Best wishes MITA.
13th - again I can only offer my hope that you'll work out whatever are the things holding you back from good positive change.
I really hope you can jump on the recovery wagon train without losing too many things of value before you do.
Best Wishes MITA
Try and remember balance Kiki - don't overwhelm yourself, ya hear?
Have a good night Lillian, PR, Sam, Purps, Mish BBG, Pelagic, Bobbie and anyone I've missed from the last day or so,.

Hello friends 
I have the day off today.....gotta couple of appointments this morning but I'll be around. Also picked up a pumpkin to carve this afternoon; if all goes well I'll post a picture (and that's a BIG 'IF')

Good morning/evening people!
Finishing up a few nagging chores later today, but we're leaving town for the weekend. My wife is running a half marathon. I'll be there for "moral support" as they say, but mostly I'll be wandering around with a cup of startin' fluid in my hand, and trying not to look too out of place amongst the healthy throng and their brightly-colored clothing. I'll be wearing khaki/olive, as usual.
Hope all goes well with your stress test, MITA. My doc is mighty hands off I guess. She told me to stop drinking and get a colonoscopy, but that's it. I've only done one of those two things so far. You can guess which.
Thirteenth, wishing you the best. Just remember us drinkers love to hide it. If you have a houseguest that's probably what you'll do. I hope you can give sobriety a real chance. It's tough at first but it does get better.
Good to see so many of us checking in. Stay sober and keep on keepin' on.

Good morning. Hoping for an easy slide into the weekend - even with the stress test! Had an afternoon crazy thought yesterday - the usual time of day for me - I'm definitely better at waiting those out now, but I'm surprised it still happens as often as it does.
I agree with this, big time. This class has a lot of staying power, that's for sure. We are a fun bunch, but a tough bunch too. BBG is a tough guy and a softie at the same time
Have a great day everyone!

Morning!
I know Lillian! I'm crazy busy. It's dumb. Things are gonna slow way down from November-March. I'm looking forward to it but on the other hand idle time is not my friend so I need to be careful! I'm also a very hyper person who gets bored easily. Ha.
Speaking of busy...I have to head to therapy & then a meeting. Have a great day everyone!

Purple - good lord girl, sleep in. That's what days off are for. Have fun with the pumpkin carving.
PHX - don't run into any lamp posts. I laughed when I read Dee's post. You're going to kick some butt. I'm still waiting on the background check for the prison work. I think I begin school in January. Pretty excited about that.
Lillian - never going to be able to put on a pair of sweat pants again without singing David Bowie.
MITA - enjoy your day off. Good luck with the stress test.
13th - dude. you know what to do. just saying
PR - hope your day is filled with swimming pools and rainbows.
BBG - have a great day!
Kiki - remember to take big breaths between activities. It's kind of important.
PCBH - hope you have an awesome day and are feeling better.
Lunablue - hey!
Pelagic - have fun at your wife's half. I was supposed to be running one this Sunday, but my training got derailed. Life happens.
Hi Dee!
AK - Hope your Friday is awesome!
Have the best day ever, sober March people!
Check in if you haven't.
Cristina? Missing you.

I promise I won't stop trying. I want to thank you all for the support and patience you've given while I've given almost nothing in return. I'm going to step away for a bit again. It's nobody's fault but my own, but I can't stay here now when I'm not doing the right things. I will be back.

Don't go too far, Thirteenth! Stay close & keep checking in...
I laughed about the sweat pants thing too....y'all are just too stinkin' funny!
Errands done for the day: gym, car oil change & kitty checkup at the vet.....
Now it's laundry & pumpkin time....haven't started gutting it yet....think I'll put in one of my dvds of the boys to get me going (they inspired the design I'm attempting to carve)
Oh....and a new Starbucks flavor.....Maple Pecan with an extra shot of espresso!

Well apparently we get 1 day of fall at a nice 71 degrees today. Next week we crawl back up to the 100s for a few days 😡 blah. I’m going to take advantage of it and make white bean chicken chili and homemade bread for dinner. We’ll do a little bit of school today but this weekend is my daughters birthday and she requested one of mommas custom made birthday banners for her birthday dinner so I better get on that. Somehow her birthday really snuck up on me this year. I haven’t even gone shopping for gifts yet 😬
I guess I’m gonna have use my beatleguese summonsing powers to summons a few people

Well, I survived the devil women running the stress test It was not so bad. Apparently, I am in reasonably decent shape compared to most people (at least most people that are doing this stress test) - this is good and bad, because what it really means is you stay on that treadmill longer. Not bad for someone who categorizes any exercise that has more than 5 repetitions as cardio.
Meet with the cardiologist next week to review the results - I'm sure it's all good.
Enjoy the weekend folks - I'll be around a bit, and looking forward to keeping up with everyone.
Don't drink. It's dumb.

Do something different. heck, do the opposite.
