I put a chicken on the barbeque grill yesterday for almost 2 hours when I opened the lid that chicken was really pissed off.

Hello my fellow Juliers,

How is everyone doing?

ccam, glad you had a good weekend, it sounds absolutely lovely. And good on you for staying strong!

MrFixit, hope you enjoyed the game!

MidightBlue, well done on 7 days binge free, yay!

Hello to kahlia and HeadLump and everyone else!

I'm still going strong and enjoying the benefits of sober living, long may it continue. I'm off to do a bit of window shopping this afternoon.

Take care everyone!

Hey everybody!

Sorry I'm late with check-in today. We've been out visiting an old friend and have only just got back. She was very impressed with my sobriety but didn't say (like some have) 'but surely you didn't have that bad a problem?' No, she knew very well I had a problem! It felt good to say I was approaching 19 months! Hopefully, you'll all experience what that's like - you're well on your way!

Day 9 and still binge-free. Double digits tomorrow -yay!

Well done, MB, on 8 days!

Hope you had a good (and restful!) day at work, kahlia.

Hope the window shopping went well, Whole. I think you deserve a treat!

Hope the game was good, Fixy.

Petals, Eyes, and everyone else - I hope you're still going strong

Happy Monday all xxx

Hi everyone.

The Julyers are quiet today. Hope everyone is good and just worn out from a fun sober weekend.

Headlump and awholenewlife, glad you are both well today...

Everyone else, have a good Monday, stay strong.

I'll check in later.

Ah Kahlia, I have that empathetic depression as well. I can easily take someone's problem on my shoulder's as well. It's so hard, I wish I could help everyone. A blessing and a curse at the same time I guess. It's great to want to help, but when it brings you down in the process I guess that's not healthy either. I need the wand to find the happy medium!

Ah ok, that makes sense now HL. I was thinking a skip was a boat. I'm pretty good with most English lingo, but that was a new one for me! And just to make sure - footy=football=soccer? Bless you for dealing with us yankees lol.

Altoids - how cool! I've always wanted to try zip lining, looks like a ton of fun! But I am a big gal, and I think I would shoot down that thing fast enough to catch fire! Even with the parachute they make the fatties wear lol. Can't wait to hear how it goes! Maybe someday I will get around to being able to give it a go

CCam - would love if you would send some scallops my way as well! As long as they are sea scallops and not the little bay ones. I will send you lobster in return. I have been spoiled, grown up knowing several lobsterman so usually by the end of the summer I am tired of it (and it's free).

Hope everyone is doing well. At least Monday is over, one day closer to the weekend! Take care all!

I gave it to him like a pitbull with its shackels up!!! don't men know not to mess with a 5 foot nothing woman who hasn't even had her coffee yet LOL!!!

Double digits of no bingeing today - yay!!!!!

Up early and out for a quick jog. Went on my own today and didn't get lost!!!

Off to work in the shop soon to put out our Christmas cards! Yes, Christmas cards on 19th August! (but they are Cancer Research UK ones and are very very nice and extremely good value). Wonder if anyone will buy any today????

Hope you managed to brush your teeth, petals?

Hope you're not really getting flu, kahlia

Hope you're ok, Eyes

How's my Fixy?

Take care everyone. Happy Tuesday to all xxx

I have an appointment tomorrow with an addiction therapist see if she can figure out how to get me out of my Funk and help me with my continued sobriety.

That's wonderful, MrFixit. I, too, made a DRs appt. Hopefully we will both get the answers we need.

You're definitely not alone, Altoids - and what's even better is that people here really understand. It's a fantastic source of support

Good luck with the appointment, Fixy. I'm sure it will help

petals, being infurating is not something we men have to practice all that much. but maybe some of us... are over-achievers!
