beezy that was so cool to get a message from that...whatever you call it...power source. I've got a fever and I'm wrapped up in a blanket with a cup of hot tea shivering, then I felt a whole new wave of shivers reading this.

jules, am I reading/remembering correctly that you haven't taken any Rx for your pain? That is so amazingly strong and inspirational for everyone reading.

ruby your sibling party sounds fun. Mine are fun to hang out with at family gatherings but I wouldn't want to be stuck alone with just them.

my eyes are crossing. I've got to go lay down. I hated that this dumb forum was down all day when I was feeling like a mental mess (but healthier) and wanted to talk to someone. I guess my brain was ahead of the rest of my body in feeling bad.

(((TAM)))) I want to be you!!! LOL, you sound awesome, health, happy, I am so proud of you. Too funny about the karaoke, my DH and other friends do that , I never would, drunk or not, but who knows, never tried it happy content and sober!! You need to raise a glass of your favorite beverage, and scream outloud" LOOK AT ME NOW"!!!! Graeta job Tammy

((RUBY)) My DH too, loves golf, i feel kinda bad though because when the kids were born he quit his league and now only golfs a little. I think I might tell him to start back this year

((BEEZY)) wow that is amazing, the hawk. Prayers to you and your family

((Jules)) how are u today????

((C'est))) poor mommy, hope you are feeling better.. I am here

To all the mommies!!!!!!!!!, grandpa's and guy friends
I MISS YOU!!! xoxo

Hi everyone... I was just about to google SR withdrawal forums....


Jules, I am hoping to hear that the pain is subsiding... Are you able to sleep through the night yet?

C'est sorry to hear you are sick...take care of your self... no.. even better make the rest of the family take care of you for a change...

Beezy, I think every time we don't give in to our craving it makes us stronger for next time

Tam, Pookie...do you play golf? I've tried a few times but I SUCK! I think it's these big ole boobs that keep getting in my way! And my language! I was even appalled with myself! The f bombs just kept coming out of my mouth with every stroke I took... he he!

NYC, how did the cheer competition go? Our last one is March 17-18. St. Patrick's Day...one of my favorite days of the year. That day will be a test! Ok, back to cheerleading...my cheeta is trying out for next years 8th grade team on Wed. She's so calm and confident...certainly doesn't get that from me. I've not been calm and confident a day in my life! So, I'll be the nervous one sitting by the phone Wednesday night, and she'll be at her other squad's practice with not a care in the world....

C'est, I really really hope you aren't getting the bug that Scoot and I had! It was a doozy! Scoot, I take it your voice is back?

Oh..btw, I think I ate my weight in potato chips yesterday. Could that be why my jeans are so freakin' tight right now?! I hate my lack of willpower!

Hi everyone!! Am I ever relieved to find you all here!

(((C'est))) Hope you feel better soon. The best thing about being sick is that you have a perfectly good excuse to get cozy and not DO anything. Sending you some virtual chicken noodle soup.

Beezy! That is such a moving story about the hawks. Somehow it reminds me of native Indian spirituality (there's a word for it I think, I just don't remember it) where certain tribes believe that animals have been humans in a past life and have been sent back to be guides for us. Good for you for reaching inside of yourself to find the strength to close that cabinet door for good. I am so proud of you.

Tam and Ayla -- I simply love that you two were simultaneously singing karaoke. And Ayla, I'm so sorry to hear about your friend's mom. That disease is so truly devastating.

Hope everyone is having a good day. I feel kind of queasy today which, thankfully, has translated into my not eating all day long. Hope I'm not coming down with a virus too...

Stay strong girls (and guys).

CS

Ruby-I played golf all right, stroke, shot, stroke , beer, divot, double, you get the point. I am not too good, but did have fun, I used to be a Bud Light girl and drove the caddie to all the golfers, so with me, i don't know golf without alcohol, sad
I would like to try again these days, maybe that would be a neat little thing for hubby and me to bond, yeah right!! LOl

Little Becca has found her voice, so she sits there and looks at you with that beautiful face and then screams, AAAHHHH, and laughs, too funny

((Curly)) poor babies, it is so sad when they are sick, especially bronchitis, it was commonplace when my son was little, i hope they get better soon, as for the cruise, I am sure these wonderful Mom's will have good advice for you, I , personally don't think I could do it, so i better not try to give advice

Ahh we always come in last, we are a small school 5 division and took all 17 girls that tried out... some have no clue... and my daughters are the only one that can tumble..oh well... it was fun... they were pretty mad one girl went to a sleep over Sat night and decided not to come... screwed up the whole stunt... I glad it over it was our last... My girls rather focus on gymnastics anyway...

Pookie... lol I didn't know anything without alcohol until 8 month ago, I am often surprised at all of the things that can be done without a shot.

Curly, I feel like that sometimes... not wanting to be sober... but than I try to figure out what not being sober will fix... it will pas... I've done two sober vacations, the plane was tough.... you'll do it and have fun too...

Hello.

I could not resist a pun here. 3 days back on the site and I'm already joking. I have gained 40 lb. Since I dropped the little bag of zippy pills and traded them for HUGE Zepakotes, Trazadones, and Seroquel. So....instead of typing away and writing something HUGE, I am HUGE and typing away...

Thanks. I actually lost a long repsonse that I was quite proud of..maybe too proud hmmm.


Love,
