I'll have to try and be more aware of some of those. My typical slipping point is when I convince myself I can handle a drink or two. What's that saying? One is too many, 100 is not enough? Something like that

I'm feeling a bit 1-3. Trying to fix things before it goes further.

Congrats Bobbie! A new grandbaby!

Sorry you're feeling crappy. Good thing you're catching it at the early stages so it can be nipped in the bud!

Your anniversary is approaching.....

Stupid ME!!! I attempted to delete a picture from my phone, and instead I deleted the entire album....including videos of my crush on drums at the show back in March.....I know I should've transferred them over to Youtube and hadn't gotten around to it. Dammit! Trying to recover them.....Eye candy, where did you go????

Late check-in. Slept in a little too late before work but still got there on time. All went well while there. Just got done grocery shopping and running errands. It's 5:30 and I'm already in my pajamas. Lots of work the next few days as I get ready for vacation at the end of next week.

Wishing everyone a safe and sober Monday evening/Australian Sunday afternoon.

Quick check in, still working on it. On and off, no good. Frustrated with myself but, ad naseum, not giving up.

Congrats on an almost year, Bobbie, and the soon grandchild.

Sorry you slipped Sam, but you know you'll move past it. Slips while not inevitable do happen. Be proud of your time and just rack it back up. You will, I'm certain.

Casey, same to you. You've been a steady influence and even though you slipped, you'll fight through it.

PR, I hope the bug fades fast. And Happy Birthday! Late? Early? I'm unclear

I hope you're able to recover those pics, Purp. Still, you have the memory either way.

Well done keeping it going, bbg.

Good to see you here, Mish. Stop by more often.

I don't have any superlatives for you, PJ. You just keep getting it done.

MITA, same slip point I made to Sam and Casey. You have what it takes.

Caramel, it seems you're doing well again. Slippage is avoidable as you well know, so same as above, you have what it takes.

LB, seems to me that you have it down. The vacation will be fun without booze. You'll remember and have a good time. You got this.

My apologies to those I missed but I'm trying to get more active again so I'm off my game.

Finally, to FallingLeaves, welcome to a wonderful group and congratulations on your well deserved and earned year plus.

Good to see you back, 13th. Don't be a stranger

A good, but very long day today. Up at 0400, and just hitting the sack now @ 2304.

Work, gym, grocery shopping, more work. All very boring - my kind of day

Hope everyone here is sleeping well. Those of you on the side of the world, what are you doing?!

Was debating sharing this- perhaps not SR related. BUT it is. Part (actually a lot) of what I do to work out who I am, in recovery is thru art and writing. The volunteer position with the arty place (run by the city of A) - I got it. Small hours- but I suspect by the pd, that is up to me... So getting happy about that. Also joined an online writing course- run by a recognised author, for the same reasons..I have 5 journals, dozens of arty things and an art book of words and images. Time to bring them home.
When checking out the arty place today- I got so distracted- I tripped on a low stair in an elevated public space. With granny trolley in tow. It was a heavy trip. Last time something similar happened I could not weight bear and fell heavily on my knee. It hurt, a lot..Which is part of the journey.
Today I managed- albeit clumsily with the building momentum manage to keep balance and weight bear on the crappy knee. 11 months ago that was not even thinkable. Recovery indeed. Cooking night, stir fry's and pasta dishes. No more lamb- it is to much have to be devoured- asap- without vegies (sigh).
Also did a lunchtime meeting, some real weirdlies there today. Given had 5 hours sleep in 48 hours- and was out 5 hours without stopping (longest time ever since frying myself) doing okay.
