My teeth are fine- all filled up.
Dentists are a necessary evil. I am up on dental stuff (now).
Just TRIED to change my address online with the new and improved 'one stop shop' for government services. One guess...not working. Except for an email from said service that said I have not provided all the information. HA! Tried to send feedback by another service- but that one did not work either. No local office- except for a row of computers linking to the same one stop shop.

A quick hello,mwe got internet in the house today, but I have been so busy working around that I haven't had chance to do more than check it worked!
I've had a productive few days, we move in tomorrow for the rest of our stay - we have been in a hotel til now, the only furniture we have so far is our bed and a manky sofa left behind by the previous owner. We have no kitchen, but one functional bathroom.
Wolfie I hope they figure out what to do to help your dad.
IP, I think you will know what to do about the job once you get a little time to think about what you want.
PJ I hope you are settling in to your new home.
Hugs to everyone, I just read four pages to catch up so can't keep up with you all!

HAPPY 3 "CONSECUTIVE" YEARS CLEAN AND SOBER, Glee...sober bestie. 
You are an inspiration and testament to the PROMISES!!
If we are painstaking about this phase of our development, we will be amazed before we are half way through. We are going to know a new freedom and a new happiness. We will not regret the past nor wish to shut the door on it. We will comprehend the word serenity and we will know peace. No matter how far down the scale we have gone, we will see how our experience can benefit others. That feeling of uselessness and self pity will disappear. We will lose interest in selfish things and gain interest in our fellows. Self-seeking will slip away. Our whole attitude and outlook upon life will change. Fear of people and of economic insecurity will leave us. We will intuitively know how to handle situations which used to baffle us. We will suddenly realize that God is doing for us what we could not do for ourselves.
Are these extravagant promises? We think not. They are being fulfilled among us—sometimes quickly, sometimes slowly. They will always materialize if we work for them
Enjoy...

Congratulations Glee on 3 years. Brilliant. 
FBL, that video cracked me up! Not seen it before.
Toots and all in UK, hope you're all safe from the effects of Doris. Just watched the news and there has been some tragedies around the country. And all the overs.keep safe.

Thanks everyone. I'm grateful for each and every one of you who walk with me on this journey.
Three years ago I didn't know how to live right. I'm grateful that I figured out how to open my mind and heart to recovery.
I found solace and fellowship here on SR, and in AA I found a new way to live. For me not drinking wasnt enough but I was skeptical walking into AA the first time. Actually for the first 6 months. Keeping an open mind was key. I listened, I tried it, I kept going until it made sense. The Promises that Carlos posted sum up my results perfectly.
Have a great day everyone!

Morning overs
Take care Wolfie. Sending love and prayers for your dad and your family.x
Glee, I feel exactly the same way about SR , solace and fellowship.
The windy Doris seems to have dispersed now, leaving a trail of havoc.
I'm pleased it's Friday, overs. It's been a long week, don't know if it's because of the medication , I have to concentrate more, prednisolone seems to affect my brain, not many more days on it though. But it does the trick, I can breathe! Which comes in handy.
Have a good day overs.
