30 days???

Oky,

We "cross" posted or something.

I am THRILLED to read your post about not drinking in the airport or on the plane. Two of my HUGE triggers. :l

I am so happy you are doing well.

My parents are coming up to Vt with me.

I pray it works for me, as well.

Love,
Cindi

TNT,

I responded to your post, too.

It was kind of short and succint.... Make her pay for your stay at the Meadows and you will go.

Not to be mean or anything, my daughter is my best friend, so I know the issues.

Unfortunately, she is as much a drunk as I am.

She WOULD pay for me to be cured because she knows what a burden this is. Huge.

It sounds like you are doing really well and not drinking much. If she doesn't believe you, then she doesn't understand you won't lie.

I am totally p*ssed at your counselor, too.

Love,
Cindi

Excited

Cindi I am so excited for you, when do you leave, is it 8/1 or so??? WOW, I really hope it works for you too.............this craving is horrible, 8 days and not really having problems yet, not feeling well enough yet, but when I do, look out....................I will kid myself into thinking "this time will be different", well hopefully not AGAIN!!!

TNT, I went to your thread, read, wrote a short post, today has been very stressful and busy for me at work, so I can't spend any time on here really.....................

talk to you all tomorrow!!!

Nibs, thanks, love you too..............Bird, LUV, Barbie, Oky and everyone else if I missed you , that goes for you too!!:l:h

Luv, I wish I could lend a hand... Maybe your daughter would love to learn how to make all these yummy dishes to help out? I'm drooling thinking about cheesecake and lasagne... yum !

Cindi, I'm really happy to hear that your parents will go along with you to Vt. What a great idea...
Well, it's getting on in the evening and I want to go and relax for a bit before heading up to bed... I really enjoy crochetting on my afghan.. Oh, and dinner was super-d-duper. I ended up making a pan of brownies with fudge icing... I hear it was good...giggle, giggle.
Hugs, and night, night, xxx

Good Morning Everyone
It sure is great waking up to this wonderful group!
A little tired this morning. Could sure use some java but it's on my no-no list.
I guess my body must be de-toxing. Still woking on making the diet changes. It's going to take some effort but worth it I know.
Have a wonderful day everyone and congrats again to Buckle and Greenie!

Hi all,
Tex I will go to your thread next. Not much here today. Made a super big outside cage for the finches today. Been wanting to get them out of the house for awhile. CG i think they have quinoa at Publix. Went to the free movies yesterday and saw Nanny McPhee. It was really good. Later on...bird

heya cats n kitties! just a quick howdy, Dx and I are off to a concert in a few minutes.

Okydoky, nice to meet you!

Cowgal, have you tried L-glutamine for cravings? for some it takes 12 plus grams per day (not mg) which equates to 3 rounded teaspoons if you are using the bulk powder form.

be well everyone......I gotta go get dressed.....

[cowgal]

30 days???

Hey

Hi all, Det, I will try L-Glut, I just don't know what kind to buy, I heard bulk is best so I can use it in powder form, so will order today.......................gotta do something, I think about drinking soooooooo much right now, feeling so good, like I can drink again, like it won't do the same thing to me this time..........................CRAZY!!!

Bird, thanks, I haven't had time to go to health food store (haven't had time to do ANYTHING lately, been so busy!) Day 10 for me today, double digits, feeling invincible!! Going to Orlando tomorrow for the weekend, feeling ok, but scared I may give in to drinking, I am sure Mike will be.....................will call my friends in AA to help me through the rough times, and REMEMBER how I felt on 7/7! Not good!!:upset:

Oky, Luv, Best.................you guys sound so "FREE" of the pull of al................I am so happy for you, over 100 days, that is awesome!:goodjob:

Love you guys, Cindi, don't worry..................at least you will get a little vacation out of this too, I am worrying about Houston, haven't heard anything, may go to website and see what it says, don't want to bug Barry again..................but I would like to plan the trip if it is going to happen!! I am looking at it as a small vacation, I will get away for a week alone, I love the tought of it!!! I really hope it happens!

30 days???

wow alot to read. all that food sounds so very good. yummy. well i'm up way early. i realized that my natural alarm clock is 6 or 630 and i think from here on in instead of oversleeping i'lljust get up. hahahahah and today is my 48 bday. whoop whoop. so in honor of that i'm giong to go and wash that grey right out of myhair and i'm i think buy an outfit. nothing too crazy. and get some errands done. tomorrow i told hubby we could celebrate bday by going to see batman movie. he wanted to do dinner out by i'm juicing right now and i said well no food and i am not drinking so dinner would be like a glass of carrot juice. hahahahaaha not really exciting. he said how about spa. i said well i just put on fake tan so it will wash off. hahahaahah he's trying so hard. i know though he just bought me a new juicer. cindi it will be great for you. it's funny cuz i have heard of two people that decided to drink again after their experience and both were bipolar and severely depressed. so i'm thinking that maybe that is the only thing that really hampers that experience. cuz it seems like in that experience you'd rather drink even if you didn't want it. but i'm going on ummmm what is it? oh yeah 7 months that is over 210 days and wow, can you imagine 210 days that i don't want or crave or think or act all weird in between cuz i'm hooked? funny. okay on with bday celebration. it's my private one. i'm hiking dogs as they want to celebrate. last nite i read a novel. and hey today i may read another. that's my luxury. have a good day you all. birdie hi i am thinking about you, nibs, best, luv bug, oky, tex, more 2, cindi and cowgal and anyone else i forgot to mention. sorry about that
