Altoids - so very sorry to hear about your niece; your Mom is fortunate to have you in her corner; hopefully your will recognize her problem and look to you for guidance.

Erfra - stay close to your SR friends; we are here to see you through this storm and to remind you that drinking never improves a situation or solves a problem (and most often and very quickly causes the situation or problem to worsen even if it is only in our ability to respond to them). Stay strong, get to your AA meeting tonight and call your sponsor or other support contact. Rooting for you, erfra.

CSM, how lovely - a new rescue pup; Finneus Winchester is a very fortunate dog.

Thanks, Bim. That was just what I needed to hear today.

(Maybe something good is brewing, Bim, with an unusual foreboding; fingers crossed).

24 more please. I had a close call with the AV as recently as Saturday so I sympathize with those who are struggling right now. Stay strong and make it through one more day.

Prayers for all,
calico

I hope you feel better Viking. And I'm praying for your niece, Altoids. Addiction is cunning, baffling, powerful... and for me it takes a Higher Power to overcome it. My heart goes out to you both. And congratulations to the celebrants, and to everyone who is sober, just joining us, or coming back after a slip - God knows I've had a few slips in the past myself. Love to all from the Gulf of Mexico!!!

After last night’s light show, I’m feeling a little muted. It’s peak fall foliage time where my son lives, which is very leafy and all that jazz. Here are some autumn leaves, for thinking of ones we miss:



I wish you a safe & peaceful night, & I hope to see you here again tomorrow!
