The woman that I dated for the longest in my life has six years sober today. We were both very active in our addictions in the years we dated so it's been cool to witness her turn her life around. She helps a lot of other people like us today. Very inspiring. If she can do it, I can too.

You can indeed dear Casey.

and Sam....baby Bambi.....lordy....I laughed and almost cried at the same time.
Yeah....I'm clumsy.....and I tried so hard to be careful.

I am sore as now....mostly my nose. Who the heck falls on their nose? (I have a small nose...so what the...why didn't I break my glasses?)

Hi Marchketeers. Am still very, deeply affected by son's marriage. It adds to my motivation not to repeat my historical reactions to stress (booze, isolating) but get up and keep moving.

The online provider I use- blocked any messages being sent, they explained 'suspicious activity'. So after hours of trying anything at that with a human, I was told to speak to an 'expert' would cost $50. They took out double this, still did not give any reasons. I found a human, who apparently uses their job as online support to being an excellent way to speak English.
3 emails later- they put me onto a lawyer (for an extra fee), so I plastered them with emails (about 5). The problem has been fixed- with 500 words describing why the money went to where ever it went to. STILL with no explanations s to why.
Lovely day here- about 21C. Predication are in 2 days- the temp will double.
My little friend has, with some support from me (and lots of non men- I pointed out why I could only do so much)is going to a very intense recovery - 3-7 month, program

Hi gang - all is well here. Happy to be warmer than most. Starting week 2 of my running experiment. There is a 5k here at the end of Feb. - maybe try that.

Bobbie, our transition has been pretty good - still not quite the social network we had back east, but getting better all the time. Most importantly, I feel like I am "home".

V - rest up and get better.

Casey - glad your old friend is doing so well, and that you are too. We are all sure you are an okay dude.

PJ - that whole thing "suspicious activity" thing sounds very suspicious!! What the heck?!

Everyone else, have a great night!! And great to have you back, Applekat!!

Startin' fluid time!

This "Kitty Acts Like a Boss" meme reminds me of our brat cat....he's 2 now; he lives at Mom's (she got him as a bribe to get me to stop drinking so much) ~ When thinking of a name, one of our local radio personalities hosts the "Cat Named Mo Show" so.....we now have our own 'Cat named Moe'!

Morning!

Slept like crap and feel like crap. But hey at least they match! I’m off today, thank goodness. Going to just take it easy. Might watch the Jem and the Holograms Movie and take a nap. Perhaps not in that order. Lol

Will be around. Can’t even imagine being sick and hungover this morning. Grateful for that. Day three of Dry January.

Totally agree Sam. I looked up the definition of Yabbering and laughed...that's definitely our Casey.
