Hey guys, just stopping by during break....hope y'all aren't too mad at me 4 drinking yesterday. I don't know why I still feel shaken up about seeing what's his face.....it's been over 10 yrs but I've always gone out of my way 2 avoid running into him - I'm barely even on social media! Anyway, at least I handled it well, because if I had been a bitch to him he could have used that to play victim like he always did. ANYWAY!!! Gonna make it thru the day, get some comfort food then go home & hang out w/ you guys! Thanks for being here

Good morning class!

Good night, Phoenix. I'm proud of you for moving forward. We will be here when you need us. Sleep well.

Good morning, Samantha. I'm kind of shocked about the chocolate statement. I think that I could live on chocolate alone. Heck, sometimes I do. Have a great day!

Purplrks3647- Good morning. How could anyone hate you? Also, this is a no judge zone. We are here for you when you need us. Love you.

Have a fantastic day, people! Love you all.

Good morning friends! Dentist, check! (Yup my hygentist hates me.). At least I'm not getting root canals and crowns or anything yet, I wonder what age that starts. I need to schedule a normal physical, too.

Anyway, wishing you all a peaceful day.

B (hi), sleep? SLEEP? HA! In respect to my last postings- brain has decided that it will begin dealing with stuff NOW. Not later, not after sleep, NOW. (ha!).

Morning all! Day 6 ... feeling pretty good this morning. I was really moody over the weekend so hopefully that is behind me. The first week after drinking is always hard, mentally, for me. New dining room furniture gets delivered this morning so that's kind of exciting. Hubby moved the old stuff to our basement last night and wouldn't you know our dog peed on the area rug that is in the dining room. Grrrr
Trying to stay positive today.

Wishing you all a wonderful Monday!

Good morning everyone! I hope everyone is doing well. I wanted to let you guys know that I will be stepping away from SR for a little while to focus soley on AA. I am going to try to hit 2 meetings per day for a little while (it's my goal). I need to step it up because I've identified some weaknesses. I need all face to face support I can get! Love you all and keep up the great work! Xo

Well, make sure your brain knows you need to sleep.

Kris in the 24 hour thread posted this. I stole it. It fit some conversations I've been having.

Day 7. Prime number!

Bought a beautiful piece of tuna that I'm going to sear for late lunch/early dinner. I'm all excited about that. Work in a few hours. Not as excited about that.

It's important to face and understand our past, Phoenix, but never forget that it's the present that's most important. Wishing you the best as you continue moving forward with your recovery.

Despite all my ice cream jokes, Samantha, I really don't eat sweets very often. I've always been a salty snack kind of guy. But those dark chocolate peanut butter cups jumped off the shelf and into my basket at the store the other night. They're miniature ones but I ate way too many last night. Have a wonderful day!

No one here is going to be mad at you for drinking, Purplrks. We've all been there. But I hope you'll give us a chance to help you before you take that drink next time. Wishing you the best today.

My avatar is wondering how many days it has left to live, Bobbieka.

Glad the dental appointment went well, Applekat.

Congrats on day 6, Ladybug. Maybe the dog thought you'd moved the furniture expressly to widen his range of possible pee surfaces.

We'll be here, KiKi. Hope you'll take a few seconds to check in every few days at least. Good luck with your continued recovery.

Going to go face the day now. Don't drink. It's not a wise decision.

The change will occur on 146 as 145 was my old sobriety "record."

I have some ideas for possible avatars you might choose if you need some help deciding:

You know, I can't even like your post, Casey. And I like every post.

You know you're going to have to hit that thanks button eventually. It's going to be this itch in the back of your mind until you do. Just get it over with.

I'm pretty sure I am not going to be that nice. Just saying.

Mornings class. Taking a quick break at work and posting on the mobile site. Yay me!! I'm embracing change.

Bobbie - thanks for sharing. I'm so thankful that you survived and are here today. If you hadn't, I would have missed out on meeting you. I (we) are better for knowing you, that's for sure!! You have come such a long way in a year. A role model for the rest of us

Casey - you never disappoint on wit.

Purple - No judgement. Stand up, dust off. March on.

Jemma - keep up the good work. Hope things are quiet on the ex front.

Happy to be sober today.
