One Step at a Time - July 2012

Good morning everyone, hope your ok Nora. I am about an hours drive away from olympics, no chance of going to London, the roads are horrific. Good to watch on tv though, the opening ceremony was amazing. I went out for dinner last night with friends, loads of wine on the table, but didn't even think about drinking, even though someone poured me a glass, I just said I'm drinking juice as it is so warm here at the moment. I intend having a sober weekend. Hope every one else does.

Morning paula - how lovely that your weather has turned warm and stopped raining !! I worked last night so couldn't watch the opening but had an e-mail when I got home from a friend saying she had got it on a DVD for me - how sweet was that! I can only DVR and not actually record to a DVD anymore!

Good for you with your sober weekend - you must be so proud of yourself !!

off to work......

Love, sun X

Norah, just read some old posts, so sorry your having a rough time, hoping that things improve for you. Grieving is terrible I know, but things do gradually improve, although we never get over the loss of our loved ones. Time does help.

Hi everyone,
Paula, it must be exciting having the olympics so close, but I hate crowds. You can think of all of us watching the same TV screen.

Nora, things will improve soon.

SunniD, have a good day at work!

Dest, sounds like you are getting some AF time in, Yay!

Mama, thanks for all.

I've been running around a lot this week, but less going on today. We are receiving some well-needed rain. Went on a boat ride with some high school classmates yesterday. I'm with you Paula: there was an open bar, but I didn't want anything other than my water.

Tears are very therapeutic Mama, having a good cry really does make you feel better, so does laughing. Hope you feel better soon. Just watched one of your swimmers get a gold, there that should cheer you up.

Oh Mama - so sorry that you're having a depression day. :l:l Hope you start feeling better.

Paula - are you having a lot of good coverage of the Olympics? We are only getting it on one channel here and they pick & choose what they want to show. Frustrating.

Got some great veggies & fruit at the Farmer's Market. Going to have string beans & red potatoes for dinner. Yummy.

Hope your feeling better today Mama. We have 24 hour olympic cover on the BBC, Nora, nice to have the other channels for a break. I had my grandchildren to sleep over this weekend. No thoughts of alcohol recently which is good. Going away for a few days next weekend, going to scatter my sisters ashes in the sea, then I will feel she is finally at peace.
