Morning from a windy North Lincolnshire

We travelled through torrential rain yesterday on the motorway. Fortunately most drivers drove to the road conditions.

Kaily I imagine it’s not easy giving up sugar, I’d like to cut down myself someday.

Sao, scary spider, how does a tiny little spider scare the biggest of people, it’s a mystery.

After a busy day yesterday I’m ready for a relaxing day at home, reading or watching a series on tv.

Snoozy, good to see you love. I know you’re going through a lot at the moment, so please remember to take care of yourself first so you can be there for your family and friends. ’s

Another sober Saturday on the cards. Yaaaay

Hi, Vinny.

Thanks for asking)

Life.. I don't know...Ok, I suppose, but still lacking that zest for life, can't shake my emotions back into aliveness.

Hi Weekenders!!

I've never suffered from that lycanthropy, but I'm pretty sure my wife has!! (ba-dum-bum). Haha.

Glad to be here with all you awesome people - have a great day

Sober Saturday morning never gets old. Not even a little bit.

The world is my oyster. I can go and do whatever I want. So many possiblities!

I had to turn on the heat for the first time this morning. I noticed yesterday that all the trees suddenly switched on their psychedelic coloring. I know where this leads...better get to the zoo today to enjoy the not-too-hot-not-too-cold Goldilocks weather.

Nice to see you MidnightBlue. I miss your posts.

I won't drink today.

Hi Everyone;

I’m in and glad to see you all—my SR sober friends.
I pretty much gave up seeing all my IRL friends when I quit drinking as socializing with them was always a booze affair.
I need to build new relationships but that is harder over 50 and with limited free time. I hope to change that in retirement.

Things are going well but I have been Uber busy,
Just a hint of Fall here I’m, but mostly still in the lower 90 degrees range so no heat needed yet.

In fact, just bought a freestanding hammock rack for enjoying the days as they slowly get cooler. I love lounging in a hammock in the Fall especially.

Happy Saturday. I had horrible cravings and AV this morning. I really was certain this evening was going to be spent drinking. But I white knuckled through, went to the gym. I went to the grocery, by the time I got home I was ready to eat dinner and watch a movie. No cravings. I will make it to 8 weeks AF when I wake up tomorrow.
