Hello everyone....

K9 - A driver's license! :goodjob: I hope you're feeling much, much better. :l

Mama - so is Clay knocking down some opponents right now??:H

Dottie - Good for you! I understand about the candy. I am really fighting going on a sugar binge. But, I had some homemade cookies today, a few m&m's and who knows what else. But, I'm really trying. :H

Glass - had to laugh about you sloshing around. Good luck on your veggie/fruit cleanse. I'm sure not ready to try that.

FD - Hey there - I'll try to read your posts more carefully and not start quizzing you about a girl. :H

Lizann - how are you doing? All set for the weekend? I know I am. I hope that you are feeling much better.


Ok - on to the next post in case I lose this one.....

Ok - I'm back........

FT - I'm really so happy for you that you have met someone that is special to you. That is really great. :h


Pauly - where are you? Did I miss you today?

Kradle - are things better today? At least you got to yell at your kids yesterday.

Sunshine Daisies - HELLO FRIEND!!!!!:h

Caper - Hi there! :wavin:

Allswell - how are you doing? :l

Juja - I miss you !!!!

JDG - Are you still busy working?? :h

Ok - here is another post......

Ok - I know that I'm going crazy on the posting here but I feel bad that we had some people stop by to join us and I didn't make a big effort to welcome and include them. I was just so wound up in my own world that I neglected people.

So, I want to say a special hello to:

Available and Lifechange :h:h

I also want to say that this thread is for EVERYONE!!! It is definitely not for certain people. It's for anyone to come and talk about life, talk about getting away from alcohol, talking about anything that helps us get thru the days sober. I know that sometimes it seems overwhelming jumping in and posting. But, please know that you will be welcomed with open arms. :l

A little bit about me and my struggle. I am on Day 24. Again!! I've done many day 24's. I am taking antabuse and to be honest that is what is getting me thru right now. I am trying to build up more and more days AF but I'll be honest, I do have the voice in my head that is telling me to stop taking the pill. So, I am trying to come here everyday. I am trying to connect with you all. So, that is my story. :l

I hope that you all feel welcome to join us here! :h

I absolutely second what Nora said - it's lovely when new people drop in, and even better when they decide to hang around!
:welcome:


I took that plunge at the beginning of the year, and now look at me. Like a limpet on a rock. They couldn't get rid of me if they tried! :H:H

Nora, you are so sweet! That was a great post! 24 days is great. Sometimes I think we need to not beat ourselves up for falling back but just commend ourselves for 24 days, even if it is "again".

How is everyone on this Saturday? Nothing too much going on for me. I'm a little sad today, so I'm going to run in a bit! Nothing like a good work out to lift the spirits. I actually HATE to run but I feel so good afterward. I woke up to CJ ( my middle daughter) running to the bathroom and throwing up. She went out with friends last night and is hung over. I love that kid, but she gives me a run for my money. I've got three kids and the middle one is the reason for all my gray hair. God give me strength.

I hope everyone has a great day. Maybe I'll check back later.

WE WON LAST NIGHT AND CLAY IS IN THE PAPER THIS MORNING......
and Nora......FD and K9 are an official "item".....I KNEW it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! And if this is a big joke, I completely fell for it....me so happy if it's true!!!
and welcome to anyone who wants to come hang with us....so sorry if I have hurt feelings by not responding...I am guilty of being self absorbed in my own issues....that's one of the definitions of an alcoholic, btw...according to AA.....being selfish and self- absorbed...

Day 24 is a worthy accomplishment no matter how many times you've been through it Nora, it's 1000 times better than a day one. Hope everyone is having a relaxing Saturday.

Nora, thanks so much for the mention yesterday and your great post today. I don't think there's anyone that's spent even just a little time reading your posts here that wouldn't intuitively get what a great person you are. Your posts are very honest and I know there are many of us who share your struggle. Huge congratulations on your 24 days!! That's fabulous news! I'm on my third - not much but lately it's as much as I've been able to put together. And although I don't post often, I do visit here almost daily. And a belated 'thank you' to everyone who's passed on their kind words to me - I appreciate it!
