Good morning girls. Well, Smokey is here with me now. He got 45 minutes from the rescue and puked all over my car

But that's okay. I'll post pics tonight.

All I Can say is I love each and everyone of you and I had fun chatting with you all. I wish we all lived closer. We should do a once a year get together and pic a state each year. For an entire weekend. I think we would get kicked out of whereever we went, but what the hell!

Love you all. Back to work.

Okay---got my kids lunch and had to talk to someone about adopting our foster dog, then I am taking Randy (the quadraplegic) out tomorrow for an outing--he is soo excited...

now i can breath and welcome the new moms....

Blueberry-- love willy wonka-- and I am so very glad that you are here and posting, reaching out for help can be intimidating. When I first arrived, I was shooting up drugs and had basically lost everything..I was such a mess. I found alot of support on here and started seeing an addiction specialist. I used for 15 years and just celebrated my 1st year clean..
It is a great feeling and I hope we can give you some ESH...are you planning on going to meetigs ??

Shirley--congrats on day one, breath and post when you are feeling like having a drink. I know the folks here will be here for you. I read alot too....about my addiction and how to live with it. How about you are you going to meetings ??

IG---another great meditation for the day--I was really missing jayden yesterday. We went to the lake and she loved the lake...I miss that little girl so much...death sucks....

(((((CANDY)))))) congrats on day one...you can do this .....I am here for you always!!!

It is gloomy here today, cloudy so the kids and I are gonna clean their rooms then play games. we had a sleepout last night in the living room and I am glad they are outof school I missed them. They are both begging to go to summer school so I guess I will sign them up today..

madison will be learning spanish--and lucas will be learning about the ocean. It will be fun..just gonna miss them...man I am gonna be a mess in 11 years when madi goes to college...lol

my bassett hound broke his toe but the vet says he will be okay and i have been taking care of the poor guy...no walks for him today..he looked so sad when I left with the other 2 dogs today....

okay... I need to get upstairs and help madi with her room, Just wanted to tell you all that I lurve you and hang in there...

oh yeah---I love the house idea....I will do whatever needs to be done...I am flexible..just ask my hubby...lol wink wink

((((((((MOMS)))))))
much love,
~Beezy

Hi Ladies....it is day four and I am starting to come out of the fog I was in......and really starting to feel positive. I went to a meeting on Sunday night, got in touch with my sponsor, went to another meeting last night and then wham.....I get this call from my dentist. I have a tooth that is absessed so she was calling in a prescription for penicilin. Well, without checking with me first, she had also called one in for vicodin. She called me at work and told me that I have been "red flagged"? WTF does that mean? I did not ask for pain meds and last week I had sent a letter to every one of my doctors requesting that it be clearly marked in my charts to not have narcotic meds prescribed to me (every doctor except this dentist because I only go for cleanings and now I have this absess).
So, does anyone know what she is talking about when she said "I cannot call in pain meds for you because you have been red flagged".???????

I was pretty calm today and taking one step at a time and getting through the day but now my heart is racing and I am feeling all tingly......

Anyone?
Jules

Hi Jules...I don't know if you remember me. I have come and gone from this place several times over the last few months. (Trying to reach out and then stepping away when I relapse.) I have a week today.

About red flagging you. Possibly one or more dr.'s that you sent letters to called the pharmacy that you usually use to note on their records your request not to have narcotics prescribed to you. BTW - you are doing great...and are helping me try one more time to get this thing called sobriety!

Hi Mtn- Hi Jules- I would think that Mtn is right about docs notifying the pharmacy, and it is a good thing they did... for this very reason. Be grateful someone has intervened so you are not put in a very bad situation- you don't even have to think about whether or not you should pick up those meds. Everything happens for a reason.

Keep the positive attitude. You are going to make it. You, too, Mtn.

Thanks for the welcome...one more time! Sigh, maybe I can get to know all of you better yet! Finished my dose of reading for strength and support and am going to go walk my dog. I have a mini doxie named Bentley. I just love him!

I am breathing again...thank you. My nerves are absolutely shot and I am wicked oversensative to just about everything right now and scared to death that I might be in some kind of trouble and I am paranoid and even though I have good, health, clear sober moments.....I find my self obsessing and feeling so shameful of my recent stupidity and disease inflicted actions. I am totally taking responsibility for my actions and I am trying to do what is right but why is it day four and I am still having really bad cravings? I know that a pill or a drink will only makes things worse - but I keep telling my self it would make me feel better right now. Bad thoughts...bad thoughts.....
breathe and post.....
I feel like a nutcase!

Sorry..."WELCOME MTN AND SHIRLIE"....I am not typically this self obsessed.
Welcome to SR, this is a wonderful group of women and MTN.....with every relapse, things have gotten worse.....so I don't have another one in me and I pray that you don't either. If I relapse again, I will end up in jail or an institution or even worse, dead....I have exhausted all other possibilities.

I'll kee[ track pf the bills but as far as the rest of your list I'm in the same boat Sista...I can cook but I am real bad and cleaning up after myself in nthe kitchen and I am one of those exotic messy type cooks

Home alone and feeling the need for comfort food...I'm thinking of spaghetti and meatballs. The thing is, our local newspaper prints a list of everyone arrested...I don't want to see anyone I know. I can't hide forever and know I have nothing to be ashamed of...but I don't want the curious looks, or pity, or gossip....
