Weekenders April 8-15
IN! Weekenders for another sober weekend, my 327th.
Thank you for opening the thread again this week biminiblue. I have had enough of sitting on the fence for about 3 lifetimes. It's limboland or purgatory. Not a good place.
Sorry to read of your diabetes CK, understand the prognosis is often pretty good these days, fingers crossed that is so for you.
I used to be indecisive but now i'm not so sure. On a T-shirt circa 1980.

Great OP, Bim. Thank you.
Like Mags, I am glad that I jumped off onto the right side; for a long while I thought that I would fall onto the side of a life of alcoholism; how dreadful that would have been. I love sobriety!

Hahaha that cat Andy
The fence is definitely a tricky and uncomfortable place to stay
And the longer we stay on the fence, the pointer those barbs feel.
I’m glad to be off the fence, but like Marty said, it’s a bit rough sometimes, especially the early days. Lots of ups and downs with mood swings for me, but I’m feeling more positive heading into this weekend
It helps, knowing you’re all here for support

Evening all
Thanks for the thread Bim.
I'm IN for another sober weekend, my 11th consecutive one (not quite as impressive as sao's 327!).
I've had sitting on a fence down to a fine art for many years. I now feel like I'm choosing the side that leads to a better life. I do wish I'd made that choice many years ago but as the saying goes "better late than never".
I hope everyone has a great weekend.

Count me in for the weekend! I spent a lot of time on the fence too, and looking back, it must have been barbed wire as it left me miserable. So glad I got off the fence in the right direction.
Willow, I found it hard too when first sober. Mainly anxieties which had been buried for many years. Amazingly it did get better, much better. I’m still happy and grateful I am sober.
CK, all the best with the diabetes.
Robbie congratulations on your 11th consecutive weekend and Saou’s 327 th weekend

Thanks Bim.
I am on my 127th weekend, doesn't seem possible.
I clung on to my fence far too long. Eventually I had no other choice but to jump or drown. I jumped and am now on my 890th day of what is sometimes a bumpy recovery journey, looking for my rainbow.

Kaily I saw this rainbow last weekend. It definitely brought me a moment of real joy seeing it ❤️
As the only sober person there, I know I really felt connected to nature. I’m not sure about the others, I’m sure they liked it, but I know if I’d been drinking too, I would have looked at it and said it was pretty, but not had that feeling of connection with the beauty of nature. I appreciate things more deeply when sober ❤️
