If there is nothing precluding people with mental issues from serving then it looks like you're ok to serve. I'd love to do jury service but will never be called.hope all goes well

I hope you had a good day today @samwitch!

I can relate on the anxiety piece and just feeling like you’re going to pass out. My hands and feet will sometimes shake uncontrollably. Thankfully my drinking didn’t cause tremors, it’s just that anxiety takes ahold of my body sometimes.

I’m still hoping that it’ll dissipate eventually.

Checking on for day 11 . Sleep cycle is getting to normal . Fog is almost gone . I still experience lots laziness and lack of motivation to do any thing . Just going with the motion & daily chores .

Just woke up at 5am after going back to sleep. Hopefully I can stay up until 9pm and resist the urge to take my bedtime pills at 4pm and end the day already. Gotta get into a normal sleeping pattern.

Life is good. I have cigarettes. I'm going for a walk shortly. A website I rely on for support is down for the next couple of days which sucks but they're making improvements so that's cool. Looking forward to AA at 1pm if I'm not in court.

Thanks all for your kind words and support. All is going okay at the moment. Pledging for today. Day 145.

This says there's 85 people looking at this thread right now?!?

I'm tired but still checking in to continue this sober life. It's going good. No pink clouds but I'm managing. I'm excited to enjoy another weekend of peace, rest, and lemonade.

Happy friday!

I think you are inspiring people. And I hope some of those people come and join the group.

FiveTries

Thanks VC! I hope more people join as well, it seems a bit quiet. This is working for me now so I'm glued to SR.

I wonder if it is real or a glitch. I have never seen 100+ people viewing a thread before.

FiveTries

I'm thinking it must be a glitch. It keeps going up.
How is your Friday going?

I am being lazy—it was 23C (73F) yesterday, and today it is 2C (35+F), so I am sitting here with a coffee and cold fingers, lol.

FiveTries

lol

It's warming up here, the other day it was -5F.
It's 30F right now. For me it's always freezing though, since my wife controls the thermostat. She had all the fans on in the house when it was -5 out.
It doesn't matter how cold it gets she's carrying on about how hot she is. Meanwhile, I'm wearing a hoodie in the house and my fingers are also frozen.

venuscat

Oh gosh, that is hard to deal with.

I thought I kept it cool—I have the heating on 62/3F, and I am lucky that is warm enough for my husband.

FiveTries

62/3?!

Oh wow we are above that at 67/8 usually.
Looks like I better keep quiet lol

venuscat

That is way too hot for me.

Sorry for your loss, Ral.

Day 11 here. A little work. A meeting. Now gonna watch some womens softball. My team is Oklahoma and those girls are pretty dang good. Major pain this morning from the Pancreas. Unsettled at the moment. AA meeting was talking about gratitude. Even though this pancreas issue sucks and has been horribly painful and a pain in the a__, I can say I am grateful for it bc it forced my hand to do something I've wanted to do for a long time. Not only can I and will I heal physically, I can now heal mentally and spiritually. Really enjoying the fellowship of AA. That is a sentence I never thought I would utter.

Have a great day/night Peeps.

venuscat

I hope you keep getting better every day, dear Offthemast. I am sure pancreas issues are very painful and scary. s
So how was the meeting? Is it a good group?

I used to play softball—I am an Aussie, and it is huge there. I was a pitcher, a leftie.
