Re: Class of April 2020 Part Two

I really love Karen's idea of that letter. Big time.

And love you very much dear Red and happy to see you. And yes, sometimes it takes that god-awful hangover to really say no more. I am done. I know that feeling and even though you feel awful right now, in a day or two you are going to have a big smile.

And thank you dear Karen and sorry I didn't end up texting again yesterday...I never got my nap. I got a migraine instead from the noise and paint smell. But the fact that I got your texts in the middle of this was really lovely. A smile in the middle of a crappy day.

OK....love and good morning and goodnight to everyone.

Re: Class of April 2020 Part Two

My husband and I are pretty lucky in all of this. We both love doing our own thing for hours. He works on music a lot of the time and I have a zillion plants. So I always have a lot to do. Very grey and rainy here today. Actually feels good for some reason.

Re: Class of April 2020 Part Two

I've had a few days of feeling really down, out of sorts, sad, lost and frustrated. I'm so glad I didn't drink, really grateful down to my bones. I realize I've gotten completely away from practicing my daily recovery things, staying present, positive and connected to my higher power. I just let this depression run away with me. I'm back to being determined to keep recovery first. I'm so blessed in so many ways. It's nuts for me to live in fear and sadness. I know it's a choice and I'm choosing joy today.
Day 20 and going strong again!
I hope everyone is feeling good and staying well and healthy today. Thanks for being here, all of you. I hope your migraine is better, Venus!
Feel better quick, Red. I hope the others in our class check in soon, too.

My last two attempts to post just disappeared when using 'post quick reply'
Maybe why the others that were here last week aren't now posting?
later

I suspected that, too. I wish we could send them instructions on using the new format.

Hi Venus,
Chrome. With the Duckduckgo plugin that blocks the ad tracking.
I did try to say to you earlier that the reno's won't go on forever and peaceful silence will return as the neighbours get the invoices for all that work, lol.

Very weird. But that might explain some absences?!?

I thought about PMing people but there's too many - so I put out an APB in the main forum

Hi Dee.Yes, that's what I see:
The message you have entered is too short. Please lengthen your message to at least 1 characters.
'Post Reply' works just fine.

You can test out various styles by scrolling down to the very bottom left hand side of the page and using the drop down menu there. To pick a style permanently please go to USER CP>edit options> and scroll down. Some styles are experiencing issues with quick reply right now...but reply to thread/full reply works and all the smileys seems ok. So...come back !!! Perhaps some of us can recommend mobile styles that are working? D
