Happy Monday Weekenders, yup, some of us are in OT because of Labor Day. This weekend continues to be stressful. I can hardly wait to go back to work tomorrow. Which is just plain sad. lol. Anyway, helping a friend out installing some tough software today and doing some cleanup around the house.

Ken, I want me some of that chowder! Please let us know how it turned out.

Wishing everyone a peaceful and sober day.

Peace,
Cas

Weasel, you always make me hungry. Last weekend it was some sort of filet with peppers and now corn chowder!

Day 15 today. If I were drinking, I would use a long weekend like Labor Day to really go all out on the wine, making sure that I had no evening plans so that I could drink as much as I wanted alone. Pretty sad. Want to leave that part of my life far, far behind.

8 pm here in the UK begining to get dark earlier now !

sending it your way my American friends , nice clean and tidy beds , new crisp sheets , have a shower and go to bed early go on you deserve it ...

Once you've gone to bed and are all snuggly there is NO way you could possibly want to get out again to start drinking .

I've got a new lemon and tea tree shower gell im going to try

Bestwishes, m

Mecanix, new shower gels are the best! I just got some rosemary mint concoction that I love. With no more money going toward wine, I don't feel guilty in the least about other treats

The chowder is cooking.... Bacon rendered and the red bell pepper... Vidalia onion... Red taters... Heavy cream... Garlic.... Mmmmmmmmm.

Cooking has a soft spot for me... Sobriety does too!

That helps me, too! I like that analogy a lot. Thanks for that.

When it gets cooler down here, I'm going to make a big pot of chicken and sausage gumbo. It's nice to hear that one can still cook without drinking, lol. I haven't tried that yet.
