I understand love.....really.....just missing home and I get a wee bit excited at the site of an Aussie. :) We are all here for you....this was a great thread to join....tons of love and support and honesty. Hoping today is a good one....remember to drink lots of water and eat just small amounts if your tummy is icky....toast and vegemite is always going to be a winner. :) Thinking of you. :hug: ♥ |

Ya know, I always thought vegemite was something from a Men At Work song :D Seriously though --- welcome Jessie, good folks here. Another 24 of sanity and humour at 19.52 CT ;) |
I have my American husband hooked on the stuff Toddman, but to be honest, not a lot of people outside of Aus like it. :) |
Did you guys always like vegemite? What are the best things to eat vegemite with? Toast & butter? Eggs? What are good recipes? I am intrigued! |

It's awesome to be sober! 7:58 PM in the Salish Sea. |
I’m in too |
23:46 EST and another 24 for me! I like vegamit with celery sticks 🤗 |
i LIKE 'STRALYA. eVEN typos are not the much of a worry. Neoo- man huhs are okay. There is one lady, a friend now- a good friend just as a surviving human with bad experiences with booze and an intellect and humour like mine, who ALWAYS hugs me with loud cheek kisses, because she knows it makes me wriggle. She use to ask permission, but seems to think it is okay. I suppose so..but not what I am used to. When I was a kid- affection was given only a xmas- with a back rub from my mum. There was a guy at the meeting today- who is waiting on the prognosis of cancer. Another long term sober member relected a story of a guy who was dying of cancer, sober for decades who said that it is not what happens to us that defines us- but what we do about it. I agree. |
Another 24 hours of peace and serenity please. Love to all ~ Lillian |
24 more for this sober alcoholic!!! |
Hi, Time to check in for my next 24. :grouphug: Bobbi |

Good evening sweetie pies! Oh Neoo what a frustrating day! You've done so well so far just keep digging in till it's over. I'll have a lovely sparking cranberry and soda ready to celebrate with you on Feb 26th! :hug: Well guys yesterday was interesting. Eldest went to the cinema with "a mate" and........IT WAS A BOY! Yes her first proper date! :dee Okay.....stay calm Jojo......she is sensible.....she won't elope before her exams......eek! Actually I'm really pleased for her she seems happy and it's nice she's doimg "normal" things. So beware Delilah and Kenton! They grow up! Sob! Had a great day at work today. Got some tricky stuff done (felt the fear again and got on with it). I think Weavers spreadsheet mastery and general bravery (love you Weaver) spurred me on. So that's today's little bit of gratitude. Our 24 family cheerleading for one another. Go 24ers! :banana: Lots of love to you all and yes please to another 24 :grouphug: My baby is 10, and I am still his favorite girl in the world. I hope it stays that way for a very long time!! |

Neoo- no you are not a disaster. You did what you have to do- did not touch booze, you are spreading your professional wings and trying new stuff..a new life. I know this is a poor analogy (or whatever) but consider this..I have had 8 addresses in the last 2 years. The hardest 2 of my life. No family, money, possessions or home. I am waiting for the new unit- which took a lot of effort and hard work to reach..the housing people took a long time to agree to me being allowed into the whole game- be-c I am co-titled on the family home I have not seen since my burns. I was told end of this week I will move in. I spent 15 hours that day- packing and cleaning. First thing Monday morning- I was told it is delayed- because that is what happens in large organisations, be it paper work or staff or whatever. I cannot change this- so with clumsy grace I accept it, and focus just on today- the next hour, the next meal- the next activity. My life is not over. Memories and thoughts and feelings do not change what has happened. The die is cast so I have to wait. Now- it is a poor comparison be-c your stuff is courts and stuff. But you have done so well up to now, being upset is natural, but your life is still there- we are still here..the world still turns. Now hopefully, I can keep with my oh so wise words- if there are any more delays! Support to you my friend. Give yourself some breathing space..go and treat yourself to some really great food, or a movie or whatever. |

But then I'm probably just on the wrong side of crazy. I'll be doing it again this year. It's fantastic. Let me know if anyone wants to join my team. Tough mudder isn't timed so everyone helps everyone round the course and it's not competitive. It really is fabulous. Honest xxx |
24 more, thanks :) |
Count me in today. V. |
Another 24 please |
24 more for me please |
In for 24 and congrats to my classmate Toddman on 5 months! :c011::c011: |
8.32am and another 24 hours for me please beautiful people. Chin up Neoo, you'll get through this and be so glad these things are the past and you have a glowing, positive and sober future to look fordward to 💗 Take care all those with the colds and flu. I've just had it and know how miserable you feel. Hot water bottles, Lemsips and days in bed much needed. Gabexx |
