New series of Kevin. Done. Off to bed after I finish my camomile...

I have an idea to rip out the termite infested sleepers and construct retaining walls and vege beds from tyres....from a Kevin repeat a little bit ago...pros and cons please??

Dreaming of chooks, eggs and tyres...much better than skogging on scotch....what was I thinking - never was poison of choice...

Nighters Undies, will check in late morning tomorrow, off to early yoga then straight to meeting, memo to me - must pack deodorant...

Bridge will probably be too xorsted to post for a bit, sometimes when you read for too long you get cramp....unless you change position...a lot...

Morning all undergarments!

Wouldn't you know it ....... bloody gale force winds all weekend, then just when it is time to start the work week again, the weather goes all perfect on us!!!

Rags - I did indeed note the flags on the deck :H:H

This song is for Bridge .... tried to find a you-tube clip of it, but couldn't find a good 'un. The Stillgoe and Skellern version is hilarious if anyone ever gets a chance to listen!!

Joyce The Librarian

Joyce the librarian
Strict vegetarian
Forty and living with mum.
Wears sandals and glasses
Attends evening classes
And wonders if romance will come.
Though she'd never been kissed
It's not something she'd missed
Until some weeks before;
When George, a rotarian,
Handsome lotharian,
Walked through the library door.

George was unmarried
And the torch that Joyce carried
Was burning a hole in her heart
She wanted to show him
But didn't yet know him
She didn't know where to start
So with growing abhorrance
She read D.H. Lawrence
To glean a few ideas . . .
Which she turned down flat
She couldn't do that
Not in a million years!!

Joyce the librarian
Strict vegetarian
Was burning with animal lust
Alarming sensations
Strange palpatations
A mix of delight and disgust
So she busied herself
Rearranging the shelf
To try to control her dreams.
Joyce the librarian
The disciplinarian
Was falling apart at the seams.

The very next day
She kept out of the way
When George returned his books
But with growing conviction
She wandered through "Fiction"
And threw him some longing looks.
And when George joined the queue
She knew just what to do,
She smiled and removed her specs . .
Then looked in horror
'Cause he'd come to borrow "
The Further Joy of Sex".

Perhaps because latterly
She'd read "Lady Chatterley"
Something just snapped in her head;
She gave herself gladly,
Wildly, madly,
To George that night in his bed.
But then just as she'd feared
George disappeared
Some other librarian to woo.
Now there's a sob in her voice
As both book and Joyce
Are a fortnight over due.

Morning all

Life has dealt us another blow, an really expensive one this time. So I have been drinking and I reckon this is the most I have drank in years. Feel stuck in a bad place now........and I know I will have to crawl back out of it one day at a time. I knew this year was going to be tough and it is only a few weeks in so I really need to pull myself together.

Sorry I haven't read back so I don't know what is happening in everyone's life. Hope everyone is keeping well.

Ella :l

I caught myself doing some magical thinking early on in the holidays .... something along the lines of "yay, holidays are here, the weather is going to be beautiful, all the shitty things in my life will disappear on the stroke on mid-night on 31 December, the people who cause me grief will have an epiphany over the holidays and turn into much nicer people who see the error of their ways, and my bank account will grow bigger without me even trying."

Well, none of those things happened, and I drank in my disappointment that my magical thinking had not managed to defy the laws of everyday existence.

I'm so sorry that the start of the year has been so hard for you, and I know how hard it can be to feel motivated when I feel like I'm stuck down a hole and finding it hard to get out. Come here when you need to and feel free to climb on our backs to get out of your hole. Drinking is going to make things worse rather than better - the stuff you are dealing with wont go away while you are drinking, it will just make you feel like you can ignore it for a bit.

TAke care Ella.

G'day Ella,

It is tough being in that bad place. I have had to pull myself out of a very real potential nosedive only a few days ago. For me, like you, i knew i didn't want to be there, but i kept tempting fate after a few days AF with a 'ahh, fuck it' kind of thinking which would take me back to the gates of hell. Why? I was overwhelmed. Overwhelmed with what i percieved as problem after problem, and if i percieve a situation to be a problem, then it will be for me. If i percieve a situation to be a pain in the arse, BUT, i am feeling balanced and healthy, i can deal with it fairly easily. With booze in my system, i am a shell of the man i was. I am anxious, negative, depressed, gloomy, and would much rather turn my back and run away from situations i need to deal with. Now, on day 5 AF, i am returning to my positive self and outlook. The worry, anxiety and negativity fog is lifting, and i am getting stronger, and truer. I am not giving you advice or telling you what to do. Just my experiences.

But i had to somehow arrive at the place in my being, where i changed my thinking. I'm not sure how i did that, but for me, i surrounded myself with positive vibes wherever and however i could. Support from some folk here, books, exercise, positive friends, people, movies, websites.....anything. Arrive at that positive place in your head, your thinking Ella, sooner rather than later. Pull yourself out of the nosedive and the madness. You have it within you somewhere, and we all have to find it and hang onto it. Start fighting. FIGHT, and take back your precious life now.

Keep posting and let us know how you are going. We will support you as best we can.

Fight for your life.

Ella Bella, what Missy and Mr G said..:l...here if you need to talk, here if you're just listening in..

Thanks for the replies. I am down because I am waiting for the drink to leave my system. In a few days I should be back to myself. No drink in the house now.

We were supposed to be going to Europe to see all the families and a little holiday in France. On Saturday our neighbour notified us of a problem in our retaining wall. It will cost around $20k to fix and I am not sure our insurance will cover it. So no holiday now but I still have to go see my father with the kids but it halves the cost of the trip without my husband and the trip to visit the in-laws.

My father starts his treatment today for his cancer and my son is still attending the hospital for his finger. And I don't think I have properly dealth with his accident and the trauma of it all. He however is doing fine.

And my throat problem has flared back up. So anyway, off to the hospital we go with the toddler.
