    So true Satz, at the start i wasnt out to prove much other than not drinking for awhile, now its an everyday occurrence. I just went for a walk at 8pm and i thought to myself as i was walking that a year ago i would of been drinking, instead i now have a life i love with the people that mean the most to me in the world.

    Wont be much work happening on Monday Mr G.

      Supposed to be up and running, but forecast for lots of rain and took that excuse!! Run was to start at 9am, and no rain so now I am a loser:eek-new:
      I would love to hear some music too G if you would share!
      Lots to do today - not sure why I am still in bed! Got that darn turkey to deal with, and s whole list of other things! That's maybe why I didn't get up!!
      Have a great day all! Will aim to run this afternoon in a break from the rain - let's see if I do it now :happy2:

        Haha SL. Don't be letting a little rain scare you off! Rug up with a waterproof/windproof jacket and hood or cap and go for it. You'll be the only crazy f'ker out there. It's so peaceful and no-ones gawking at ya. Hope you had a great thanksgiving. Will send you and Pav a link to some music. Thanks for asking.

        Day something or other here on a sunny sunday morning at the beach pad. Morevellous weather as they say in South Africa. Just chillin. Written a few tunes the last couple of days that might go ok when i finish them.

        Have a bewdy out there and take it easy. Self care, self love, and more self care, K? K.

          Need to buy a hooded jacket - on the wish list!
          Thanksgiving was good - now dealing with the aftermath - all the leftovers!
          Thanks for the music - I am liking what I am hearing...

              G, I have to tell you that I am a tad jealous. It is -7C today here and we are happy because it is not to cold!
              Actually, I am looking at the Rocky Mountains from my office and they are majestic. We are lucky to be sober and be able to be grateful for our lives eh?

              Have a pearler out there? Never heard that one!

              See ya later!

                Sounds like you're having an absolute pearler of a day there Narilly with that view. The Rocky's must be amazing. -7? Balmy!

                Yep, we are lucky to be sober. It really is something special isn't it? And we are making it happen for ourselves. Make no mistake. Our decision to take back our precious lives has reverberations and a ripple effect throughout our homes, our relationships, and the Galaxy's near and not so far.

                  I'm here! And yes, please clue us in on what a "pearler" is? Just when I was getting used to your other sayings too. LOL :love:
                  :heart:I love my daughter more than alcohol:heart:

                    About time young lady!

                    A pearler = a ripper, a rip snorter, a bewdy! In short, a pealer of a day is kinda like a day with pearls all over it.

                    Don't be a stranger Niner. But i am glad you are still around my friend. :hug:

                      It's 12.20 a.m. thursday as i write. I'm feeling very good, and just reflecting in the quiet of a midweek night how damn great it is to be sober. Now that i've racked up over 4 months AF it's becoming a lifestyle, with less chance of turning back. Life has it's rough spots, but all in all, i'm a happy fella. I really see that the best is yet to come. Rightio, Off to bed. G'night.

                      Take it easy out there.

                        Day 128 but who's counting. The feeling's goood at the beach pad.

                          Good reading G - keep on going, it just gets better - it does not cure all evils for sure, but dealing with the downs af is so much better that dealing with them in the haze of drinking....

                              Hiya SL and Jane,

                              Hope all's well there Jane and you're taking some 'me' time regularly.

                              Right on SL. For me any drama, bills, everything just has a much more negative slant to it when in the haze of booze. Easy to walk away and not deal with things and let them slide.

                              Day 129 at the beach pad but who's counting.

                              Must enrol for uni today. A couple of part time subjects for next year. Hope it goes smoothly and there's not the usual bureaucratic bungling where i have to sort out the process for admin folk paid to do just that! lol. Exciting though.

                              Cloudy and cool here. Wonder if it'll fine up later?

                              Take it easy out there.

                                Top of the morning to y'all from a stormy beach pad. The thunder has been thunderous, including some caused by an overdose of maaagnificent mince pies last night.

                                Shooting for 6 months, then it'll be a downhill coast to a year! All's well, and checking in here and to places like the newbies nest keeps my mind on the job and doesn't let me forget where i've been. But it mostly supports my plan and daily action to focus on what i want and where i'm going.

                                FAL where are you my friend?

                                Take it easy out there. ;-)
