Good Morning;
I was a lie-abed this morning with my coffee. I can only post from my office computer since I forgot my password and that computer is the only with a memory of it--but it won't share.
I got a new puppy this Summer to play with my cattle dog girl Stella, and they spend the early hours in frolic across bed, stomach, and even fragile bits, so eventually I gave up and came down for breakfast. Which was lovely bacon, sausage, and eggs in the giant new nonstick we got yesterday, so even easy clean up.
I've had some relapse issues this past year but that finally seems to be under control. I just feel so much better in every single way sober, I'm always astonished how I think a beer might ever be a good idea. It just isn't. Not for me and not ever.
Anyway, I've been keeping an eye on things from other computers which don't know my magic password so hence very little posting. But I miss all y'all* (* the plural form in my region of "ya'all", an informal register collective noun).
Today's plans are to take my fresh batch of homemade herbal tea and distribute and chill in mason jars, attend Farmer's market for some red peppers and fall produce like orange and purple califlower, last tomatoes, some great eggplant et al, and make a ragout for lunch.
I thought briefly of exercise, but then wisely decided to leave to to Sao to surrogate
To all who are struggling, take one small step to get back on the upward spiral, and then do it again when you can. To all who are strong in sobriety, thanks for the role model. Much appreciated.

Be kind to yourself.
Drunkenness amplifies situations to the level of the highest drama.
If you stop drinking, you will be able to be mentally still long enough to take stock of your life.
Even the worst situations can be faced and withstood when we're sober; when we're drunk, everything is magnified 100 x, and we end up making things much worse than they have to be.
You can stop the cycle! Despite how you may feel right this instant, you are not hopeless. None of us is!
You've been sober before and done well. You enjoyed life so much more.
The day will come when you'll enjoy life again.
Please stick with us.
Don't be ashamed. We have been with you a long time, and we care for you.
