stoney,

maybe next time, ask those helpful drunks,

"hey bub, could you give me a hand!" lol

Bee
I love eating conch, especially conch salad, yummy. I have two beautiful conch shells, one a king conch shell, a native fisherman gave them to me.
that reminds me of calamari!

Squid, Bee, ever wonder way back when,

who was the first fisherman to catch one of those ugly things, and say,

"Yum! Dinner!"

Bee, amybe the next time you go, wear Flats! lol

pretty kids there ken...

and row, keep pad'n!

Now that anono has come out of the nursing closet....just curious and if you don't mind my inquiring, anono, why did you change careers?
morning all...

my change of careers is a fairly long story... time to skip now if you want..

my partner was injured and became permanantly disabled when i was pregnant with my second child.. it was his back.. so he could still function, just limited activity...
this set a whole chain of events off.. i was studying at the time to get my degree in nursing , i had gone through the old hospital based training.. and if you wanted any future in nursing you needed a degree.. when we found i would be the sole income provider i thought 2 things.. why am i doing all this study for a job i already am sick of? and 2. if i am going to do all this study why not make it for something better than what i am doing?

so i switched degrees then spent the next 4 years travelling to the university that offered my course,,it was a 4 1/2hr drive each way the whole thing snowballed so quickly we never had a chance to look at moving before i started.
everything fell into place.. a place for me to rent a room... car available (ours wouldnt have made the trip) , one word during a phone conversation to university that allowed my entry into the course.. all was meant to be...

anyway i did it! but my relationship, which was pretty flimsey to begin with didnt make the journey.




i hope backs and legs are feeling better today????

hello to all... i'm going to try and do some work

can i ask a question that may or may not be answerable ... i am now 2 months sober... the first few weeks i felt fantastic! great! life is brilliant.. the last 3-4 weeks i have been so tired... flat... struggling to get through the day.. could that be a symptom of withdrawal??? did anyone else feel it?

Hi anono...

I dont know so much about it being a symptom of withdrawl... sorry i dont have the answer for that...

As for feeling flat... tired and struggling to get through the day... i think thats quite normal... well... is in my case...
I think its just my body and head getting used to living without a drug/drink in it... although t was hard to begin with for me... I knew things would get better... i have really good days and some hard days... but they are all 100 0/0 better than the days before i gave up.
I was told its like we go through a grieving process and some depression... i dont know if this is everyone... but its what i was told and it was right for me...

It does get better though... things will even themselves out and you will start to get energy and want to do things again... like people say here... our bodies and minds take time o heal... but they do if you give them the time they need..

Paitience is the answer i guess... i dunno...
