Class of July 2013 Part 47
Early good morning from me....I couldn't sleep.
I have spent a large part of the last two months working on recovery, my relationship with NIck and my relationship with myself. We have come such a long way ~ and through the pain and the hard work we needed to do to heal, we grew a lot stronger.
Life is so precious.....gosh, no one knows that better than the Julyers.
So I am moving forward in faith and love instead of fear. Well, most of the time....I really like it here now. I still wake up on mornings like today and miss Melbourne, but I don't miss anyone there.
My heart is here now and with all of you....thinking of Kris this morning.
Love to all of you.

It was just great to read your cheerful post; I am so happy for you and Nick.
Love and hugs,

It's good to see you around, Suze, and I missed the black, languid cat too!
We're having the tour of Britain cycle race in September, coming through our village on leg 3. So we're painting some old bikes green and hanging them up around the village, where they will be passing. That's what you do, apparently! It's on a Tuesday when they pass though so I won't be there as I'll be at work.
Hope all Julyers have a good weekend.

Thanks Gilmer. I am trying to keep up with posts, but by the time I am free to post, more things have happened. Apart from work, I will be shacking up with my partner in a few weeks, so the packing up has begun.
Best wishes Venus, I know it's been a bit bumpy for you of late. I didn't see your post til after I'd posted.
Croutie, sorry too about your pup. I did read it, I can't keep up, but I know the gap a loss of a pet creates. Thinking of you.

Hi guys, so lovely to see Suze and Croissant back xx
Thanks for your 5 month encouragement everyone. It really means a lot to me.
The longer I go without the drinking, the more I can't understand why I did it and how it took me so long to get right. It really is an evil insidious disease. Not that I need to tell you guys that.
Croutie, did you get Kikis ashes yet! I'm thinking of you. It's so nice cos she will always be with you. I'm sure you are a wonderful owner. You're so lovely xx
Leshar , missing your posts girlfriend xxx you too Ladybug and Lulu xx
Pete, I'm so worried about you. We have got to help you get sorted mate. You have everything to lose and nothing to gain. I'm sure your wife must be worried , angry, frustrated etc, just as much as you are. Drop in and say hi, you know none of us will lecture you....or did I just ...lol. Please post love xxx
Wolfy I love it when you do postbys ....it's so nice to see you, albeit it briefly. You are such a loved part of our class. Never forget that my friend. I miss you xx
It's so good having the weekend off, I've been a happy little Vegemite. I've got stacks done around my house today.
Shaun and I are going to Angies for lunch tomorrow. Hopefully she will be feeling better.
I can't believe how much joy I'm feeling in my life of late. I must've been really, really depressed. Self medicating with alcohol and exacerbating the negativity.
I actually look forward to each day now and wonder what I can do. I'm enjoying pottering around pruning my roses, going for long drives and loving my new greyhound . I think it's important to change things up a bit and I've done just that.
I'm walking Miss Piggy and taking her to dog parks with Lewis of course.
Our threads been a little bit slow lately so I'll try to post a bit more.
I love coming here and seeing all your posts and what you've been up to, good or bad.
Love to all of you , keep posting.xxx
Dee, Casey, Pj , Gil, Leigh, Bob, Mags , Nikki, and anyone I've missed xx love you

It is just wonderful to read how happy and content you are now! I am so glad things have improved so much for you.....couldn't happen to a more deserving Soul!
Sounds like your new Greyhound is settling in nicely. They are such beautiful, elegant looking dogs.
So glad you will be post more; I have missed you.
Hugs,
Croutie
I think you're a fine upstanding person too Lulu . What we do is not necessarily what we are.
I really want you to become the real you again tho, for good.
Have you considered what else you might do in order to stay sober?

You are a person who refuses to give up no matter how hard this is sometimes....OK, this is the hard part. But there is a way through, and you know that you can and will get there.
Yes, it feels like it's time to add something else to help now...why not love? You CAN feel proud of yourself and happy again. Reach out. ♥
Hello dearest Crois....so good to see you. I missed you. And thank you. It's kind of hard to believe we got through all of that. Neither Nick or I are taking any of this for granted, that's for sure. We are happy little vegemites right now and we feel pretty blessed.
Glad you are too Snoozy love. Gosh you are impressive woman!
Love to Bob and Mrs Bob, and yes, Casey love....PLEASE post. We care about you and miss you.
And I hear Pete's not doing well....same goes....come and talk.
SO much love guys. ♥

Hi Empress.
SQ- are you as bright as bright can be?
Just passin. Moved into a larger abode 96 months or so- THEN MY own place0. Have a dedicaed art room (big deal for me). 19 months undrunk now, nearly 2 years since the burns. Artificially templated skin shrinks in cold weather and throbs, fyi. Sleeping much better- more hours, still broken. Not having 2 huge metal gates banging metres from one's bed up to 100 times a day kind of helps.
Hope all are travelling okay.
