Honey, I'm home!! Back from the aquatic class. It was great. Learned lots of new exercises and new techniques.

We're taking the kids to see the movie Cars today. My son is so excited. Full of extra energy!! He told me this morning, "See, I'm cooperating!!" Had to wake my husband up so he could see that!! LOL

Keep rolling on with the bus gang. Life doesn't stop, we gotta keep on keeping on!!

I'm not quitting or giving in or up either. One day at a time, that how it works for me.

All my friends (( A-Z )) lets stay on the bus and not quit just for today!

Love you all,

liveweyerd Day 20.......So, are you off the taper meds yet? How is it going? I'm glad you joined us on the DQ bus. It's a WILD RIDE!!!!

Alera Day 245........Haven't seen you around in a while. Hope all is well!

Nogard/Kevin Day 386.......You're cold now and we are getting blazing hot! It was a typical early summer day today. Hot and humid with wild thunder storms in the late afternoon. Even lost my internet access for a little while. I didn't know what to do!!

Phinneas Day 602.......So glad to hear you are going back to work. I know that must feel good. Sending lots of good luck thoughts and prayers your way.

LuLu70/Laura-Lu day 840.......Be kinda silly to write myself a message, but oh well--Good to see ya, Laura-lu!

Little Missy Day 678.......I love your stories, too. Little ones are so great. I went to visit one of my best friends today. She has a two year old and a two month old, both boys. The two year old threw a temper tantrum when we all went downstairs, and then a little while later, threw another one because we went back up! Good thing he's pretty cute!!!!

Hope4life/Cheryl Day 23......Is that right on the day count, Cheryl? Glad to see you doing well. I know it's hard, but you can get through it!

True Blue/Janet Day 10......Really glad to hear from you and know you are okay. Hope you will come around more often!

Trish (((Miracle))) We miss you, darlin'......

Denise/Wingsfree......You don't have to count days, just make today count. You know we love and support you no matter what. Keep coming back!

Laci.....So good to see you. Sending love right back to ya.

Ash......So sorry to hear about your back. Pain definitely sucks. I've got some weird thing going on with my jaw right now. It keeps popping very painfully any time I open my mouth wide (like to yawn.) It is a royal pain in the mouth.

Kath Day......Where you been? We miss you!

1_day@_a_time Day 1432......What's up with you, Tom. We could use some of your ESH!

Gianna Day 127......Stick your head in here sometime! We miss ya!

2dayz Day 705......I know what you mean about wanting to go to work. I don't necessarily feel that way all the time, but I often get really suprised when I realize I haven't missed a day of work without a legitimate reason for over a year. It is a good feeling.

Dan Day 330......So, is the grass greener?

Bonnie Day 1244......Good to see ya! How is sunny CA these days?

JaySee Day 639......Where have you been? Wish you'd pop in and say hello!

Luckyv2/Vic Day 16......Thanks for asking about me, Vic. That makes me feel good. Glad to hear you are doing well!

Lee/Justme57 Day 959......Don't make us come and hunt you down!

Time2Surrender Day 381......When's the last time you posted here, huh? Did I miss it or are you hangin' out elsewhere these days? Hope you are doing well!

Cathy31 74 days......I'm so glad you decided to come back to us, hon'. We need you here!

Miss Communicat/MC Day 188......Okay--so I know you haven't posted in at least the last 20 posts. Where have you been? Hope all is well with you!

Whew!!!! That was a lot, but now I am all caught up. Happy weekend, everyone. I'm being extremely lazy. Just watched my new favorite movie, "Garden State." I love it, but it always makes me a little bit melacholy. Young love.........

Oh yeah, I have another sonogram tomorrow. Guess we'll see if the cysts have magically reappeared, since they magically disappeared. Pains still there, just not as bad.

Nothing I can do about it. It's out of my control (like most things). Will just wait and see.

Good Morning DQ'rs...I hope this is a wonderful day for everyone.

Sending my love back to all of you. Bonni, Little Missy, LuLu...thanks for welcoming me back to my Family here at SR. Sure have missed everyone. Sure have been doing some pretty heavy duty drinking. Sure have realized it is time to get back to the program. Sure am glad I'm back! "Sure" seems to be my word today!

Happy to be sober today. Trust me, it does NOT get better if you go back to drinking/using. The ride gets wilder and more frightening. Don't know how many of those "rides" I have left in me...don't want to find out. Had some of the wierdest things happen to me in the last few months...some humerous, some not so humerous.

No Quitting Today. Back on the bus.

Love,
Laci

I'm "sure" glad to be back muse & Vic Missed all of you so much. I feel comfort being here today and knowing that it is okay to come back to my SR family and not have to put my head between my tail and sulk in shame and guilt.

SURE feels great. I have lived in such a "zombie" state the last few weeks, losing touch with myself and those around me. I sure felt the effects of this disease on this last ride and scared the hell out of me. Began to suffer some real physical effects this time along with the mental and emotional effects. Now that for "sure" scared me!

So I bring my bloated, sick, nervous and anxiety filled self back "home" to the only people that understand me.

Today I am part of the solution and not part of the problem. I've had enuf! I surrender.

Love,
Laci

It takes what it takes Laci. My last drinking binge scared the h*ll out of me too. I finally got to see how powerful the disease actually is. I'm no match for it so why bother. I will surely lose. I don't ever have to go through that again. I plan to make my last binge, my last binge. Anything else is plain insanity.

Amen to that muse. This is a powerful disease and I'm no match for it either. It is easier to be sober rather than fight to stay drunk....and what am I fighting the disease for? So I can die? And what a horrible death that would be. Yup...we will only lose. Your words are the truth. What really scared the h*ll out of me this time was I could not determine what was a dream and what was reality. Everything kind of was stirred up in a big mess if you know what I mean. Losing touch with reality really frightened me. I would make plans or committments and then the next day I was not sure if I dreamed these things up or if I had in fact made plans. My family and friends were a bit offset by this lack of reality and not sure what to expect. Seems like everything was unreal.

So it will take some time for my mind/soul/spirit/phyisical to settle down but I have plenty of time now to let that happen. I have attended meetings off and on the last three months and my group never has given up on me either. They saw my struggle and felt my pain but always remained honest and candid with me and for that I am thankful.

So here I sit this nice hot Sunday morning eating a grapefruit and sipping tea. My husband has been very supportive and all he wants is for me to be sober and happy. Me to! I am taking the advice of One Day At A Time and hitting 90 meetings in 90 days. I have been able to make my husband understand somewhat that meetings are not "sporadic" or just for the weekends but that I need to go each day. One hour a day out of 24 hours is a very small price to stay sober.

It does take what it takes muse....thank you for reminding me of that. My last binge is going to be my last binge also. The booze is just not worth the price of my life or the lives of the people that love me.

Off to a meeting. Will check in when I arrive home. Thanks again to all of you for welcoming me back and for continuing to love me through all the bad (and good!) times.

Love,
Laci
