I was visiting family for a couple days and, forget my computer. Couldn’t sign in but, most importantly I remained sober. Count me in for another sober day!

Just caught up and it looks like a lot happened in the last two days. Thoughts and prayers for all who need one!

5:35am in Alberta, I'll have another 24 please, and thanks...

Today is going to be a darn good day not to drink!

Yes MsV that God stuff(whatever that means)...tongue in cheek as always. As usual abc, your quotes are precious! My question today is what should I do career wise? I look @ my current job as a means to an end coz I don’t think I can do this much longer; wear & tear on this body is too much. Believe I can be successful @ a desk job but don’t know where to start!!
24 in spring MD pls
Happy to PM with you love.....I think you would be an asset anywhere.

Today my sweet Ken attended the funeral of friend (Cancer, left behind school age children & wife). SO much sadness & loss.

Can I just once again say how grateful I am for my sobriety & Recovery! Today we marked 31 years together ❤️. Thank the Universe I have my Ken, as we go through LIFE on LIFE'S Terms TOGETHER.

I'm also in for my next 24.
Bobbi
So much love for you sweet Ken and his friend's family. s

And for both of you.



31 years.....wowie baby!!!! ♥♥♥

so there!








Repeat share: Outpatients appt...saw one surgeon in main foyer- WHO showed the sales manager of the dressing company that makes the dressing which helped save my life- on describing who I was (with a tour of my arm) she looked awe struck. Then senior nurse checked- other nurse removed 20 sutures from donor site- inner thigh. Other surgeon looked, all happy. Top layer of skin has sloughed off- looks like raw mincemeat- that has been patted down with a fork. My down there area is very sore- very sore. Then assessment by OT for a new glove. The graft has taken well, and the 30 or so stitches have all dissolved now- no more reinforcing bandages (there- I PUT ONE ON HOME, TO PROTECT IT FROM BUMPING), SO THAT IS QUITE SORE AS WELL. and that was in caps and I am tired so staying in caps.... So tiring but good. Then visit to cuz- she gave me linen she had spare- as I do not have much. Then shopping- home, went to check mail and locked myself out. The spare I usually have hidden (and I mean hidden) outside was at a friend's place- who had it for checking my unit when I was in hosp. Went to unit management office not far away (had spare car keys on spare mail box key, with no house key) and got their spare-spare key, all good.

Interesting- my neighbor came out and correctly worked out I was locked out, then proceeded to settle into the rhythm one does when launching into a 'life lesson' story and what SHE does with her spare key.......really what I needed.

Long day, but very productive
Gosh. What a DAY.

And oh yes....I love the life-lesson that you absolutely don't need at exactly the wrong time....sigh.
