Morning all!!
Just popping in to say hello.
Still off work and home until Sunday.....and struggling. Not struggling with drinking right now but more so with my headspace. Not really sure how to explain it better. So for the purposes of accountability I’m here and checking in.
Happy hump day!

Hey guys! Casey would be disappointed in us. Our chattiness seems to have a pretty big lull right now.
MITA - I know what you mean. No control sucks and I think it's what gets us alcoholics in trouble. Prayers for some peace to return to your chaos.
PHX - dude - you have an army behind you cheering you on. I believe in you!!!
Purple - Hey!
PR - happy shark week!!
Suze - Hope your weather has been as nice as ours. Hugs.
Sam - Happy Hump Day! Maybe don't try and fix the head space, but rather, just sit with it and get comfortable in the uncomfortable. If that makes sense. Hugs.
BBG - Hey!
Dee - Thanks for the new thread.
Anyone out there - hey! Let us know you're okay. Have a great rest of the day!

0608 Thursday
Painting today. Despite the challenges- I am enjoying this stuff- specifically because of the challenges. So now I have completely contradicted myself- I shall leave with quiet dignity (HA!)
Keep posting people who are not me- 'special when ya dinna wantto!

Re the chattiness, for me love, it's kind of like you Bobbie....I had to dial back a little bit....I have life stuff happening that I have been waiting forever for....so limited posting time.
But I miss Casey. And other people who keep disappearing. It's freaking hard.
I hope he comes back.
Now.
Right now.....
did it work? ♥

Thought for the Day
To paraphrase the psalm: "We alcoholics declare the power of liquor and drunkenness showeth its handiwork. Day unto day uttereth hangovers and night unto night showeth suffering. The law of A.A. is perfect, converting the drunk. The testimony of A.A. is sure, making wise the simple. The statutes of A.A. are right, rejoicing the heart. The program of A.A. is pure, enlightening the eyes. The fear of the first drink is clean, enduring forever." Have I any doubt about the power of liquor?
Meditation for the Day
"Walk humbly with thy Lord." Walking with God means practicing the presence of God in your daily affairs. It means asking God for strength to face each new day. It means turning to Him often during the day in prayer for yourself and for other people. It means thanking Him at night for the blessings you have received during the day. Nothing can seriously upset you if you are walking with God." You can believe that He is beside you in spirit, to help you and to guide you on your way.
Prayer for the Day
I pray that I may try to walk humbly with God. I pray that I may turn to Him often as to a close friend.

Hey guys.....gotta give this weekend thing another go....close call yesterday; I've been so frustrated at work (mainly with ME for putting myself here to begin with) but I was tempted to request a personal day today so I could drink last night after work. It didn't happen, and I'm not looking forward to going in today, but at least I'm not hungover now.....
Having a crap job with crap pay is putting that fire under my ass to do something about it. Mindful crap....
Oh, "Here!" btw #RollCall
