Hi lovelies it's been a while. Since my 'almost a year' sober last year I have been on and off drinking. Only light beer with the occasional drunk night on red wine. Stupid really. Life is so much better sober so I am committed to stopping this stupidity.... Yet again. I haven't gone overboard and done anything stupid (duh drinking is stupid) ... In fact I've been quite reserved in my drinking but an alcoholic is an alcoholic. I don't like drinking, it's pointless, it doesn't make me happier...in fact I'm happier when I am sober.
Bobbie- yay!!! Congrats on the house. Can't wait to see pics.
Lil- I've been away so long I missed that you were in Chemo. Big hugs xxx
MITA - funny you mentioned Mr Goggins. We have a security guard at work who was talking about him last week. He recommended I watch some of the YouTube videos.
Sorry I've been such a stranger....will definitely try to stick close. Funny when you're drinking the last thing you want to do is log into SR but that's the best thing you can do.

Mish - yes, the resistance to post when feeling crap. Like losing weight before joining a weight loss program- of which I would be one. It is that first push that is the hardest. I hope you can pursue your goals- and keep posting too.

Good you are here lots too, Purp.

BBG- no it is not 'startin' fluid', it is CONTINUIN' FLUID!

How are you B and Lill?

Where are you 13th?

Hi MITA!

Hi to everyone, I do not do this sort of post - but hell, you only live once, unless your a buddhist.

My new meds are horrible, I know they take weeks to kick in and I hate it, but making a triple redouble effort today to get off my rear and do stuff. Not sleeping until 0300, very tired and very sore- so I will see how I go.
BBG- you had better have lots of coffee ready.

Hope the meds settle down soon, PHX. Or kick in - whatever you need them to do.

Busy weekend. Will catch up later.

Freezing and crying way too many tears and I need coffee. Hot coffee.
And all of you.

Mish honey.....I just read something in the 24-hour thread.....hold on, going to find it....

I asked what the area he's at look like .... "swampy" is pretty much all I got from him. Already miss him, but it's a positive direction he's going toward. He's 27, 10 years sober, and starting another new adventure on the high seas!! 🛳❤️

I'm in for my next 24 too!
Bobbi
The other Bobbi

I think about Mark and the life he has in front of him....27 and 10 years sober....the entire world is his oyster. He is done with this....this back and forth that so many of us have gone through for SO MANY years.

You are a beautiful age Mish....I would have loved to have gotten sober at your age....instead I waited until the week before I turned 50. Just dumb. Ridiculously dumb.

Although, I would not know Nick if things had been different....so I am glad they are the way they are.

I would love this to be over for you....life is so much better for me sober honey....I want to share.

Good Sunday Morning gang, and H E L L O M I S H !!!!!

Gosh, it is great to "see" you here

I stayed in bed until 8:00am - but had some breakfast and startin' fluid, so ready to go now.

Bobbie, as PJ says, take care of yourself - please.

Purps, I remember the part about Annie Grace doing that experiment - I thought about doing it, but I know how it would go.

Suze - it will warm up soon!!

BBG, Caramel, 13th and Sam - hope you all have a great day!!!

I;m glad you're back Mish - yeah I can;t dabble in drinking - all or nothing for me - I choose nothing cos my life rocks this way

I'm so sorry to read about Nathan Bobbie - prayers and good wishes to him and to you and your family. I hate this addiction thing.

I'm around PJ. Thank you for asking. I do hope the med change works soon. Having never been on them I have no point of reference.

Welcome back Mish!

Sorry to hear about Nathan, Bobbie. I hope he finds his way.

Many salutations and hugs to all.
