What a gift, actually. To have a disease in which the cure is loving and being loved in return.

Sheesh. . The av is so MUCH louder after being fed after a period of abstinence. I caught myself saying the mantra "I'll never drink again. ." And before I could finish that little demon interrupted "I'm not ready to make that commitment so soon."
Crazy ass thinking.
I need a hobby and some kind goal.

Good Evening lovely littermates.
Copper - I was thinking about you today. I am enjoying the guitar. My fingers are starting to toughen up and I can play longer each session.
Erin, yes a hobby or activity really, really helps. It's amazing how much time we used to spend drinking, waiting to drink and recovering from drinking. Put duct tape over that AV's mouth.
Brynn, how was work?
Shannon we are waiting to hear his your return to the Old/new job went.
Tonks, how is it going? Did you re-energize after the family stuff? You mom continues in my prayers.
MG - did you get it all done today. I know you were off and running early.
Della, thanks for holding down the fort today.

Hi Della and sis B! ❤️
Hope everyone else is doing great (extra hugs for max and fabl) and tonks, your moms been in my prayers throughout the day.
Sis B, are we 60 days tomorrow? In some ways it seems like a lot longer...in the beginning I had to do it an hour at a time....I had no idea what I was doing! I was just holding on for dear life! If it wasn't for SR and you guys I wouldn't have made it...I would have been so lost! I'm so glad that awful beginning part is behind me, ugh!!!
Anyway... Love you guys! ❤️

Brynn, I would not have made it without this litter. Yep, 60 days tomorrow. We are following in the footsteps of great litter leaders. You said it, in the beginning it was hour by hour now its a lifestyle. We went from The Three Stooges to Royal Veggie Triplets - I'll take that over Cinderella anyday.
