Hey everyone! I'm new to this forum, or thread, whatever one may call it.

I'm 39 days sober and enjoying my life.

Just wanted to send out a quick intro!

Jojo

Welcome Jojo

Just got to the end of day 24. No desire to drink but having a huge sense of humour failure. Maybe a good nights sleep well help :-D

Officially halfway through my hitch. It's been a busy day and I'm looking forward to lying in my bunk and having some sweet sober dreams!

Congratulations milestoners! Whether you have days, weeks, months, years, or decades, every day sober is a great accomplishment.

Sign me in for 24 more!!!

3:25 pm GoM

There seems to be a lot of 'blahs' going around these days; I am noticing it more than any other winter season I can remember - that coupled with so many flu and cold bugs.

Howdy, do!!

Grab your sweet/savory tooth because today is Chocolate Covered Peanut Day! Here are some fun facts about the "Goober." And, oddly, Eminem.


The original chocolate covered peanut candy, Goobers, first sold in 1925. The word “Goober” was a common slang word for peanut.

Peanut M & M’s were not introduced until 1954. They were tan until 1960 when colors were first introduced.(Yellow, green, & red)

Rapper Eminem’s original stage name was M & M, his name was eventually changed for obvious trademark issues.

The initials M & M stand for the Forrest Mars from Mars Candies and Bruce Murrie from Hershey Chocolates.

In 1976 red M & M’s were replaced with orange. The red dye(red #2) was ruled to be a potential carcinogen. Red did not return until 1987.


For those in the cold and freezing, hope all are doing alright. So many people are grumpy! I had two people growl at me today for no reason- and I just smiled back.

Here in my happy, sober world. Plan to be for the next 24 as well.

6:49 PM. Winterland, USA.

Made it through the 2nd power outage. Found out it was the same problem when the first one went out
they said they fixed the problem and we should not have this problem.

My son and I are going to watch Voice and then take him to bed.

Then mommy time!!
