Like one for people with ADHD addicted to coffee, puppies and rockstars?

Sounds like the perfect day Bobbie!! ❤️❤️

BBG - if there’s not one already I’m sure you could start one! Just a thought...

Pretty boring day so far. Just some Netflix and laundry. Might mix it up soon with a nap. The possibilities are endless

Well BBG if your addiction to hugging plumbers is that strong I suggest you find that 12 step program ASAP. We all knew you were in denial 😂😂😂

Man it’s after 11 am and I still haven’t made it to my startin fluid. 😬 rough day!!!

Oh my God, Purple, that puppy is too cute.

My daughter and her boyfriend just got a new puppy and he puts his paws around your neck and hugs you. Best thing ever.

BBG - I found 14 steps to becoming a plumbing apprentice. I'll keep looking.

Support to you.
Thanks, PJ. I'll be the first to admit that my "try" has been far from adequate. Resolved to not just constantly cave as has been my wont. Thank you.

Ahh, would it were that simple. It is, just not easy. Thank you.

Thanks Dee for the new thread

Hi Marchers!
Many projects and now it's time for progress. The concern is the (LIE LIE LIE) that boozing somehow helps make those projects easier, more enjoyable, fill in the blank. There's the concern. Thank you.

And thanks Dee for the new thread. Forgot that part.

Bobbie, Suze, PR, FL (good to see you!), Sam; I hope you all had a wonderful sober day as well. Best wishes and thank you all.

Hey 13th.....no, it isn't easy.....do you want a sober buddy? Someone to talk to or text? Someone to check in with? I volunteer. If you are interested, PM and I will send my number. It helps.....it helps me as well.

You guys will never believe this.....so, after many months of back and forth, I made big life decisions and started a new path of study...it is kind of different and I am private and I wanted to wait to tell anyone. Specifically my sisters. And guess what? There is an awesome chic in my class who is from Melbourne...liked her immediately, she is quick and bright and we messaged...there is a closed FB group for the class, and low and behold she is my cousin's girlfriend. Really. My close cousins....and also the ones with the biggest mouths.....so pretty soon the entire Jewish community in Melbourne will know exactly where I am and what I am doing.

Which is hysterical....I moved across the world to escape that community. But my mum was right.....you can never leave your family....they will find you.

Good stuff, Suze. Hope it helps you feel less home sick.

Hot and humid here today. Would be a great day to be on a lake.

Have an awesome day, guys!

Thought for the Day


Alcoholism is a progressive illness. We go through the three stages of social drinking, trouble drinking, and merry-go-round drinking. We land in hospitals and jails. We eventually lose our homes, our families, and our self-respect. Yes, alcoholism is a progressive illness and there are only three ends to it - the insane asylum, the morgue, or total abstinence. Will I choose not to take the first drink?

Meditation for the Day


You not only can live a new life but you also can grow in grace and power and beauty. Reach ever forward and upward after the things of the spirit. In the animal world, the very form of an animal changes to enable it to reach that upon which it delights to feed. Your whole character changes as you reach upward for the things of the spirit -- for beauty, for love, for honesty, for purity, and for unselfishness. Reaching after these things of the spirit, your whole nature becomes changed so that you can best receive and delight in the wonders of the abundant life.

Prayer for the Day


I pray that I may reach forward and upward. I pray that my character may be changed by this reaching upward for the things of the spirit.
