Thanks for the song, Cat - any ballady-type things? I'm a bit too old for electric guitars!

Had a drinking dream last night - dreamt someone got me a real beer instead of the AF I asked for and I was halfway down the bottle when I realised. I was so annoyed I was back to Day One! Glad when I woke up.

Hope all well - another sober adventure today. Huge winds expected later here in UK.

Lovely Alice Cooper track but I can’t get the second one to work Dee.

Good morning everyone

Drinking dreams are quite disturbing sometimes aren’t they Em. I’ve had quite a few. I’m always very relieved to realise they weren’t real!

I had an unexpected late night last night (long story) so I’m really tired this morning, but even being really tired is a million times better than being hungover.
It’s going to be an extra coffee day I’m thinking….

Great song, Dee - many thanks - just what I needed - made me realise how much time I've wasted on booze. Enough is enough.

Sleep quality is one of the best things about not drinking, Willow. BTW, we are 7 weeks in about two and a half hours. GMT, that is.

Night all - thanks again, Dee - I'm a new Alice Cooper fan.

You know, I looked and missed the extra bracket....and here is me doing a copyediting course.
I could see that the youtube code was right, and I was stumped.

I bought my first Alice Cooper album when I was 15 (From The Inside) and my mother confiscated it. I really can't blame her.

Long couple days here. One of organizations that I do work for (as a volunteer board member) is borrowing a large sum of money. We have bank proposals but one of the other board members is pushing one over the other and has shared confidential information with his favorite. It’s been kind of stressful and this whole drama is really unnecessary. It’s worn me out the last couple days. Thankfully, my sobriety has stayed intact without any trouble. No vocal AV to speak of. I’m very grateful for that. I just wanted to share it with you all.

You must be exhausted Scott. Look after yourself. I’m glad the AV has been quiet.

Yes Em, 7 weeks!

And yes, I’m tired tonight. I also spent a good chunk of the day working with an auditor on our organization books. I need a raise 😄

CongratulationsWillow and Em
Hope you have a better day Scott, good to vent and get it out. I to have had a harassed couple of days. Nothing awful, just normal life/family things we all have. Nothing ever just seems to run smoothly does it. Things always sort themselves out though and a fuzzy head on top of stresses certainly doesn't help us through these things. I'm finding quite a sense of achievement of marching through these normal niggles with a cuppa instead of a glass of wine in the evenings.
We are waiting on a big storm here today. its going to be quite nasty so stay safe if your in the UK.

Thanks, Dee, Willow, Scott, Cat and BB - where's Chancellor? He? She? is 7 weeks tomorrow, I think.

We're gathering momentum
