Checking in. Just about to start dinner. I had the highly anticipated lazy afternoon...it was nice. I watched five episodes of a TV show that was mediocre but I'm still not complaining.

I'm still in pain from Bobbie's fish oil joke.

My long day at work turned into a medium length one as I've been off for a few hours. Unfortunately my normal day off Wednesday is now gonna be a long one of work. Oh well, I need the money.

Went to my dad's after work to do laundry. Finished another level of my Zelda DS game with my nephew looking over my shoulder. I think I only have 3 levels left.

Glad you're back with us, Applekat. Not sure if I have any sobriety/recovery book recommends right now. I recently read Mary Karr's Lit. While I liked it overall, I don't think I could recommend it as a inspirational type book to read in early recovery. While it's definitely about her alcoholism, it's just as much if not more about her first failed marriage and her struggles as a writer. I'm thinking about tackling Pete Hamill's A Drinking Life pretty soon. I know I read it once 15-20 years ago and liked it but don't remember much else. I found a copy again recently.

Gotta fold my laundry and do a little ironing. I'm sure I'll be back in here before bed but if not, thanks for being here and for keeping me sober one more day.

PS Applekat, there is some new member in the June 2017 class who is using your same avatar. It's really throwing me off.

New contest!

I'm 147 posts away from #7,000. Class member who comes closest to guessing the date and time of that post #7,000 gets to pick a new avatar for me to use for five days. All guesses should use central standard time since that's how my account is set up here and how I see my posts and yours date/time-stamped. Under or over, doesn't matter, just closest period. I'll be accepting entries through 11:59 pm CST tomorrow (Wednesday, June 21, 2017). That's a little over 28 hours from now to get your guess in!

Avatar can be anything you'd like. As long as it follows SR's rules, of course.

EDIT: Now 146 posts away!

If blue whale is what you want, make a guess and maybe you'll win, Phoenix!

WHEN WILL CASEY GET TO POST #7,000? VOTE NOW!

Oh man I slept like a rock last night. I didn't want to get up this morning. I didn't even hear my husband leave which is extremely rare. It's going to be 104 today and I have to leave my house 😢 All 3 kids have a dentist appointment. Blah

Have a great day everyone!
When I had that 6 year sobriety run, my kids were 9, 7 & 5 when I started AA & they always went to meetings with me b/c I HAD to go! (Court ordered b/c of a DUI (aka OVI) in 2008.) Anyway...if there wasn't babysitting, they would all play on their electronic devices with head phones so they couldn't hear & then I'd reward them with lunch or ice cream after. I had to do what I had to do....

You know your kids better than anyone. Just cause I took MY kids doesn't mean you should take yours by the way. Every kid, every meeting and every situation is different. Just do what's best for you & your family. Love you friend!

Watched Guardians of the Galaxy #2 today. Pretty funny and just what I needed to help me stay cheery! Haha

I hope everyone had an awesome day. See you in the morning!
