Wow this thread moves fast, lively bunch.
Janes ear ,hey, I just barged in and haven't been kicked out yet , so far we're in
Too shabby yes I picked my screen name the day I found SR , it was at the time an imperative statement to myself , didn't exactly roll off the fingers when signing on so a good reminder to myself , happy to say it's more a declarative now

Or maybe just some maple syrup, that would work, too. And then we wouldn't have to lie to Shabby. Guiltless Sweetness.

You all have a wonderful way with each other.

I'm fine, thanks.
Tuesday night is my tai chi night. I was going to say that I come home tired from it but that's not exactly accurate. Hard to describe. I am ready for sleep, though.
I've had a lifelong struggle with insomnia. One of the reasons I signed up for tai chi (I began in May) was to see if it would help. It has -- immensely.
The other reason I signed up is quite tied to my alcoholism. I was in San Francisco in October of 2012 for a family wedding. I had time to myself on Sunday morning so I went to Golden Gate Park. In that area between the De Young Museum and the other one (science), there was a large group of people doing tai chi.
It was one of the most interesting sights I've witnessed. The people were so graceful, their movements so fluid. I've shared this on SR before, but as I sat and watched them, I said to myself that I'd like to try that some time.
And instantly, this other, terrible voice in my head said "And you never will."
It is horrifically amazing what those mean, belittling voices -- our voices -- can say to us. Like "drink." Or "you'll never stop drinking." Or "and you never will."
So signing up for tai chi -- 22 months into my sobriety -- was one more way for me to make that voice even more powerless.

I was doing pretty good, sometimes just bingeing twice a month, now I'm going for complete sobriety.
I have enough 'practice'; I realized I'm an alcoholic in dec last year, so its taken a few months to get a groove; I thought it would be like " I'm an alcoholic, now I'll stop and everything will be great!"
Ummm, it didn't quite go like that....
I didn't drink everyday or in mornings so I assumed I was in the clear, WRONG
Nice work Jen lmao I've been called worse !!
