Hi Fools! Race was great thanks for asking! The Color Run was, well, colorful and I got splattered. It was excellent. And it's actually a gorgeous day here in NYS! :)

Getting ready for our Saturday night evening out and feeling strong. I thought of another tactic - ordering dessert since I never ever ever do that. I would rather have ordered 3 glasses of wine than spend money on dessert. Time to say YES to that dessert menu!!

Day 7 (consecutively). The 24 previous days do count for something, thank you to everyone who pointed that out. :)

Happy sober Saturday friends. I'll check back later.

Great work Kat,

Definitely earned a dessert tonight, you absolutely must replace some calories, it would be dangerous not to!. Have a well deserved, lovely sober evening.

Here we go, off for some root beer. :)
How is everyone else doing? AV quiet?

About to go to a BBQ with lots of drinking. Bringing my own pack of water. We will be there all day so I'm ready for my AV to have a temper tantrum. :) maybe I'll try laughing at it when it sneaks in to try and make me say yes to a drink. Or maybe that's weird! Oh well, wish me luck!

Glad the race was great Applekat!

I wish you the best 3777. I've heard once or twice that laughter is the best medicine :)

They decided my mom needed to have surgery today. Wasn't expecting that. Was worried not knowing if this morning was the last time I'd ever speak to her. Dad just called and she made it through. So far so good, thank GOD! I'm still a bit shaken up. It's been a roller coaster.

You're posts were very encouraging and I appreciate the support. Thank you all.

Dethklok rocks

Adna I'm going to try the Bach remedies

I did some retail therapy at sephora.com. Now having a hobbit marathon. Gotta get back to watching Smaug.

Jo san (Cantonese) fools, MADE IT!
Good to be back here, sun 100% humidity and a new man arrives on Lamma Island.
I cant thank you all enough for the support to get on the plane.
Sweaty palms was the worst of it.
Thinking I was sitting next to a Texan, y'all, and the plane full of fools, was a huge help mentally.
Just catching up on all the posts today, will get back to you all.....

Dee74 05-24-2014 06:45 PM

Glad you're back home obosob :)

topspin 05-24-2014 07:28 PM

You sound good Obo,

......that could be the name of a new song " New Man on Lamma Island"


That Texan may be related to our Izzy !

Top: it was izzy, well in my mind anyway (an idea she suggested). All you guys were on the plane... Great idea for a movie....ha
Breakfast with the wife now......
A lot to talk about and past hurts that need to be healed.
It's going to take some time but I'm up for it...!
Back later......

obosob 05-24-2014 07:42 PM

Top: it's a great name for a song. Maybe I'll try and write and post it here you guys can join in through the chorus...

Upward2Enlightenment 05-24-2014 08:14 PM
