All in this together Leshar

No better. I can't eat, shower. Bird is home.
Don't know how to get by minute by minute.

Hang on, Leshar. Try and force yourself to take a shower. I know it's cliché but you will feel better. Have a long chat with your bird, my dogs are my favorite conversationalists. Is there a movie you love to watch? Do you have ice cream? Indulge yourself for a few hours. Is there no emergency admission you can get? I don't know how the medical system works for you but please try. Know I am thinking of you, care immensely about your well being and am thinking of you. Sending a big hug...after you shower, LOL.

I'm with Lulu Leshar - sometimes the only people we can rely on to get us up and moving is ourselves.

Have that shower, eat something, give the bird some attention.

Little things can really help

Went to see Big Hero 6 with the family. Good movie.

Watching Patriots and drinking cherry/pomegranate seltzer.

Well done Resolute

Thanks SW.
Walked the dog. Took a trip to the grocery store.
Now it's time to kick back and enjoy some TV.
Odd how sometimes drinking will still enter my mind even after 16 months.
Those thoughts are no where close to the power they first had a year ago.

Hiya lovely Julyers

I'm so sorry to hear you are still struggling Leshar. The sooner you get this help , the better . Just know ALL of us here are in your corner and we ALWAYS will be .

I've been very busy, I'm still on my 30 day cleanse and have lost kilos , I'm going to do another 30 . I feel great :-)


Cant believe Christmas is a month today ! It goes faster every year , i swear .

We had a huge Costco store open up here last week. It's good to have competition between woolworths and Coles and the petrol stations. Keeps them on their toes.

We are not doing a big Christmas this year and I'm looking forward to going to Townsville to see my sister with Mum & Dad & my younger sister .

Bit nervous about the plane flight tho :/

Hugs to you all

Hi everyone,

Haven't been on in awhile due to our move, but it was great catching up with all of your posts this morning Leshar, really thinking about you and praying things turn around for you. Bob, hope you hear good new soon. Hi to everyone else!

So we are moved and in our new house. Really loving it, but the unpacking and TRYING to get organized is really wearing on me. I am sitting here looking at stacks of boxes in every room, the baby is due in 2 weeks and her room isn't even done. She will be sleeping in a bassinet by our bed for the first couple of months, but it would still be nice to have some kind of room put together for her. Family/friends have all offered their help, but there are certain things only we can organize, you know? I don't want people just unpacking things and throwing them in closets/drawers. Oh well, as they say, it will all get done.

They are calling for 4-8 inches of snow on Wednesday so should make for an interested Thanksgiving?! Hope everyone is having a good day. Hugs to all

resolute50

Yup, we are looking at getting a snow storm Wednesday.
That should make travel dangerous for some.
Sometimes not working for a living has it's advantages.

Glad you're all moved, LB.
I can certainly understand not wanting all my stuff just tossed around.

Soberwolf

England has had a cold snap frost on rooftops etc should last couple days

Kind of disappointed tonight. Got an email rejection today from a job I thought was a good fit.

Dee74

I'm sorry this is such a protracted process Bob.
My best wishes to you man

Leshar

Bob, I'm sorry to hear your news. Keep on applying.

I'm thinking of drinking again. I can't cope with the not being able to drink. The anxiety, hopelessness is crippling. I want to drink there it is. I won't today, but I'm on the cusp. I just don't know if I can keep going. Almost 17 months. Thought I would be so much better.
I'll try and play the tape through for the rest of today.

Soberwolf

Hang in there Leshar have you ever considered something like a charity sky dive or a 5 mile run for charity im thinking about this myself ?

my brother done it a few years bk and said it was awesome

sorry leshar

Dee74

I can guarantee you it will solve nothing and it will make you feel even worse than you do now.

I'm scared it may even drive you to do things you've only thought about so far.

I'd much rather see you walk into the ER and be committed quite frankly Leshar.

Honestly I think you've gotten as far as you can by yourself. You really need to do something for yourself now and ask for help. Today.

resolute50

Today is 16 months sober. Longest I have gone without a drink in many years.
You know it's a strange night. The Wednesday before Thanksgiving is a big drinking day/night.
Even have friends on Facebook getting wasted tonight.
It's always nice to enjoy Thanksgiving dinner without a hangover.

Dee74

Hope everyone who celebrates Thanksgiving has a good one
