Nel that is such a powerful story. You and your mom seem like you have been through a lot. <3

WalkingwithGod happy day 50!

Grace I like how you said you had to give yourself a talking to. I have to do that a lot too. Especially after the boston bombing here in the US, a lot of those victims lost limbs. <3 my hearts go out to them. I am so grateful to have mine.

Midnightblue I know ranting helps me a lot. I'm just getting to know you but you seem like a great person. And it's clear everyone here really cares about you. So keep sharing. *hugs*

Dee you always have great things to share. I'm on a journey to love myself right now. I thought I did, but last night I realized that I'm not quite there right. Still working at it.

DrakeCKC You hang in there too. We are here ready to share our experiences. I found out that sober emotions are quite miraculous. Even the "bad" ones. I've learned so much about myself. And it feels great to feel and not be so numb all the time. You can do it. and you'll be SO glad you did.

I hope everyone's monday is going well. It's a nice day here in Southern Arizona. A beautiful clear blue sky with a few white puffs of cloud. <3

Good morning to my Undies

Nothing exciting to report, but that’s okay. I’m in work right now and it’s cold. I slept well which is always a bonus, other than that, same old, same old.

Sorry about making a mistake in your age in my previous post Midnight, you’re just 30 something at the end of the day, unlike me who is 40 ten and a few if any-one asks, lol.
I am really pleased that you are going to have a word with your doctor re your depression, why keep on fighting it on your own if you can get help, just like our recovery, the more support the better. Go for it girl!

Have a great day today Nel.

Drake. You’re doing well and I’m definitely hanging on in there right with you. I manage to deal with life’s ups and downs far more rationally without the brain fog,

BF, I hope school went well last night. By the way how did Mother’s day go? Did you take your own soda?

Hi Nicky, lovely post from you there.

Hi Tanja, I loved those words you wrote for our M.B ‘ We will love you until you love yourself, how very apt, I am going to right that line down so I don’t forget it.

Wise words R1ck.

A lovely post from you too Bloss, I remember you asking that question about age and I think I may have replied telling you about the friend I have in the Hatzers thread who posts from time to time, she’s 81 and a total inspiration. I keep telling myself that age is but a number, the mirror keeps telling me different, but I’m not listening to it!!

Just read your next post Midnight and what better treat is there than a day of Peace, if only, if only I could have one. I think I may put a request in for the same for my birthday. Flowers too, I love flowers.
Thank you for being here on this journey with us and for sharing those wonderful, inspiring poems you write. XXXX

O.M.g Steve, boys and their toys, lol. You deserve it though, so enjoy.

Melivin, those bombings were atrocious, such an unneccessary evil, we just have to count our blessings and we do have many when we think about things logically.

Anyway, I suppose I’d better go and do a bit but I’ll be back.

Stay safe and sober

Gxxx

Just for Today: Mistakes aren't tragedies. But please, Higher Power, let me learn from them!

Hi, again, Undies! Thank you so much for congrats - you've saved my Birthday and my positive outlook! Here's my Huge Thank you to all of you:

It's such a special sober day.
Because you've brought me gift of love.
You're so many miles away
And yet you keep my mind above.

Above my worries and my fears.
It warms my soul like a candle.
I'm free from blues, I'm free from tears
Whatever happens - I can handle.

Who said that miracles don't happen?
You prove the opposite, my friends!
My day is better than imagined.
And mood is up and still ascends)

Have a great day)

MB - Happy Birthday7 Congratulations on seven months of sobriety I think a day of peace and treating yourself to flowers sounds wonderful. Your poem touched me. I hope you have a wonderful day! You deserve to be happy and putting yourself first is not always selfish!

I second what Bloss said about Grace post♥ ...I often wonder how does she do that??...I have such a short memory/attention span most of the time, Its scary...lol.. Hopefully that will get better with my sobriety...Love your post Grace totally agree with Bloss♥
