Missy :Val004:

Like life is one big joke on me. Like the Big Guy looks down and says, "HAHAHAHAHAHA, let's see how she handles this one!!!!!"
Oh I hear you on that one :c043: I've always felt the same way, LOL.

One of my favorite songs too Missy, I often have the song running in my head too.....was made a year before I was...lol....and guess what I found part of the song, everyone can listen to it. Ohhhhh I love Doris Day, her movies.

scroll down to music clips

http://www.reelclassics.com/Actresses/Day/day.htm

from THE MAN WHO KNEW TOO MUCH (1956)

Que Sera, Sera

When I was just a little girl
I asked my mother
What will I be?
Will I be pretty?
Will I be rich?
Here's what she said to me:

Que sera, sera.
Whatever will be, will be.
The future's not ours to see.
Que sera, sera.
What will be, will be.

When I grew up and fell in love
I asked my sweetheart
What lies ahead?
Will we have rainbows
Day after day?
Here's what my sweetheart said:

Que sera, sera.
Whatever will be, will be.
The future's not ours to see.
Que sera, sera.
What will be, will be.

Now I have children of my own.
They ask their mother,
What will I be?
Will I be handsome?
Will I be rich?
I tell them tenderly:

Que sera, sera.
Whatever will be, will be.
The future's not ours to see.
Que sera, sera.
What will be, will be.
Que sera, sera.

Seven, eight....cha cha cha :dancer5:

Nope not quitting.

No need to feel stupid or beat yourself up Arura. Most of us learn the hard way. Consider it a lesson learned. Let's just say you were studying last night, right? Do whatever it takes to not pick up that first drink.

lulu70 07-29-2006 04:35 PM

Okay--I'm not sure why this is bothering me so much, but there is a BIG pool party going on right outside my apartment and I am about to cry. They have a keg and are playing frisbee and hanging out and having a loud, fun time.

Never mind.....I know why this is bothering me. I am wallowing in self pity. I am lonely and I am a little bit jealous. I know I could go out there and join them, but I would feel pretty uncomfortable and I don't really want to be out there in the heat with a bunch of drunk people anyway.

Sorry to vent. I just had to get that out. Now I feel better.

((((Arura)))) You will be okay. I'm certainly not disappointed in you. I'm just here, sending positive energy your way and having faith that you will make it through this. Hang in there.

ASH 07-29-2006 04:54 PM

Not Quitting Today

(((Laura))) Thanks for the "...I really dont want to be out
there in the heat with a bunch of drunk people..."
Drinking in the sun/heat used to make me sick before
I even had time to get the hangover, uggggg :a136:
The cool mall for an ice cream, yea, now thats a good diversion

Arura Great to see you today

Denise :danse1b: chachacha

Leanne best for me to keep my studying days,
or I should say my HEAVY research days behind me,
I must already have my PHD

Vic Right on, grateful for the hard days, reminder of what not to do :hitwithro

Missy May I learn to face my problems with Humility Dignity and Grace

(((DQs))) The futures not ours to see, but no quitting today

Don't let it get to you hon. They need someone sober to rescue the drunk who falls into the pool. You know how it goes...

((Arura)) Glad you are back at it!! Recovery is a journey, not a destination!!

((Laura)) I'm glad that doesn't happen in our neighborhood. I think I'd have a hard time with it also. But we have to remember, our sobriety is worth so much more!! I'd probably be knocking people into the pool!! LOL

Have a great 24 ((All))

Nope Not Quitting
 
You got it LeAnne, most of us do learn the hard way, lordy. How's your back, and yes the older we get yowza.

Arura....I'm soooooo happy you got back up fast, atta girl.

Ash how's your back? Any :HulaDancebeen happening? If so woohoo shake it girl shake it...cha cha cha.

Paperdolls hope you're feeling better today, not so sad.

Laura big hugs girl. We both know you weren't missing a thing, it would be MORE fun if the keg hadn't of been there. My neighbours are always having parties, I've sat outside along thinking I'm missing something too, then as the night goes on, they get louder, the music gets louder, which means drunker and crazier, this goes on till sometimes 5am, lovely, when some have to get up to go to work. The next morning you look over and see the mess from what they thought was a good time, all so sick, nope not missing a thing. I hope you soon find something that will make you happy, it's to bad we all didn't live close to one another....wouldn't that be great.

Missy that's right...sobriety is priceless. A reminder (stay away from pool when Missy is around, I can't swim) hehe.

Vic thanks so much for keeping things in order here, I'd have everything so messed up, lol.

Jana, Janet, Bonni, Laci, Kath.....woohooo thinking about you girls, hope everything is ok.

You're doing a great job here Vic....another thing to work on eh, not letting things bother us so much, after all we are human, not PERFECT.....imagine how boring we'd be if we were perfect. :C023:

Ok DQer's, badly in need of some prayers..a friend of mine has lung cancer, she's a good person, so full of life, a bubbly spirited woman, you'd all love her. She had surgery early this morning, they think they got all the cancer, she has to go back for more tomorrow.

My smoking brothers and sisters....please fight harder on stopping, toss the nic sticks, I know how hard it is to do, I quit years ago, so I understand.... but the fate with it well......
