I'll end this with a variant of a line I just heard from a Harry Potter movie I watched with the kiddies tonight. "We may all be from different places but we have one heart." When I heard that line I thought of all of you. Thanks to one and all for being here and offering support for nearly perfect strangers. :ghug2

morning everyone!!
I want to go to the flea market with ya Rusty. I love looking through old stuff.
I just want to carry this over to the new thread......... because anano you are really doing good. I will pray your HP guides you to the right person. but remember nothing, absolutely nothing happens in God's world by mistake. An as Ken said we are all together here, somehow we found each other........thats meant to be! " thanks Ken for the reminder
quote from alcoholics anonymous big book edition 1.....page 449
heading out for a few hours .....see you all later xox

I wani will aim for one a day.. evening ones suit me best as i'm fine during day, weather here is beautiful, i live near gorgeous beaches i plan to make good use of... but yes attending a meeting a day is a very good idea, hopefully i'll find someone i can ask as a sponser..
We may all be from different places but we have one heart." !
Nothing, absolutely nothing happens in God's world by mistake. Until I could accept my alcoholism, I could not stay sober; unless I accept life completely on life's terms, I cannot be happy. I need to concentrate not so much on what needs to be changed in the world as on what needs to be changed in me and in my attitudes.

As Bee says: HI HONIES, I"M HOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :day6 (and freezing, I might add...) Too bad I missed the banter about pay pal, being bought and the like, you funny ducks!
Well, off to a meeting, but wanted to send a special hug to all of you, particularly IQ and Ken. And thanks Ken, for the HP (Harry Potter, not Higher Power) quote. ....Sheesh, I never though about that..our HPs working through HP??? Too much for my caffeine starved brain to contemplate this early....
Back later...:ghug3

Good morning friends!
Having my morning coffee and trying to shake the cobwebs loose from my brain. There is frost on the ground this morning! Brrr! I came back to bed and got under the covers to type to you all.
I am going to pick up my sponsor at the airport today - I'm a bit nervous over the drive - Toronto highways scare me a little.
I hope everyone has a great day. Be back soon.

It's beeeeeutiful day here in MN. Sun is just up and the skies are blue.
Hi D, B, Anon, Stone and RZ.
Nelc - In honor of the brown chicken I'll be having an omelet made from brown eggs this morn. Only problem is....the omelet is brown too! Not too appetizing but it goes well with the color of my coffee. Oh and thanks for the quote.

Sorry i havent been posting...
I have been having a rough few days.... very up and down... im in the process of doing my step 4 and although i put it away cos i was struggling and things seemed better for a while... it's been niggling me from under the bed where it has been laying in wait for me...
I havent drank but have been escaping from myself alot recently...
Anyway... last night i made afew changes sooooooo
Today i have woken up refreshed and looking at the world with a new out look that i can hopefully keep
Last night i went to a friends and although i didnt stay too long (cos they were getting more drunk i as i was with them and becoming aggressive, not with me) I got my hair coloured and cut.... so i no longer have grey roots... or the distinguished look i call it..
I have brown hair again with burgandy streaks through it... and where as my hair runs nearly the length of my back i had about 6/8 inchs cut off it...
I feel like a poodle now with my hair in its pony tail
So what else could i do with my new look... i know... get my friggin assignments for uni done... well.... I DID ONE yeahhhhhhh.... its only taken 4 months (which it has been overdue) but at least its done....
2 more to go... but they will be easier now this one is out the way
Sorry this post is so long... (unlike my hair now)
Hava a great day folks... i do come in and read... i just cant always verbaise whats going on wiht me... i do talk to Donna though and let her know i am ok... she's a good en you know??????????...
Nelco: thankyou for the message here's me.... im back!!!!!!!
p.s whats with the new smilie thing... 3 limit?

louis, always was 3 smileys per post 
guess you just never had reason to reach max per post before.
You sound great my friend. Brown w/burgundy highlights, that's what my daughters hair was at one time, and I liked it. Now its completely dark brown and she has her extensions in.
Going to try to work on getting my pictures posted on craigs list to sell some things. I don't know what the heck I am doing though. Oh well, got to start somewhere.
Louis, if that 4th step is messing with you from under the bed, maybe its again time to pick it up. Just a hour a day maybe until you complete it. And don't forget a prayer before starting it each time, might help a bit. Ask your sponsor what she thinks.
