LOL yep...It was Spencer Proffer - same guy who did all those metal bands in the 80s - Quiet Riot WASP etc. - as well as stuff like Billy, and The Little River Band.

Good luck soberpotamus. Sounds like a hard day. But packing is the worst when you're tired. Sleep on it.

A woman announced at the AA meeting i attend that another woman had died this past week. I knew her. Not well. She'd periodically talk about her medical issues. Just couldn't stay sober though. She kept trying. It was a grim reminder.

Ice cream time. At least the fireworks stopped.

Thanks, Ruby. We will need a little luck tomorrow.

Going to take care of some hang-dry clothes and then off to bed...

Oh... we will have wifi at the RV park. Not sure how great it will be. Guess I'll catch up with you all later.

I am going to say goodbye everyone. I am tired of putting on a happy face and don't want to drag everyone down like I've been doing to my class.

I'll come back around when and if things improve.

SUID you're not bringing us down at all. Well, not me anyway and I don't think I'm speaking out of turn. You're down but it seems to me that a lot of it is negative self talk in terms of how you think it's impacting us. You've been awfully quiet lately. How about talking about what's going on? Instead of playing it in your head, thinking it's dragging things down

I did a quick meditation for 18 mins and went in a trance that had nothing to do with the guided meditation I was listening to haha
Practice makes perfect though and I feel really relaxed

Like I said UP it makes no sense to isolate more and cut yourself off from your main support.

Noone wants you to leave, man. That's just not true

SUID: chat here. I'm just watching the rain trying not to eat a second dinner
Although it was tasty and it's a shame to waste food.
Okay so, I'll eat it.
See, easy to chat about nought.

Morning everyone

A solid 8 hours sleep last night - superb

SUID if you are feeling bad then that is the most important time to post, please don't feel you have to be positive all the time. It might not help to put things down in black and white here (if you want to) but it might

I ran down to the Limehouse Basin this morning where the canal, the river Lea join the Thames. The first time flood control was attempted here was over 1200 years ago by Alfred the Great who built an earth dam, when the Vikings sailed their longships into the river Lea Alfred men tore down the dam and stranded the long ships.
