And, yes, 1.75 is huge. lol I'd be in hospital if I tried that now!

I'd been wondering about that. Are you saying that when a person reduces their intake their tolerance of AL drops as time passes?

Hiya Zennie :l

Did you remember to tell Reccie that an unfortunate by-product of getting sober was that you developed an addiction to FV?

Thought you'd be pleased Jackie! Posted about it earlier. Were you at St James Park?

Dawg not at St James at all. I'd have to sell a kidney to get a ticket these days.

They came from 4 nil down to draw 4s apiece. Apparently the 1st half the Arsenal were all over us like a rash and by the noises Mr JC were making in the 2nd half it sounded better than ermmmm, ermmm.....................my chocolate cake.

[ QUOTE=startingover;1054438 ] at the beginning of the second and third parts and this...[ /QUOTE ]at the end of each part so that you divided one quote into three parts.... Huh, huh? How'd ya do it?

Now I will finish in July of this year and I am beginning to think of what to do next....Good for you. I can't believe you manage to do as much as you do. And huge congrats on passing those assignments. We all knew that you'd do it tho'!!!

The most pleasure I get is from dealing with people just like you and me but have hit a rough spot rather than people with learning disabilities....I find that less rewarding and more frustrating somehow.Yes, that's what you should do. You'd be fantastic. I think it is very important that the people trying to help addicts have first-hand knowledge about what the addict is or has gone through either by their own personal experience as an addict (recovering) or as a family member or close friend of someone who has suffered addiction. The former is best, IMO. I mean, if you haven't battled addiction, then you really can't know what the addict is feeling and facing. Again, I think you'd be brilliant.

Sorry to put a damper on things, but beware of liquid flea and tick preventions. They can cause liver damage to the animals. I had heard that and asked my vet and she admitted that she had heard of such complications. Freddo only wears the collar and we have had absolutely no problem. Must be replaced every 3 to 4 months but is better than liver problems.

Do you reckon a box of tissues each will be enough?

Setting yourself up for an evening of sobbing? Two boxes each. Glad young Miss JC will be spending the evening. Hugs from me....:happyheart:

So got dressed. My daughter has stripped and made the bed up with fresh clean sheets (She only called in for a cuppa)

Taken my painkillers and anti-imflamms and got a good book to read. Sitting upright with loads of cushions and feel much better now.
:thanks: for kind thoughts and words

Good for you - that's the spirit. Glad your feeling more comfortable...

It made me bawl my bloody eyes out that film. Won't be watching it again any time soon. Mostly because they're so young and fit and lovely... hahahaAnd you're not lovely. Don't forget, we've seen piccies of you. Tall, slim, dark hair and blue eyes to kill for. Young has nothing over you, gorgeous lady and you look quite fit to me. At least much more fit than I am...

Lovely posts Stirly and so clever with the quotes.

Hello Jackie dear.

I've just changed my avatar for the time being and think I'm going to change my signature as well. Just can't decide which picture I want.

Just got back from the supermarket a while ago and have a fridge stocked with incredible yummy food for tomorrow at Stirly's Diner. Fresh fish and salads will start the menu and huge choccie chip cookies and choccie-orange pudding for dessert...

Hope you have a lovely evening with your daughter.

Anon - if you want some on-line games to play - "the Scruffs" is very entertaining as is "Wooden Paths" where you have to move things to get from one place to another. I get stuck on both of them.

Zennie - have a good rest. See you tomorrow.
