A little more un-sucky this afternoon. One major diff these-a-days is I just go ahead and so what I need to, plus some of what I enjoy (like art) to spite the crap feelings/physical stuff (TAKE THAT CRAP STUFF- BAM!)I am not my emotions- much more than that.
Lillian I hope you're getting lots of good rest

Good morning, Marchers. Potential long day at work ahead of me so I'm putting off heading in until the last possible minute unlike my usual stance of be early everywhere.
Not gonna drink today. No way no how.

Standard kind of day and week here - which is great. No travel for the next few weeks. I am trying to manage that travel down this year, and I'm off to a decent start.
In general, things are pretty positive at the moment - at the same time I'm trying to be vigilant regarding that sneaky AV
Have a great day everyone!!!

Yes PJ - congrats on that soberversary!!
Winding down the day here. I'm looking back on one conversation I had with some guys that I don't know too well, but am certainly friendly with. They don't know my drinking situation (most people don't know my drinking situation), as a matter of fact we've never even had the occasion to be out together. They were talking about some sales retreat they go to where most everybody gets a bit out of control - I guess to just join in the conversation, I relayed an old drinking event of mine that was pretty funny but did it in a way that made it seem like I still drink. Afterwords, I had to wonder why I did that. I'm sure part of it was, as I said, just to have some way of joining in the conversation - but I can't help but think that there might be more to it. Not sure if anyone else has ever done this.
Anyway, I'm not drinking today and when I get up tomorrow I'll feel fine and tell myself the same thing - Don't drink .....
Hope everyone had a great day!!

I can relate to that MITA....I can recall talking to coworkers as if I was ready for a drink that weekend, then later on thinking "Why did I say that??" I guess as long as we don't act on it(?) 
Wednesday morning here.....time for startin' fluid

I dunno Mita.....I am pretty sure part of you wanted to keep your privacy....maybe? Or maybe it was awkward to say: yeah, funny huh? But I don't do that anymore....and sure, maybe a part of you misses it. And that is what I would look at....do I really miss it? Which part exactly? Cos gosh it is easy to forget how very bad it got...maybe not easy, but it fades I think. I know it has for me to some extent.
I got a text last night from a friend I made here early on....I adore her. She said she was in the club around the corner....in other words come down and say hi....I didn't, but part of me wanted to. For a split second. Until I played the tape through and laughed at myself...decided to organise a coffee with her instead.
Morning Purps honey.
