Congrats to the milestoners and V prayers to those that are struggling
Another 24 hours of gratitude, compassion and sobriety! It's 5:45 am here !

Give her many.
It is easy for a Mom to get discouraged.

Another 24 hours for me too. Today is bright and sunny but not too hot. A perfect day to enjoy sobriety. Although all days are perfect for soriety.

You can take the girl out of Australia, but you can never take Australia out of the girl.....I will be an Aussie through and through for as long as I get to be on this planet.

Looking forward to those results and then more food testing and a patch test next week.
Not feeling so hot today- had an awful morning with the boys where I screamed my head off. It's not okay at all for me to behave this way but at least these outbursts are less common. I feel terrible and bust into tears each time I think about it. On top of that I am just tired. Burnt out. Drained.
At least I am sober, right?
Here for another 24 hours of freedom.

Just quietly.....sigh.....I lost it badly yesterday. The photos from the wedding are not good. I look like I thought I looked....I stayed up most of the night last night trying to not lose my, well you know....I got married looking my worst and that's not something I can deal with, sober or not sober. That is not OK with me at all. Please don't worry about replying to this....I just kind of want you to know that even though I am married to the most incredible man and am so so grateful and happy, well, my wedding day makes me feel awful.
Just awful.
I was in such a bad place when I saw the first pics that gosh, poor Nick....he is amazing.
I need to get healthy, and we are going to recommit our vows somewhere lovely....Julia....I am going to look human next time.

As gorgeous as you are, it is hard to believe that you looked anything but stunning.
That said,
You could always re-dress and have a few pictures taken.

That's 10 big hugs by the way......
It's been such an intense week for you sweetheart. I hate the thought of you having a downer on yourself. From such a beautiful person too.......sigh........
Ugh the way we look at the packaging, the shell, as a woman can be tough. We criticize ourselves even feel ashamed a little and it's sooooo wrong.
But yes as a woman I get it. I've aged terribly over the last couple of years. I hate it.
I really do want to hug you like one of my daughters and tell you how beautiful you are.
All I have is some words from one woman to another......you're gorgeous ♥♥♥

♥I look at pictures taken in the months following the loss of our son and I looked liked death warmed over - which is EXACTLY how I felt.
But I STILL cannot believe that you weren't beautiful.

(((Suze))) sorry your not happy with the photos.
I never look good in photos , I just avoid the camera these days. The main thing though is my husband tells me I am beautiful and I have heard Nick say that to you often. You enjoyed the wedding day didn't you , the photo's aren't everything , don't let them spoil your happy memories. Much love.
