Hey everybody,

Just wanted to check in and let you all know that everything is fine.
Been a while since I've had the time to read the post.
Just had a bunch of teens leave the house as we hosted a 16th birthday party for my daughters bestie(that's best friend so I'm told).

Anyways I'll read through the post and be back soon.
Just a quick scan and it seems everybody is concerned for our dear Snoozums.
Hope she checks in and makes everybody's night.

How nice of you, Bob, to host a 16th birthday party for your daughter's bestie.

You are a good guy.

We have a good size basement room(my man cave) that is great for entertaining a large party. It's all one large room so it's easy for folks to get from the couch and chairs to the food.lol
It was corn dogs, mozzarella sticks and pizza bits. Good food for teens anyways. Along with chips and a chocolate fountain fondue.
OMG, every try to clean dried chocolate up?

Croissant

Aww, Leigh you are a sweetie, thank you!xx

4 years. I'm so happy for you!

Ladybug, sorry to hear about your crash. I do agree with Dee about rehab. This yo yoing back to drinking is soul-destroying for you....and we all understand the vicious cycle. Please consider it might save years of pain continuing down this internal battle?

Bob, good to see you post....had chocolate fountain myself last night. I'm sure it was everywhere! Fun though!

Congratulations to you SoberLeigh on 4 YEARS!!!!

SW suggested rehab not me Crois

but I think it's something worth considering, ladybug - but I realise it's not an easy choice with babies and money factors...

at the very least now you need to do more than you're doing - that's not an admonishment at all, just a statement of fact...

This time of the year can be challenging, even for me. I must admit it's hard not to think of partaking in some of the holiday "cheer".
But, then I snap back to reality and remember how terrible my life was back before sobriety. Oddly enough I kind of find it amusing to be sober and alert while other may be partaking. I feel very solid in my sobriety, and will not attend any crazy party atmosphere.
I guess I'm thankful to live in a household where alcohol never really had a home, other than my problems.

I have secured a vacation week to use from Christmas till New Years.
We always stay in and make appetizers and watch marathon of Twilight Zone or Three Stooges.

SoberLeigh

Thanks, let!!!!

Goodnight, Julyers.

letitgo

Thanks, Bob!!!!!!

Oh, dear Ladybug, I'm so sorry to hear about your accident, but glad that you and your daughters are ok. I'm sorry your AV won out due to the stress, but glad that you're trying anew. Are there any local addictions services agencies? I found this most helpful when I was starting out. I attended a group and saw an individual counsellor for a few months. Keep trying and keep us posted here.
Leigh, wow, 4 years, amazing! When was the date?
Let, congratulations too, on your milestone.
I went to a lovely Christmas symphony concert tonight, very uplifting. We got to sing along with the choir, I love doing that!
I've had a fair bit of remorse today over getting the police involved with my ex, did I overreact, cause him worry with police showing up at his door? I don't know, I guess I should do what Larry always advised me. "Make a decision and stick with it!" It's done now and I meant him no harm, just wanted help to get the message of his boundary violation across and I guess if the police didn't think they should be involved in such a personal matter, they would have told me that.
Wow, tired! I'm up late, bed soon.

venuscat

Exactly Leshar, the police won't interfere in any way if they think it is unwarranted. I know it feels weird to have done this, but I really believe you made the right decision.

Leigh's anniversary is the 4th...I am honoured to be doing the milestone list in the 24-hr thread right now, so I have a few dates in my head.
I get some wrong, but I try!

I have texted Snooz twice, and she normally would have responded to the second one, if only to laugh at me. So, I'm officially worried.
I will call a bit later, and then I will try again tomorrow if our girl doesn't answer.

Dee74

you and Venus are absolutely right Leshar - the police won't involve themselves without good reason.

This guy was totally disrespecting your boundaries and being creepy. You did the right thing

venuscat

^^^Yes! (And I meant intervene, not interfere).

Croissant

Sorry, Dee, I was half asleep when I posted earlier today.

Leshar, I think that's how these things continue because women don't speak up. You had already established boundaries - for him to continue to ignore them, is disrespectful and honestly, a form of abuse.

Apart from all this, imagine if you were seeing someone new and this brief ex from over 2 years ago is popping gifts on your door, when you'd already declared this behaviour as unacceptable. Don't you dare feel bad for exposing him, Sweetie.xx

Snooz not around for a week is odd.

SnoozyQ

This made me cry. You are ALL amazing., caring loving wonderful people . Thank you so much xx
