With those horrible beer kegs still floating in my subconscious I must be ultra wary of sacrificial slips.............23/5/19 (6)
P.S. If that sounds a bit crazy it's not as crazy as drinking.

Today is going to be a darn good day not to drink!
As a collector of all manner of quotes I find that Dolores Ayotte one really good.

ABC, I tell myself the words from that quote all the time. Nice to see it attributed to someone. And thanks for the daily dose you provide.

Enjoy the day all.

Thanks for that note to all of us. Such dedication sets a fine example of patience, caring, and self and other person realization. Well done!

Ahhh, thanks Bubovski! And thanks Suze. Love you guys. Crazy to think Thursday morning is already happening for Bubovski, Suze still has hours of Wednesday left and I'm somewhere in between. No matter where or when we are, we're all united here. Seriously need to sleep, I'm rambling. Nite xxxx

Good evening,

Mother still in ICU—will be until at least this weekend. I am not going to worry too much about that. She’s surprised them by pulling through, and she is so weak that it is the perfect place for her to be, with kind,caring doctors and nurses watching everything closely. I could easily be overwhelmed by this, or hold on to the slow improvements and be grateful. Each day it gets a tiny bit better. This isn’t going away overnight. Always have to stay in the day. She actually stood up with lots of help from PT and can sit in a chair. Septic shock is major stuff. Faith and patience.. I trust this team and they adore her. We all do.

I’m very unproductive at work but that’s ok. As long as I do a bit and show up that’s enough for this week.

Pizza. It’s a quasi-healthy one.

24 with love and hope.

Xx

She’s been very nauseous and just started on liquids a little —hoping! No food yet but hopefully soon. You’re so kind to ask. You want them to get out of that environment but this came back so fast .. I think she needs to stay until she’s way stronger and eating.

I so appreciate the kind support and prayers. I have this routine now of being in my pajamas at 6pm on work/hospital days. On SR. It’s a bit of a boost but a break too..where I can refuel and reset. I’ve been reading a lot of recovery material the past couple days. I feel steady in that regard, but like I need to ramp it way up too.

Thank you so much

24 me! 924pm here. Really looking forward to a three day weekend. If I’m able, I think I’m going to get in a lot of yard work. I think a mountain lion could be hiding in my yard and I wouldn’t have a clue. Take care all.

Checking in for my 24. Changed my cell plan to a cheaper one to save some cash. I don't really need the mobile data cause I can't drive anywhere

Hi Whopper,
I didn't have a car for the last 3 years that I drank. Not a big deal because my sick brain told me --- Hey Now Bobbi... you can drink at night with no guilt. You can't be asked to be responsible because you don't have a car TO drive responsibly OR in any kind of state! YIPPIE!

Well, finally I went into Rehab for a month. Still no car. And now I wanted one, but we couldn't afford it is yet. I wanted to keep my sobriety and I wanted & needed those AA Mtgs. How do I get there though??

So, at 55 years old. I got onboard a public bus for the 1st time in my life. My unfounded fears were erased. I met some regulars and I got to my meetings 4 days a week for those first 6 months. By then we were able to get a car for me.

That's my Share, thanks for reading Whopper.

Bobbi
