Morning everyone.
Just popped in to say hi and well done to all of you celebrating and well done to those that came straight back after a slip.
Woke in a panic half way through the night... drinking dream... I had a shot of whisky and was upset in my dream as it didn't taste right.... took me a few minutes to realise it was just a dream... phew.... where did that come from?!
Right coffee time catch you all later.
Big hugs xx

Welcome to Weekenders Justin! Congratulations on 7 days, that is definitely a win.

A fire alarm was accidentally set off at work, it was deafening, not what you want at 8:15am. I am so glad not to have endured two minutes of that while hungover as well

Back to work.

Welcome Justin.
The last time I made this joke was 30 years ago. It's probably still as corny.

You're justin time winner.

Hey Petals.
Bet you are glad it was just a dream.
How often did the whisky not taste right... YUCK.

Bonne journée

Morning, weekenders.

Willow - I am MidnightGreen jealous of the beach view)

Justin - A week is a HUGE win. We know! Seriously, I remember when I put a week together it was like conquering Everest - some first of no return points was established.

I've just made a trip to the post office and my card to Trach is on its way. I hope he will make sense of my handwriting).

Time for more coffee and writing for me.

Have a good one, weekenders.

Success sabotage is real, guys.

I am, at least temporarily, living the life I want and I look for every way to screw it up. About 15 minutes ago i was opening a box and cut myself with scissors so deep that blood fountained and I felt so weak I was about to faint.

The cut is ugly, I hope it will heal without an emergency trip to a surgeon though.

And, of course, I am out of bandage or other supplies to treat the wound. I used to have a lot of this stuff. WTF.

Oh no MB! I hope you’re ok, maybe you need to get a doctor to look at it, maybe it’ll need stitches? It sounds deep. I hope you get it sorted out quickly.

Well done on a week Justin, that’s great!

Good morning weekenders!
Congrats on a week, Justin. That's a big big accomplishment … perhaps the toughest!
MB, oh dear! Keep us posted.
VMan, always nice to start the day with a chuckle. Keep 'em coming.
Good morning Sao, Petals, ST, and everyone else checking in today. Wishing you all a sober Wednesday (half-way to the weekend … )!

Morning, happy hump day!

I think I may have picked up something from one of the diseased rug rats at sister-in-laws thanks giving dinner. Feeling 'virusy' this morning.

Thanks, guys.

It stopped bleeding, but it looks scary. I am afraid even to look at it.

No boxing for me for a while, I assume.

Darn!

Looks like I need another comedy to take my mind off it.

Still not sure if it's worth going to doctor or not.

I would get a doctor. When my husband cut his finger so deep that it fountained, it meant he had cut an artery!

You, guys, won't let me get away with relying on a bit of luck)

When do I stop punishing myself for absence of suffering?

Now there is a challenge to get dressed with one hand.
