Ooh Jo, how exciting about Glastonbury! I'd love to go there..... Too late for me to get tickets for the festival but I'd just like to go to Glastonbury, the place. Apparently it's really mystical and quirky with lots of witchy shops....I reckon I'd fit right in! I think I might organise a trip to Glastonbury for my birthday next year and combine it with a visit to Stonehenge. Thank you for the inspiration. And you know who lives near Stonehenge? The wonder that is Weev. Weev, if you're reading this, I'm heading to Stonehenge in February and would LOVE to meet up with you xxx
All good with me. Did a brilliant mindfulness class last night and early yoga class this morning. What with yoga, mindfulness, Ekhart Tolle, reiki etc I really feel like I'm on the right path in my life. Still feels like I'm at the beginning of the path and there's a long way to go but I quite like this path so I'm not so bothered about where I finally end up. Don't feel like rushing... I'm quite enjoying the journey. And I get to hang out with you guys. Even if I spend the rest of my life travelling slowly along this path, not quite sure where I'm heading... I reckon that will be ok.
Lots of love to everyone and 24 more for me please xxxx

And sorry, me again but I just read back and laughed out loud at the coveted gift cards for 1newcreation's birthday in 3 weeks!! I keep meaning to say 1newcreation that you're really funny! I know you're looking at new career opportunities.... Maybe something that incorporates your humour?? It's a gift xxx
And Suze, I hope the baby squirrel is ok. I once tried to save a pigeon with a broken wing and another time I tried to save 2 baby robins that had fallen out of a nest. I phoned a wildlife centre on both occasions and the professional advice was to let nature take it's course. But I struggled with that so I set up a makeshift bird hospital in my garden shed. The pigeon with the broken wing and the baby robins didn't make it but at least I tried. As heartbreaking as it is, I guess we can learn from nature and from the ability of animals to accept things the way they are. That said, my garden shed will double up as a wild animal hospital again in a heart beat. I can try to accept things the way they are but I'll never stop caring. Love you xxxxx

Brrrr happy Friday a.m. and I'm in for 24 hours of sobriety, gratefulness, and sanity @ 0621 Recovery Daylight Time. Doing good already. Went to sleep at 1830 last night...woke up once at 2330 until 0030....went back to sleep until 0445. Weird dreams as always. Grateful feelings and thinking from yesterday spilling over into today. Time to eat a plum and lay on the couch and listen to local news radio.

I go to AA twice a week and am the cake baker for all our soberversaries. I have come a long way from the first few weeks of sobriety when I could'nt leave the house and camped out on this thread. I had so much support from here and I will never forget it.
Love and blessings. Thank you all.

Great post Juliet and so glad you are well!
It's my day off and I'm going to try and make it a healthy one. I figure 38 weeks until Glasto at a pound off a week sounds doable right? Determined to make some positive changes to help my mental health and generally feel a bit better about myself. Day 1 of that so let's see!
24 more please with lots of love ❤❤❤

Have a great day everyone and thank you so much for the warm welcome back 💞💞
