Thanks for your kind words everyone. Oh I don't know it's the kind of thing I put up with when I was drinking because I "deserved it" and I think it hit me a bit today because it somehow felt like I was back there again. Does that make sense?
Now and again I sometimes want to scream in someone's face "don't you know how bloody hard I have to try just to be normal!!!!!" I'm sure some of you feel like that too sometimes. That's why I need to be here every day. You understand.
Thank you again. I'm in bed now ready to snuggle up and put tv on with a herbal tea. I'm not back at that job until Tuesday so I shall surround myself with loveliness until then xxxx

Joand- it is crap about your work. It is so easy to say 'you do not deserve that! YOU SHOULD do something about it!' from the side lines. If it is effecting your mental health and work- perhaps talk to your GP, counselor (who ever) - just to get it off your mind...maybe work out what you can do.

Checking in for 24. I've reached the conclusion that I need to let one of my staff go. She is simply not performing despite encouragement and several chats. It came to a head when senior management was informed of her shortcomings (not by me). I feel like there is no choice in the matter. Sad but also relieved. At the end of the day, I hope she realises that it will be best for all concerned. She is young and has time to discover her true career path.
Congrats to the milestoners and prayers to those who are struggling. Hang in there !
Another 24 hours of compassion, serenity and sobriety pls ! Its 8:07am here !

I realised today - (well after a bit of finger & toe counting lol) that I am actually 67 days into sobriety and here I am for another 24 of freedom@
10:00pm here. Lucky to be here, glad I have the support of some good people in my life today and that includes you lovely 24'ers. Today I am willing to go to any lengths for another 24 of this. Sorry getting a bit carried away with myself.
So cocoa and zeds for me. Goodnight/Good Morning my lovelies. Much Love & Thanks to you all

Kris, I'm fascinated with the flames on that cake!! At first I thought ... Nacho Doritos ..... haha. Which would be an awful taste combo. It's colored sugar, right? 
Well, I'll check in a tad early. Thank to my HP, AA, & you all, I'll definetly ask for another 24!

Good evening,
I am a wrecked tired nuisance tree!
Mother is still holding steady—no side effects, really, just fatigue so we are breathing a little easier while we wait to see if the new medicine will knock the cancer down. I may actually be able to sleep a full night—I feel far less anxious than the last several weeks. I look worn. It is 7:23. I am ready to sleep a full night at last. Between work and Mum’s turn for the worse—wow. But sober all the way. Good to be in calmer seas on all fronts.
Jo, I need to read back and see what happened, but if you’re having a tough time at work I am sending love and support your way. Xoxo
Pebbles I loved your avatar yesterday. You are hilarious.
Get yourself to bed, Red! Maybe I should call my mother and have her order me.
. She did say something earlier—“don’t you have to be up at 3?” “Yes, Mother”. Haha. Love her—so happy she has a good chance of getting better.
Love
Red
