Just stay safe today. And I promise of course but who knows. My sober muscles are weak, I can't stop crying, woe is me. The gifts a bottle of rosé give are endless. I will perch on here for a while. I wish my old Mum was here. She used to make everything better and that's never going to happen again ever and I so miss the ego building, caring lady she was. She was always my one woman fan club. It hurts so much. My aunt is hours/days from death & I haven't seen her to say goodbye. Sorry I know it's the hangover and self pity but I feel so alone. SP x
((((((Sweetpeacan))))). I think it is so awful what age can do to a person and so very distressing and unfair for all involved.

Your realmMom is in there somewhere but she just can't get it out.

I hope that you will catch glimpses of her now and then.

Please keep close

Talked to my bf and we discussed how much better our lives are now and how much worse they'd be if we were still drinking. Looked at pictures of my wrecked car, pictures of my bruised back and contemplated the choices that got me there. Went and got our favorite peanut butter cookie dough ice cream. I hope eventually I can take ice cream off the coping tools list but for now its staying! Thank you for the encouragement! I don't want to get off the sober bus. 24 more please.
It is going to get so much easier and better, dear one, I swear to you!

Ice cream is never coming off my tool list - NEVER, EVER

We sorted things out and she said sorry for what happened and she is going nowhere..Jeez such a stressful thing relationships may not be for me..
Oh, honey, why were you pushing her? Did I miss something? Did something happen?

Thank you for all your kind messages.
Much Love, SP xx
I am so sorry, Sweetpeacan.

Love.

Wowza! Evening all. Just read the last like...5 pages! Is everyone ok? Seems a lot going on right now with peeps and stress. People swearing and shouting at daughters, people feeling down, some getting tools out of toolboxes, using em then tools away. So whats the plan? I say we are all here and its safe so lets stay here for right now and all of it will pass...ok? (maybe not the neighbours but they are an arse and who wants to mingle with a strangers arse!) Neoo chill the **!$ out or you will miss the honeymoon period bit and thats the best bit. Xx oh and i'm in for 24 more so just holler if you need a hug. Xx

Ha ha ha!! Love your post Soberista. Made me laugh out loud (I never feel cool enough to write lol - that's one disadvantage of not being on any kind of social media. ... I never know what all the letters stand for and I feel foolish using them. For the longest time I thought lol stood for 'lots of love'.... my teenage daughter had to correct me... with plenty of eye rolling and attitude). I'm glad you're sounding so great Soberista. Your post was the perfect end to my day. Lots of love or lol to everyone .... nite nite xxxx

All in for 24.

Felt zonked again today - ALL day. Think I'm gonna ditch the supplement the doc put me on, it makes me SO spaced out, I can't do anything.

Thanks Leigh for the sweet reply yesterday, and anyone else if I missed it.

Sorry to read of some struggles out there. You know what I do - grab a pillow (memory foam is best), jam my face into it, and SCREAM. It's a winner

Love to all

Jack love....not a doctor, obviously, but I think we may tend to overdo it with the supplements....as a group I mean.....maybe just good food fresh air exercise and sleep? Love you....hope you feel so much better.
