Erratic I am so glad you have your daughter to lean on. You are doing great, those pesky cravings will dwindle in the next few weeks. Stay strong!

Lamb I hope you are feeling better today. Way to go on day 18!

If I drank today I'd be coming out of a blackout right now feeling terrible checking my phone to see who o texted/rang, what I posted. I'd want to crawl into a hole and die.

I'm better off sober. I know this. But the temptation won't leave me. Hopefully the Campral does something in the next few days.

Last show I watched was Trinkets on Netflix. Haven't finished it yet. Must get back into it. It's pretty good, about three teenage girls with shoplifting addictions. They go to Shoplifters Anonymous.

You watching anything?

Just started the new Hugh Jackman sci fi movie called Reminiscence.

And waiting with baited breath for the new seasons of CSI Vegas (the original CSI with Grisham, yay) and the new season of Dexter.

EDIT....Shoplifters Anonymous...a good idea. Shoplifting is a scary addiction.

Well I brushed my teeth, washed my face and moisturized. That's basically the only self care I managed today. Laid out my nighttime pills and a glass of water. Going to hit the hay in the next hour or two.

I hope that you have a good night's sleep FF. You as well Erratic.

I hope that you get some good information from that book Lamb. I finished it last week. It's certainly enlightening, and just reinforces that we are making the right decision to end the cycle of destruction.

Did Miss Bacon and Cantaloupes finally pass out and go to bed? Her new profile pic must be a live stream from her bedroom security camera.

Day 24 here. Not much new to report. All good. Talk to you all later this evening.
