    One Step at a Time - February 2013

    Hiya Zen!! How are things? You getting back into the groove. I saw a post you made regarding the counselors views on MWO. Most of my therapists/doctors don't understand what we have here. They push the AA or an actual meeting. I finally reached a point where I told them that I had tried AA.....I'm not ruling it out for the future but that for right now, this group is giving me great support. I have friends that I can call for support. I can come on here at any time of the dayor night and say I need help and there will be someone here to help me. Anyway, I think I have finally made my point.

      LOL! Yeah... it is hard to get them to understand the level of support on here. I found the magic words were "phone conversation". If you speak on the phone instead of typing it's more "real" according to them... ) (The rehab therapist got it... but I'm having a tough time explaining MWO to the IOP therapists. I may have to admit defeat!) You're right though... they push the face-to-face AA meets...

      I'll do a couple of AA meets but I'm not going to do 90 in 90...

      How's things with you hon?

        Mama...the mental image of you hanging upside down with the girls knocking you in the face gave me a good laugh this morning :H I tried one of those things at a yard sale...lets just say a little crowd gathered to mock me. LOL I did NOT buy the darn thing.

        Does anybody watch The Big Bang Theory? My daughter and I had tears running down our faces from laughing so hard last night. If you're ever feeling down...that show will cheer you right up! Tonight I am renting a movie (it's been months), anyone seen "Flight" with Denzel Washington? I guess he's an alcoholic pilot...looks pretty good.

        Ok...my boss should be stomping around the corner any second now...I don't know WHY she annoys me so much, she just does!

        Be back later.

        Love ya'll!!! :h:h
        :heart:I love my daughter more than alcohol:heart:

        Believe in yourself. You are stronger than you think.

          "Flight" was awesome....talk about addiction.....at it's worst
          I hear Big bang Theory is hysterical
          hiya Zenners....you have been on my mind...your rehab experience sounds unsettling, to say the least...

            I can't wait to see Denzel tonight...I saw him in Las Vegas years ago with a "lady" (ahem) that wasn't his wife....she was sitting on his lap...interesting. LOL

            Big Bang is the funniest dang show I think I've ever seen. I saw a license plate yesterday that said "BAZINGA"...if you watch the show, you'll get it. LOL

            Hi Zenny! Glad you're back :h

            Hey Nora...how's your calendar looking so far this month...full of stickers? Still TTDP? I take it every other day...I have to put a little tiny "dot" on the days to TTDP other wise I will forget. My memory is going downhill. Last Friday I got all the way home and realized I forgot to pick up Sierra. I've gone to the wrong house before, but never completely forgot. That was a new LOW.

            Hi Fly, Nurdl, Sun and everyone else!

              Big Bang is funny as all get out Niner!!! Haven't seen "Flight"... will check Netflix...

              Mama... it was a bit unnerving but it got me on the right path so I'm just saying "all's well that ends well" now. I won't sign up for it again though... it's a very good incentive to make it work... LMAO!

                  Hi friends,
                  Just checking in. Off to chorus rehearsal tonight. Zen, interesting to hear that rehab people don't value online encounters. Since I suppose there is no means of collecting success/failure data here, they conclude that it deserves no credit. All I know is that this resource has been priceless for me.
                  My life is better without alcohol, since 9/1/12. My sobriety tool is the list at permalink 236 on the toolbox thread under monthly abstinance.

                    Mama the thought of the six bras made me giggle but I share your pain! I don't think my boobs would recognise my face if they ever got that near it again. They spend far more time trying to hang around with my belly button these days.

                    I love Big Bang too, although the episodes we see here are probably a fair way behind yours.

                    Nora have you done your yoga or is it not tomorrow there yet?

                    I didn't come this far to only come this far.

                      Glass - 3 more hours until yoga time. I'm a little nervous. :H Goodness knows my body doesn't stretch like it used to. Hopefully, I'll be a limber person after all of this.

                      K9 - I'm still racking up my stickers. I'm using orange hearts this month.

                      Ok - back to work......................

                            Nora - if you see this before you go, remember to wear an extra bra so you don't get black eyes during the downward dog. :H

                              I was laughing when I saw your messages. I really enjoyed myself. This is the 3rd week so we've missed quite a bit. So, we are staying after on Thursday and she'll go over things with us. It's going to take me a long time to get it all. Certainly not flexible enough to do a lot of the moves. But, I'll keep trying.Have to work on the breathing. She was saying that is key and I was having a hard time keeping my breathing right. Anyway, I'm really glad that I'm doing this.

                                Yeah Nora! Glad to hear that you enjoyed yourself. I did my yoga last night too, at home.

                                Quick check in as I'm off to work. Hello to you all and have a wonderful day!
