Things are fine. Still sober. I now have a week off and hope to be productive. I still can waste time sober. I guess it is OK. Grateful to have my family, and sobriety intact. I had an icky drinking dream again. Guzzling Vodka from a bottle in my purse. Always sneaking it in a bathroom. I always wake up feeling a little sick when I have them. I am then thankful that it was just a dream., but I do have them quite often. So hard wired in my brain after thirty years. Or is there something else? Don't know? Well back to my jigsaw puzzle this AM as I can waste time easily. Good at it really Clean Closets ? Maybe later lol

Lushly, do the puzzle, save the closets for a day that was all ready ruined by work.

As to the dreams, I have had one, count it, one, since I quit almost seven months ago. I think the old HP is just giving me a breather or something, I don't know, but I am thankful. When I quit doing speed over eight years ago, I had them almost nightly for over a year, and I was still drinking heavily then.

Hey miners. Just hanging around. Feeling awful. What the heck is wrong with me. I did recovery work yesterday. I felt OK,. that is the best I ever feel. I know that I am bored and self centered. I don't want to go back to drinking. I just want some ease and comfort. What the H E double hockey stick is wrong with me. I feel so yucky....... I am sorry that this is not an upbeat recovery post. Those are the ones that help me the most, but I am full of self rejection in every aspect of my life today. Thanks maybe venting will help it pass. I know it will pass ..........God let it pass........ the lush is feeling low....

Welcome, that is the greatest Christmas gift you can give yourself, a life.


So I start the new year off good, at ten AM Sunday I secretary my first meeting as part of a year commitment. They even gave me keys to the place, my Mom laughed her butt off upon hearing that her eternally atheistic son had keys to a church. Should be really good for me, help me work through my social anxiety and get involved more in the fellowship. Take it easy clowns!!!

Congratulations Camedown! Awesome!

Lushly, what step did you work on? There is a lot of stuff we stir up when doing stepwork! Getting through that pain leads to growth.

I'm slowing step 9 work & this old timer woman said something about liking to sit in her pain, too. Time for me to just do it! We can both keep moving forward!

OK I'm here, I made it, sober and all. Kinda had to, I gotta secratary my first meeting tomorrow morning. Anyways, happy new years all, here's too a full year of love, joy, and sobriety for all of us. Thank you guys for all your friendship and support over the last seven+ months, it's been quite a ride, and it's only beginning. I recieved a text from my daughter at midnight saying "Happy New Years Dad, I love you", now that's how I like to start this thing. Keep on fighting the good fight MINErs.
