Class of February 2016 Part 22
Life was pretty bleak this time last year. Now it's full of opportunities and many many happy times. I feel very fortunate to have got another run at this.
Happy weekend folks ❤️

OOTT- you keep killing me - "and all the Beatles copyrights"!!
We have our Feb 5K this morning. A later start- 10am- compared to the others so pics will all be in daylight. I love the big photo album I have built since last summer, and all the framable ones thanks to Shutterfly.
Yesterday was just...ugh. Worried about money and just kinda grr. Did a little retreat into self and a long nap.Was ok by the time Cliff came over and got support....we are getting into even the shared money territory so I am ratcheting down that occasional panick-y feeling. He told me last night he has a proposal date, time, second picked out. Gee, that's helpful for getting on my manicure routine
Jeni- way to go!
Happy Sat all-

The 5K was great! It was at Piedmont Park which is the biggest in metro Atlanta and my fave. It was way more low key than the Hot Chocolate!! And re the 15K......probably not. I have run a marathon and done a couple of halves but I imagine that I can only get him up to a 10K, which I would like to do by the end of the year It's fun running them together so I don't know if I really care about continuing to add distance on my own - though I'm sure I'd have a cheerleader.
In Mar we are doing one to benefit a child at his church who has cancer, and in Apr we decided to do one for rescue dogs
Just up from a solid nap and off to work in a bit. One of those weird muggy warm "winter" days here.
What is everyone up to this weekend? (I ask now that it is over, almost! sorry!)
Busy week ahead- then....anniversary week! I am excited for the days off that just got officially approved because we are doing a staycation at a cool little B&B in town. Dog booked at the doggie spa for those days.
OT- how are you?
Lee- ditto?
Say hello everyone-

Happy love day all - otherwise known as Happy Tuesday, happy sober day, happy it's a great day to have a great day... whatever our situation may be
I need GS cookies in my life! I think I've been paralyzed because it's like picking a favorite friend to buy from....NOT a Girl Scout. Ha!
My Valentine Fairy brought me a Kate Spade from the new line this morning. I wrote him a very sweet card. Somehow, he feels like he won in this scenario. This relationship is definitely working out
I work a double today and have been told by EVERYONE that VD totally sucks. Worst customers we typically get on Sat nights + expectations about things we just don't do (we are not a rose on the table kinda place and no, we don't have a special set menu) + less than stellar tipping.....my strategy is to go in thinking love and diamonds and how lucky I am to be sober and happy this year. And take my ativan with me.
Hope you all have great days- good to hear from you Penny!

Hi all,
I want to join the February group. I am 8 days sober now. I am upset with myself as I had been sober since March 2013 and then talked myself into drinking again 'because now I can handle it' back in April 2016. Needless to say, I cannot handle it. SR helped me quit in 2013 and I have no doubt it will help me quit this time for good. God bless!
