Welcome back Mish. The slip sucks but those ten months are excellent.

Purps, I know how that is. Just dust yourself off and get back at it.

Thanks all for the support.

Completely agree with Dee here, Suze. You offer so much of yourself that I wonder if you look after yourself enough. At the risk of saying something foolish, I'll say that I think you need to focus on whatever it is that ails you now. Be "selfish" if needed.

I am talking to a couple of friends. I can't discuss it here...if you want to call or message me that would be great. ♥

PS....thank you for your help PJ....it is so good to know you are there and that you care.

Checking in before I check out. I crack myself up. Getting ready to leave work to go to Jacob's and see his girls. Hung out with Kamry last night.

Nathan is really struggling again. May go back into inpatient rehab for a spell. Waiting on his rehab counselor to make it happen. I wish it would happen faster. If he is in rehab I don't know what happens with his probation. I guess we'll find out.

Hope everyone is having a great day!

Prayers, B.

Suze- you are a friend, friends help each other. REMEMBER DR HALTS!!!!..please do remember....you need to rest, eat and hydrate.

Informal grading at school (jeez- I really find that off putting- like I should be wearing shorts too big and grazed knees and reciting times tables). Nervy, but always am before classes.

Morning!

Hey Mish - welcome home!!

Bobbie - prayers for Nathan

Suze - thinking of you and sending prayers and strength

PJ - your school is lucky to have you! Good luck with the grading!

Well I’m off to work as I didn’t win the lottery. Again. Meh. Lol. Hot and humid today with grey skies. Wish I was still in bed under the covers.

Happy Thursday!’

Good Thursday Morning gang.

Hi Mish. Nice to have you back, but sorry about the circumstances.

Suze, I hope whatever it is gets better soon - glad you have someone to talk to.

Bobbie, you are doing a great job, but as PJ says - take care of yourself too.

I get to join the stupid parade today. The last 3 days have not been good - I'm very mad and a little confused or something. I go through periods where I'm strong and improving but I still hit that point where the voice in my head tells me I can indulge like a regular person. Of course I can't, and the empty bottles in the recycle bin are telling me that this morning. I can identify 3 distinct time frames in my sober time line - one at about 3 days, another at about 10 days and another at about 3 months. I have to travel today and tomorrow, but when I get back I'm going to look into some kind of IO option - pretty sure my insurance will cover some of it. This is just ridiculous.

Startin fluid is done brewing - time to get my sorry butt going. You guys are the best

IO is a good plan, MITA. More tools are always good. Glad you were able to put the brakes on so fast. It's not easy to do.

Sam, sorry you didn't win the lottery. Me either.

PHX - I bet if you had a Charlie Brown lunchbox school would be better.

Suze - hugs.

Mish!

Hey, BBG!

Thanks for the hugs, Purple.

Okay day here. Storms are on the horizon though. AA tonight. I get the girls over the weekend. I can't wait.

Have an awesome day!

Glad you're back so quickly MITA. I know exactly how you feel!

Just got back from the grocery. Gave the liquor isle the ole Casey salute.

Wish Casey would come back. I miss him.

Thanks for all the support -it really means a lot to me v

This last relapse has left me humbled, frustrated and maybe even a little depressed. It came on so fast - or at least it seemed that way to me. I won’t drink today - that’s about all I can say with certainty right now.

Have a great night everyone
