Have any of you guys watched the series, "Once Upon a Time"? It's on Netflix and I've been binge watching it for a week or so...man, I really like it. It's smart and beautiful to watch. Well, it would probably be the girls who would like it. It's fantasy/with just a little fighting. Gorgeous sets and costumes, though. Just stunning. It's a high budget series, for sure.

I just had a slight panic moment and had to go online to make sure they weren't removing it in the next ten days - like Netflix tends to do. Whew. Not through December. It's got 134 episodes, not sure I'm gonna make it in the next ten days.

They better leave NCIS, too.

I am up after just 4 hours of sleep again. Will try to make most of this extra time.

Morning/night, everyone.

BixBees505, I hope all goes well with your family situation and you enjoy your thanksgiving dinner

Sao i hope all goes well with your job. I don't know if you have heard of a book called the alchemist well its basely about finding your treasure or your calling in life, i have so many issues at work that i just hate what i do at the moment and at the people i work with so it may me feel i lost my calling or missed out my treasure

ha ha way of the topic Sao, i hope all goes well.

Livinglikegold , well done let me know how it goes with the antabuse. when i went to the doctor and disclosed my drinking the doctor wanted to prescribe antabuse but i said no i usually don't like education unless is a benzo :headband

Glimer i have been hearing these stories about mouses eating their babies a lot, talk about bad parenting ha ha and the babies mouses don't end up drinking well done

so weird i have cravings and it is very early in the morning i read a post about somebody going to the supermarket and seeing 6 bottles of wine at 25 per cent

my mind just went berserk thinking about those 6 bottles of wine i figured it will last me forth 3 days weekend 2 each day oh boy stinking thinking

LiveLikeGold - Congrats on 2 digits!

Healthyandsober - 25 cents per bottle? Should be really high-quality stuff) Jokes aside, when you pay for poison you pay through the nose regardless of its price. Because it's not face value of a bottle that counts, but what we pay with afterwards. Which is eventually turns out to be our life which we lose drop by drop, every day.

Stay strong.

As for sleep issues, I had some insane insomnia at about 3 months sober. Ask your doc for some medicine. For me melatonin worked well.

Breathe.

Okay, H&S, I'm giving you six of something else to think about:

There is always a way to change your thoughts.

Good - it has hypnotized you with its infinite mousie wisdom.









That Gilmer ruined with her pop-in eat-the-babies story.
