy was so drunk he had 1 eye covered) I just went for a few minutes to give him a present I got for him. My whine is that they all looked at me like I was some kind of freak. It upset me but the last thing I wanted to do was have a beer.

I'd love to burn off some anxiety by walking the dogs but it's very cold and snowing here and I'm not taking them out in that. Maybe tomorrow. For now, I'm drinking chamomile tea and trying to relax and think of good things... like how I have a stronger intention to stay sober from now on, starting today.
