shaky hands and humming head...odd vision too...:)
 

hi there. Six hours and no beer...nearly a record for me...am pushing through a hangover. normally would just down a beer or thirty to get rid of it....but dont want another hang over tomorrow. Anyway...must get back to the dishes and house work...i suppose... thrilling hey?..gotta get rid of the bottles from last night...Yuck...hate the smell of stale beer...:)

hey, karla....you can make it, hon......you are doing fine.....keep busy....do things to take your mind off of drinking.....and keep posting....

Karla, if all else fails, go to sleep. You can do it!

HI Karla,

Good for you!~

Ah yes, I remember trying to kill the hangover. The vicious cycle of it all! Eventually, you do have to sober up and it is a misery.

You can do this! Keep posting!!

its so stupid...I am a big stupid-head...I am trying to pack some clothes for my daughter and I as we are going away this weekend...but I cant seem to get it done...Im just walking from room to room opening and shutting cupboards leaving little piles of "Maybe" clothes everywhere...
have to do the dishes...have filled the sink...put the glasses in but kinda stopped progress on that too... Geez....Ill be ninety before I get to sweeping the floor!! he he

ha ha ha! I was just strorming around the house getting really grumpy because I couldnt find my keys. I tipped out my bag...looked in the fridge, checked the front door, looked in the dog kennel...was going insane in manner of lobotomised inpatient when I found them...

They were in my bloody hand!!

Hi Karla

I am 24 hours out from 3 day binge. My hands shake so that I could barely sign a check. But its one day under my belt and my appetite is already returning. I know what you mean about being scattered-I wandered all over the housedoing a little here and alittle there. But at least some laundry got done. I wish you good luck from Florida...Melissa

You know ausie, I did the same thing after 33 days of sobriety.

Not after a hang over.. That is funny, glad to see you're using that sense of humor....

One time at work, I was walking a round the class room looking for my glases and the teacher I work with says, what are you looking for. So I look at her and say, my glasses. She starts laughing her arst off so bad she can't talk. Finaly she looks at me and says, they are on your head.

Later((((((((hope3))))))))

ha! thats funny, ive done that too..I couldnt find my sunglasses to go to the shops so I grabbed my dodgy spare pair. When I got to the shops I pulled my sunnies up on top of my head only to find that the other pair was already there! Id walked all the way down to the shop with one pair on my face and on pair on my head...doofuss!

Oooh..oooh! Seven hours!

omg....karla!!! i was just yelling at my kids "where's the remote!!!'

i was sitting on it...

i think i spend too much time on my butt....it's starting to go numb....at least you are attempting to get something done.....

hugs
ayla

LOL Just don't lose your sobriety!

Super Hugs

that made me laugh so much! Dont you love it when you blame everyone else and high horse in manner of self important monarch only to discover that it was your fault in the first place?..then you have to go into damage control like "well, every other time you were to blame so I just guessed that this was the same thing"...looking like a total numnuts ...watching your pride ooze out of you like the melting witch from Wizard of Oz...."what a world...what a world"

Oh Karla, I can tell you're going to be a joy to have on here! I'm glad to see the sense of humor. It helps when we can laugh at ourselves. Better to laugh than cry I believe.

I can relate to where you're at. Shaky, unfocused, blurry head and vision, can't seem to get it together. Trust that it's completely normal and the longer you go without the liquor it will get better. There is a saying in AA "this too shall pass" and it will. In the meantime, if you like chocolate ice cream try eating some of that. I've heard that it is good for cravings and the shakes. A piece of chocolate or a tablespoon of natural honey are good too.

Big hugs to you and all the newbies we have.
Kellye

One pair of sunglasses on your face and one on your head! That's priceless Karla!
:)

Did you make it to hour 8?

Please keep posting. This is the first time I laughed today!

My house is a tip but I don't care. I am sober. I am a useless waste of oxygen with the attention span of a gnat but so what?

After 4 days of detox my hair looks like I put my finger in a light socket.

:lmao

I am starting a strike on house work, all that want to join,

put down your brooms, your mops and vacuum cleaners,

and

Pick up funny joke.

Ha, I agree with Kelly Australia, you are going to be

alot of fun....hugs, (((((((((hope3)))))))

I'm glad you're getting through this Karla!

Keep posting and let us know how it's going.

Karla yesterday I was so proud of myself I remembered where I had put something about a month before, then I spent 20 minutes looking for something I had just set down 20 minutes before! I am over 5 months and I am still improving.

I can see you now with 2 pairs of glasses on at the same time.

Keep strong (((Karla))), I am thinking of you.
:)

Good Morning Karla,
