Do Pistachios go well with Banana? Well, here's some Pistachio Ice Cream, so you can decide. Always love your Banana Cake recipes, Strat!

5:28 p.m. where I'm at, and 24 hours into a Sober Sunday sounds like just the ticket. So everyone go on a Picnic, 'cause you don't need a ticket!

I have a feeling that strat will say pistachio goes perfectly with banana!

How is one supposed to stay on a diet with all of this cake and ice cream though?

Thank you Venus. I really appreciate the support from you, and this group today. The day is nearly over; I made it through sober. Slept a lot. Already, I feel much better. It is pouring rain and I can sleep more if needed, read and stay on here as much as possible. I don't know what will happen; though things have taken a turn for the worse for my mother I will stay hopeful. They haven't decided on the treatment yet.

I am so glad to have this group; it really is a blessing. Thank you for helping me back up. Checking in for another 24 @ 6:02 pm Saturday

Love

RBJ

Woke up this morning sad and disappointed. I have Monday off. I want to start again. I can't help my mother if I drink. I can't look for a new job if I drink. I just don't want to go back to that existence. For so many reasons. I want to stay sober. It's August 20th at 7:41 am

24 for me

Off to bed to read for a while, hoping for some sleep.. Nights can be horrible, I'm surrounded by people but so lonely..

Peace all,
