Hi all
Not much going on apart from the Horrific incident here in London, really disgusting barbaric act.

Weather Cool grey and dampish, London summer I suppose

Out tomorrow for a big do, Av nagging at me a bit but never going to surrender, I am missing nothing, cant imagine being trapped in that cycle of obsession/hangover/remorse again. Sober life can be strange at times, but it does seem to get better and better the further you go. Read a very good book, bought from Kindle store alcohol lied to me by Craig beck, honest and straight to the point. day 496 woo hoo.

Back. Had a lovely night, really really like the way I felt, sat in a bar with a band for 3 hours chatting away, kind of forget I was even drinking anything, My Brother was really tanked and that just made me feel even better, cause seeing anyone drunk only makes me stronger. Clarity, real raw feelings and I drove home. Cannot be beaten, love it. Day 497..over

Hi Gang! All's well here. Rainy Memorial Day weekend, spending time with the fam and cleaning up the house. No thoughts of alcohol. It really seems like a foreign substance to me now...hard to explain, but I think my mind has been re-programmed to simply ignore all references to it somehow. I see it on television, my mind just blocks it out. Not a bad thing!
Oh, almost forgot to mention, I got a brief message from PCL the other day! She told me she's fine and still sober, and to tell you guys she thinks of everyone often and to send love to all! I was so happy to hear she's doing well!
NBC, please type a line and let us know you are ok! As Nel mentioned, we hope and pray you weren't affected by the tornado..sending love and prayers your way xo
Nel, Sean, DD, Limbo, Kat..so happy that you are all in a good place..strong and sober. Hope everyone has a great weekend!
Love to all
Kim xo

I wouldn't give the Last Rites yet Nel - this is still one of the more active older monthly groups

People do move on - for a variety of reasons - I hope all Januarians are doing well

DD, big happy 500!!!! Look forward to follow the progress on the next 500 :-) Nel sweetie, we might be a bit less frequent on here these days but like Fixit and DD said, I am here for the long run as well :-) I have to do the count and see if I am close to the 500 as well....

Have a lovely Monday all!

Hi Class! I'm doing very well and enjoying reading your posts and inspirational thoughts. My daughter and her boyfriend had a party to celebrate his graduation from the police academy and I met the boyfriend's parents for the first time. I'll admit I was tempted to have a glass of wine but I didn't. I also didn't drink too much and act foolish and embarrass my daughter. I remembered all the conversations we had, I didn't slur any words, and I didn't bump into anything. And I didn't wake up the next day and feel ashamed. Not drinking is soooo wonderful!
I had some concerns about taking anti anxiety meds for a dentist appt. I have a terrible fear of the dentist and I needed 2 crowns. So I took the meds and had "laughing gas". I was so relaxed I woke myself up snoring and I don't remember a thing. I was afraid I would get strong cravings but I haven't so I guess it was OK.
The sun finally has started shining again and it is supposed to be a warm week. Congratulations to all our successes!! Have a great week.

You are an inspiration, Katrinka! I too have a huge fear of the dentist. I had a bad experience my last time in the chair and haven't returned since.
I'm glad you were able to get the work done without pain. I wouldn't worry about the meds. You needed them for a specific purpose, and it's over and done.
Onward and upward!

Good Thursday morning (or whatever time it is in your part of the world). I have said a prayer for all of you, my wonderful classmates. I hope you're feeling the love!
