        Yep - it's orange this month. Still 'TTDP' or in my own words 'TTFP'. Think it's something around 17 days. Lots of stickers. In looking back over the last several months since I've been doing this, it is really nice to see how many AF days I have had. Not perfect by any means but a HUGE difference than 2 years ago.

        Alco - I answer myself too. What time is court?

          Nora:
          I just called the attorney to make sure i still have to go and she says she won't need me after all!!!! All that preparation for nothing! I hate attorneys! My husband is one and my dad is one. But they make a lot of people nervous! Thanks for asking, Nora!
          Now what's the sticker about? I haven't figured it out...

              Yahoo that you don't have to go to court!! (TTDP means take the damn pill ..... my antabuse) and you can figure out what TTFP means. :H

                  Nora: such love you show your pills through graphic words. Lol. Love the sticker idea., was doing the drink tracker but they make you log in every time!!! I got lazy because most days were 0s so I didn't see the point. I'm a lazy person so when I complain about my husband, I'm a kettle...,.

                  Yup. They cancelled all my appointments today imagining I had to go to court. Now I just sit around get paid for doing nothing. Pretty cool.

                  Where is k9???? Wonder how baptism went.

                      Unless K9 got whisked away by her young man, she took a long weekend.

                      Mama - let us know how Clay's court goes.

                      Alco - It's nice to look and see all the stickers on my calendar. K9 got me started on that. I am using orange happy face stickers right now. I was at Dollar Tree yesterday checking out the stickers. :H

                      PS - I want to get paid for doing nothing. :H

                        Juja - did you get a Dr appointment???

                        Nurdl & Juja - did you guys shower yet?

                        I like the big bed idea but only if you two take showers first. ROTFL :H

                          home and tucked in. Ate, did dishes and took pain pill. My back is very tender, but much better.
                          Hope everyone is well
                          and yes.....PLEASE TAKE SHOWERS!

                            Nora : I like the happy face sticker idea ! Do you treat yourself to something nice after getting, like 20 happy faces? I like that. We need to reward our hard work at being AF.

                            Mama: is clay your son? How did he like teen court?

                            Juja: did you get a good dose of antibiotics from your doctor yet? I hope you did and I hope you feel better soon!

                              Multiquote didn't work, so here goes it......

                              I didn't know what TTDP was either! So happy to be educated.

                              Yes, I took a shower--felt great. And of course we'd take showers before we got all comfy! Besides, I never, ever get into a clean bed without showering, even if I already took one in the morning. OCD, anyone? Nurdl, how're you holding up without one?

                              Oh, and no Fifty Shades of Grey, either. How about Heidi or Little House on the Prairie?

                              I did got a dr's appt at 1:00. Started a Z-pack, and have Tussionex cough mixture @ $59.95! The pharmacist asked if I still wanted it since it was that costly. I said yes, that I had given up on having extra money. I have so many medical bills coming in that what's one more expense?:upset:

                              I love my doctor. He walked in the examining room and said, "Nice outfit." I had on baggy sweatpants and an ill-fitting top, and a sports bra, which I should never wear in public (38 longs, Mama). He never sees me like that. I told him to shut up, at least I was clean. We had a good laugh.

                              I love the work f***,too. That's how I privately express anger and frustration.

                              Alco>So glad you didn't have to go to court. What a relief.

                              Where is that K9 kid? I'm getting a little worried...

                              Zen>You can redecorate my bedroom as long as it doesn't end up looking like a high-end Manhattan apt. Detest that streamlined, industrial look. Sorry, no cash for flight to VA, either. :H

                              I think I talk too much. Funny, since I've lost my voice....

                                First thing!! NOBODY talks to much here. So, Juja keep it coming.

                                Funny about the TTDP thing. One day when I was having a really rough day and really NOT wanting to take the antabuse, I asked K9 what her mantra was......take the fucking pill?? Well - she told me later that she actually uses take the damn pill, but whatever works for me. :H

                                Juja - seriously though. I am so glad that you got into the Doctor. Hope those antibiotics kick in soon. Oh - and I agree.....no 50 Shades of Grey. We're trying to relax not get all worked up. :H

                                Nurdl - how you doing? Things any better there? I guess it's going to take quite a while to get back to normal. :l

                                Mama - I hope that you feel better. You poor thing, you just have not been doing well lately. Give yourself a great big hug from me to you. :l

                                Alco - You should try the sticker idea. It does give you motivation. I have the calendar hanging on my bedroom door so it's private. If the kids ask me when they are over visiting, I'll just say that those are my healthy days (eat right/exercise/drink water). I used to buy myself something but I haven't done that in a while. That was good motivation too.

                                Well - get my cpap machine today. I look like an astronaut. This will be interesting. It will take awhile to get used to but hopefully, it will help. I thought about posting a picture because I look so funny.

                                Dinner time - I'll be back. Hi Dottie, Paula, Zen, Sun and everyone who drops in.
