Bro and I didn't do any packing today. We'll have to work hard Sunday to make up for it.

End of Day 175 - Had a good day at Waikiki Beach. Kids had fun playing in the water. Bit tired since we had a long flight from Seattle.
Stay sober all. Good night from Honolulu!

Jealous CalmSelf. If you can and have the opportunity, take a walk up DimondHead.

I joined class of april, still sober and currently working so not drinking which is good. Just got over covid and feel horrendous. It lasted about a month. I gained 15 lbs since I just sat around all day in the end.
Anyways, I'm depressed, fat, and uncomfortable and just trying not to give into the AV after my shift is over.

You’ve got this anxiousrock!!

Had a burst of energy today so have so far carpet cleaned half the living room as carpet had muddy footprints on it and looked horrid. Got all my washing out on the line and cleaned the kitchen. I’ve got this thing for Hollands Steak and Kidney puddings at the moment (Uk people might know what these are) so just about to steam one…so yummy!

Hope little Chauncey is feeling ok and love to all x

Hello all,
I'm happy to check in, sober, on Sunday morning. Anxiousrock, I'm sorry you feel so miserable. You'll get back to where you want to be as you regain strength.

MantaLady, I'm in awe of all you're able to accomplish in the face of your ongoing treatment! We used to get steak and kidney pie for school dinners. Not my favourite!

Samantha, hope you’re feeling better from covid soon. Working used to help me take my mind off booze too. Good to have a plan to distract yourself.

MantaLady, pleased you’ve got an appetite. Enjoy your steak and kidney pudding.

Calmself, enjoy Honolulu! Sounds great!

In these threads, I keep focusing on my dear Penguins, which saoutchik, you are responsible for. I keep thinking about penguins when looking at your profile pic.

They've lost one of two away games, but they crushed NY at home last night. Tomorrow night, there'll be another game at PPG. Which, of course, the Pens will win.

It's the first round of 7 (so, first to 4 wins)

Again I'll say, mark my words, the Pittsburgh Penguins will take the cup this year. It's a lock.

Good Morning Weekenders

Polaroid, I keep thinking you mean real penguins when you mention your dear penguins.

Marty, thinking of you and Chauncey x

MantaLady, hope you slept well.

Aw I just saw Dennis Waterman passed away. I loved him in the Sweeney with John Thaw in the 70’s. He was a likeable actor in the U.K. he will be missed. R.I.P Mr. Waterman. 🙏

Hope Monday finds us all with a sober weekend behind us. I’ve found they are the best sort whatever life throws at us.

Love to all Weekenders xxxx

My usual interests didn't seem very appealing.I just kind of sat around and watched the football, which normally I am happy to do, but it felt a bit meh. It's not like I wanted to drink, but I guess drinking was such a big part of my Sunday's, I am noticing that there is a hole in my day sometimes. Not that it appeals to me anymore, going into a drunken stupor, but I guess this is my life now. The alternative is horrible so I'm good with it. It will pass. I feel good today.
