Good night all. I now get to listen to my husband and pig snore me to sleep. Enjoy the sober evening.

Zzzzz. Snoring pig and husband? Yikes! Hope it quiets down or you get ear plugs.

I'm off for bed too. Quiet tonight.

Nice job AllieKat=)

Mesa Man- Peanut butter and Sriracha? Two things I enjoy- I may have to experiment tomorrow...

Getting Smarter- my husband and cat snore. It makes me laugh pretty hard sometimes when they're both going. A pet pig?

Congrats, AllieKat!!

Melki, care to share? I hope you feel better.

I got my first mani-pedi with my little daughter last week. The lady took one look at me and realized I was not a pink lover. She immediately brought out the grey polish.

Pouncer, do you remember the bleeding armadillo groom's cake from Steel Magnolias? The image of this cake comes to mind when I pull out the gray polish. Funny. Love that movie.

I'm behind on SR reading! Congrats to all who are making it sober whether hour to hour, or the long haul.

In Russia. Long flight. Back hurts.
4 hour bus ride later today. My body is not sure when to accept my opinion on when to sleep. The mobile version of sr is brutal. Booze bottles prominantly displayed with prices. Cheap.
bottled water is cheaper. Went for walk last nite. Saw a few locals carrying open beer on the street. I was one last time here. Always fit in with local drinkers all around the world. Not no more.
cannot find adapter-converter yet.
My weekend is just beginning. Air show in Sochi tomorrow.

Saturday Roll Call!!!

Ken / Weasel
HERE!

Oh thank goodness vacation is over! Hahaha. Vacation for me are days everyone else is working and I am not. At least while I am on a staycation... Had I gone away this would still be a vacation day. I can bend that truth can't I?

Hello routine! My dear friend. I have so missed you and my sobriety I learned relies heavily on your being by my side.

Hope everyone is doing well this Sunday! Get up.. Get out.. Get moving... Go easy on your sober selves. And have a great day!

K

I learned a bunch of things this week. I think I will write about them.

You are all so wonderful. While we do this every weekend I really needed all of you and you were right there. A very very deep heartfelt thank you.

Ok.... So onward to the gym! I am torn between the gym and the water walks. I miss the weight lifting. So I think a water walk for 4 miles and then hop over to the gym to pick things up and put them down.....

See you people's in a few!

Your grateful bus driver.... K

Good morning K and glad to hear you sound so spry!

Woke in a sweat from a rather unpleasant dream. A rarity on both fronts. I'd almost forgotten how often I used to break out into the wretched drunken sweats during the night. Not missing that at all. .

Gym time coming up for me too. I love it. The routine and self discipline of it all helps me stay focused. The 'feel good' endorphins help me fight melancholy. And , well, the frivolous part of me likes the outward results. Looking strong helps me feel more confident on this journey (and my wife likes it too.....win.win. ). Wishing all the best day.
