Good morning all.
Looks like I might be the eary bird around here.
I am trying that 8 hours sleep a day thing that you hear so much about so I am going to try to go to bed and get up at the same time everyday and see if a regular sleep pattern improves my health. So far (second day) I am still constantly tired but I am hoping this is one of the things that will change.
I am on my 4'th cup of coffee (with splenda:no sugar) so that is the next thing on my list. If it isn't one thing it is another. I seem to be always adding a lifestyle challenge lately.
Maybe next I will try to be a nicer person but don't hold your breath.

How can we break it to Fubar that he is becoming nicer and nicer.. It might be a hard message to deliver.. Still funny but actually quite a nice guy these days... OOPS..

Hey Everyone,

Nothing terribly exciting going on... The snow is melting so maybe I can get my car out and do something relatively constructive.

Not dead yet. And despite life's best attempt at getting me to drink, I avoided it last night. My BF's ex went crazy (or... well I think she's been crazy for a while. But that's probably another forum entirely). She hacked into his online account for his cell phone and sent me a bunch of text messages of the "I don't love you, I'm getting back together with my ex" variety. So I thought it was him. Wowsers. Such drama!! But I didn't drink, and I didn't do drugs. If I can handle that... really, what can't I handle?

So yay for me! Clean and sober for 5 days now (oh that hurts. Going from 8 weeks to 5 days).

I'm supposed to be at work. Was supposed to be there at 8:00. But... here it is, 10:00 and I'm still in my pajamas. Guess I'd better get with it. *Yawn*

Hellllooooooooo.

I'm back in CT, family was on fairly good behavior and I had fun visiting with them. It turns out they're actually easier to handle when I'm not jonesing to be left alone so I can drink.

Back to reality, worky-worky tonight. I hope everyone is still fanTABulous!

Off to my Du x Dia PTSD group this morning. All is well with me so far this morning. Even had a very good experience at my DRA meeting last night. Its comforting to share about my non-supernatural views of recovery and still be within my rights to do so as a DRA member. I would have never thought that mental illness would be a advantage to my recovery...LOL...and love that DRA.

We love you here. :ghug It is actually impossible to start your day over unless you teleport to a different time zone since the day is a function of time. Yes I know I am a smarty pants.

I am going to bed with the Australians!! I just looked it up WorldTimeZone.com - Current time around the World . I am on their time. It feels better to know that somewhere in the world it's nighttime, as I shut the blinds on the whussy New England sun.

*hugs* Sorry you're having a rough morning, Nans. Huh that's weird, my downstairs neighbor is blasting a recording of the Brandenburg Concerto. I played it in high school orchestra as a second violinist. I feel it sinking into my brain... My stupid brain is humming along... it's gonna get stuck in there.... GET IT OUT GET IT OUT!!

Uh yeah, time to sign off the internet. (And this is me sober! eesh) Gnight folks.

Well crap. Seems like a cheery bunch on here. I have the urge to go get hammered tonight. Hopefully it'll pass before I leave work.
