F.I.S.T. (The First Insanity Survivors Thread) |
Thanks, Dee! I'm so impressed that we're on Part 5! :) |
^^^Me too. Amazed would be the word. I was going to ask someone to suggest a different title going forward, but I forgot to. Anyway, there's never anything wrong with not drinking or drugging today. Thanks for refreshing us, Dee! Glee and Deliza -- congratulations on your respective days, even if you didn't love them. You're one day further away from the train wreck of active alcoholism and addiction -- not too shabby! Let's all pat each other on the back, 'k? :) |
If you want to change the title it's easily done :) D |

:lmao I just survived cleaning a long left litter box and my little jack russell has been using my basement as a toilet too. :headbange I upchucked in my mouth. DO NOT buy cheap ammonia-dust producing cat litter. Lawyer called this morning... the saga drags on. Insanity survivor indeed. |
Insanity Survivors!!!!!! |
Hope your day gets better, Delizadee! |
There is no way will I drink today! |
Delizadee's Sober Snarky Marlarkey is pretty darn good. Although I could entertain, The Snark Bunny Diaries. |
Congrats on the four, Badge. Suggestions: -Back From The Brink -Joy in Sobriety To my second suggestion. I realize that there is a feeling of despair, loss of a good friend, struggles with AV, life's ups and downs that are posted on these threads. For me now - I feel little to none of those things. I do not miss alcohol in any way, shape or form. In fact, I do not regret what has happened to my life from alcohol either. All of those active addiction trials and tribulations have led me to a rather peaceful life in recovery. So, yes...I feel a joy - a net positive in recovery. Nothing lost or missed from those crazy days. When my stinkin-thinkin from the past activates, I know I have the tools to restart my thoughts. EXAMPLE: I was dead tired on Monday following a 6-day visit from a good friend. We were on the go for days on end. It was nice, but, after driving him to the airport at 4:30am on Monday I just was not mentally ready to begin my week. I struggled at work for like a hour and a half - then just gave up and took some much-needed duvet time and did nothing for hours. In the past (active addiction) I would have felt like I was being a lazy bum - thought about all the things that weren't getting accomplished. It would have been a stressful rest - at best. Not Monday...I simply enjoyed being a lazy bum. I didn't feel I earned it either - it simply was...I lived it present tense. When workout time came I needed to push myself a little to get out the door, but, it worked and after the gym, I was then off to my AA home group to make that crappy coffee that everyone thanks me for making. Had a dinner date last night. It was our second time together. No, not the police woman...that was a one and done...no vibes. I'm online, so it was simply back to the drawing board. Anyway, it went quite well and we are going to hang out this weekend. She had a glass of wine...strangely, again, I never saw her even drink it. Soooo cold in Florida today. Was in the high 30's this morning with a projected high of only 56. Hey, enjoy the day, gang. Carlos |
I'm glad it was a nice time, Carlos. I could entertain "The Snarkbunny Diaries," too! |
Sober, Clean and Obscene would be false advertising seeing as we can't be obscene here :eek5: I like all the others tho D |
