    One Step at a Time - June 2012

    I like to go one step at a time too!
    I am stepping my way to an awesome life that leaves those horrible days of fog, flashbacks of black outs, hatin myself, and not getting a chance to breathe and be myself.

    The past couple of days I have been reminded of my normal. Back from the days before I was a heavy drinker. I feel that peace now and I hope it stays forever.
    Day 1 again 11/5/19
    Goal 1: 7 days :heartbeat:
    Goal 2: 14 days :happy2:
    Goal 3: 21 days :happy2:
    11/27/19: messed up but back on track
    12/14/19: bad doozy but back on track

    One day at a time.

        One Step at a Time - June 2012

        In from work - I went swimming on Sunday with my daughter and as most of you know, I had BC - well, my swimsuit has two little inserts that fit in it and I could NOT find one of them - eventually found it - IN THE DOGS BED !!! The new puppy had found it - the ones that go in the swimsuit are just smooshy ones so she just had sort of gummed it - no tears in it - little monkey!! I am going to have to be very careful with my good ones.... I do tend to leave them around - LOL. Then could only find one flip flop - yes, she had had that too - a little chewed but wearable...... my daughter had cracked up when I called her to tell her why I was running late "couldn't find my boob"....... :H:H:H

        Why are you suddenly craving sugar jan? Try upping your protein - it really does help..... too much sugar puts me to sleep and I wake up with a hangover....

        Oh - Hubs picked a radish today - couldn't believe the size of it - they are supposed to be longer than normal - but this is huge - have taken a pic for you all ....



        Quite amazing !!

        We had over an inch of rain today so I plan on gardening tomorrow on my day off - well, weeding actually.... LOL and the weeds should just slide out!

        RC - I won't be on your thread tomorrow I am afraid - just popped open a Guinness but just plan on having the one or maybe two then going to bed...

        love and hugs to all,

        How simple it is to see that we can only be happy now and there will never be a time when it is not now....

          Mama I just had to post before I went to bed.

          When my best friend got sober 2 years ago she carried peanut m&ms everywhere with her. It became a staple and we would become quite excited when we found them on sale at the local Target - a huge bag for $2.33 !! My God we bought about 5 bags because of course even though I was still imbibing , I felt it necessary to support her. :H I can't tell how the little orbs almost ruled her life for awhile After Christmas sales were a jackpot. I don't think I will EVER look at peanut m&ms the same again.

          I Think I still have bags floating around the hours somewhere. I am more than happy not send them your way.

                Thought I'd drop in and say I am just loving this thread and of course I couldn't pop in without bringing a gift. Free M&Ms.


                It could be worse, I could be filing.

                      Mornin..nice to see ya JC first thing I thought when I saw the picture was arts and crafts I could get into sweets but that's an area where I'm usually quite controlled BUT I can open a large 70% choc bar and mung the whole thing in a day. I try to eat a bit but it beckons...
                      Sunshine glad your boob was not harmed:H Think I've told this story but for your amusement will share again. At a ladies retreat(church group)years ago, we were having a room wars in the dorm one evening. Water guns, silly string chasing each other back and forth. One of the gals had some of them "funny" boobs. Our team was back in our room teeheeing our victory after a toilet paper attack on another when the door flew open and this "orb" came flying through the air. It hit me...freaked me out a bit and then we realized it was her boob! Roared with laughter we all did. I loved her spirit (RIP) and I love yours Miss Sunshine!:l
                      Rained all night and still at it .. was really hoping to burn more today. Oh well lots to still sort indoors...so hard going through the kids stuff.:upset:
                      Pressing on in this moment is the only was to get through though. :h

                        One Step at a Time - June 2012

                        Good Morning everyone!

                        Oh JC - those M & M's look lovely - mix them with peanut butter M & M's and with a few Peanut M& M's mixed in too - YUM ! Kradle - I used to eat the aforementioned mix all the time! Molly - they do toffee crisp bits now? Oh YUM ! I used to love Toffee crisp.....

                        Oh Jan - sugar is the other side of the same coin as AL. for me.... too much of it and I crash - and feel like heck when I wake up..... dry mouth, thick head, etc......it just doesn't take as long to get over.

                        Molly - I am sure you will let us know when that baby arrives - they do like to take their time don't they - the poor mum is what I am thinking......

                        Firefox - good for you not caving at the funeral yesterday..... and yes, I suppose salads are better than sweets. I prefer veggies to salads though...

                        RC - you had told me that story but I had forgotten it - thanks for the laugh! Our rain just lasted a few hours - but the ground did get a good soaking thank goodness. At least I won't have to water for a few days. Good luck with the clearing out - our children took everything with them finally so we have nothing left here now of theirs!! Any junk is all our own - LOL

                        After getting up at 5.00 and letting the dogs out and feeding them (they are so used to my routine), I went back to bed and slept in...... feel as if half my day is gone already! Off to get my list ready and sort what I need to do.

                        Have a great day everyone, Love and hugs,

                          Morning/Evening everyone,

                          Another one of my chauffer days. Get to work at 6:30. Leave at 8:45. Pick up hubby. Drop him off at dentist. Go back to work. Go back to pick up hubby. Drop him at home. Go back to work. At least this should be the last of the dental trips for awhile.

                          JC - thanks for the M&M's. YUMMY!!!!!

                          Sun - I laughed & laughed about your boob. When I first started reading & I looked at the picture, I just couldn't figure it out. :H:H Finally realized it was a radish. LMAO

                          Mama - hope your computer is fixed today.

                          Hello to everyone. Hope you all have a wonderful day or evening whereever you may be.
