30 days???

Hello all, I'm cutting and pasting from the excercise thread because I've had a day....But it didn't drive me to drink... LOL
Good for you change you really had a great treadmill workout for sure !!! Yahooo !!! Now that aut ta take a dumple out of the butt.... LOL !!!!
Hello Muchthought and welcome to our excercise group!!! Do you mind me asking though... What is sandhill crane is a frenenemy !???!!! Could it possibly be... friggin' enemy ? or something similar to that ? It's an ongowing thing we sometimes all share in common.
Today, I thought , yep I... "THOUGHT" I would take a much needed day off... Not to be... Well, I'm watching a neighbours farm for this week and got a phone call that 2 , 1 year old calves were out. So , off I go.. Ear tags are numbers , 12 and you guessed it.... 13 !!!!!
So 12 isn't tooo much trouble, but 13, forget it !! she isn''t even above trying to line me up with her heels little B****H! So here I am in my rubber boots, running through the barnyard trying my best to "head her off at the pass " so that she doesn't get away into the big pasture and then possibly into traffic.. urggg !!! This went on for ohhh about 40 minutes.. She did take little nibble breaks and you could actually see steam rolling off her back.. I'm thinking to myself, "My Hubby will just KNOW that this isn't going well after all this time has lapsed and will SURELY come to help" .... NOT !!!! $%^!^%% !!!! OHHH I WAS P ****D !!!
I had to actually leave miss #13, head home, blast hubbys and likely all neighbours ears within 1/2 mile radius !!! Not a proud 10 minutes!!!!!! So off we go to "round her up" The two of us couldn't even do it and had to get more neighbours. When miss # 13 saw that there were 6 of us, she casually walked through the gate, flipped me the bird as if to say " I was going in anyway, it was about time you opened the damned gate for ME " My only lasting thoughts of this day is, "She is gonna taste GOOD on the BBQ this fall " !!!!
So I did end up doing a workout afterall and I gotta say that running around a barnyard for about 40 minutes kicked my ass alot more than ANY eliptical or stationary bike that I know of !!! LOL !!! I'm gonna sleep fast tonight, and hopefully not see loose cows in my dreams ! urggg !!! Hugs guys ! ,
Guys I didn't even mention that we had to go into town because my washing machine blew up.... Ohhh I could be worse ,,, I could be sitting here drunk and then tomorrow I would waste a perfectly wonderful day... Yahhhh !! This IS what it's all about.... Guess I gotta go "make nice to my hubby" ohh I was sooo not a sweetie... yep.. me.

Me again, sorry about the rant, feel better now though.
Bird, I'm so proud of you stepping out and expanding on your passion with art.. Do you solder the metal? I've seen some pretty "rough" attempts of this around town that people have done with care parts, eg, mufflers etc to make people.. kinda cute, but nothing atall ATALL what you do I'm certain.. Step up to the plate and blow them out of the water with what you love to do !! Good for you ! We only have one go around in this world, so make er a good one...
Cindi it's always great to hear from you,,, you are so dang thoughtful..
Morrison, YOU my boy, ARE THE MAN !!! Good On You !!! When I read your post I had a smile from ear to ear... I'm so happy to see you making your own "sunshine".
Tex, I'm sorry to hear that you aren't able to take the route that you'd like to at this point and time, LO has and is a wonderfully proven product... I'm really grateful to have it in "my bag of tricks". One day at a time Hon.
More2, how are you doin' and feeling? Hope that you are well...
Bear, I know you are a busy fella. So good to hear that you'll fit in time to drop by... How is your back feeling? Hope it's OK... Or maybe I shouldn't ask.... sorry.
Luv, I sure hope that Zak is feeling better by now, poor lil' fella... Schools are so filled with germs... Just think, he'll be immune to whatever it is that he has right now for the rest of his life !! I always try to be optimistic about everything. Take Good Care and hope you get another 6 hours good sleep tonight ! Hugs guys,

30 days???

Boxing training is crazy

Wow. How intense. I went 40 minutes straight of training, and then had to stop. We took a couple breaks, but not much. I did better than I thought I would, but couldn't finish the first day workout. I was with a group, but I was the only new guy, so I didn't feel too bad. My body and lungs just gave out. Seriously, I couldn't breath, and I thought I would collapse. I felt like throwing up on the way home. So, it was a great workout. Was misery at the time, but do I feel good now after a cold shower. I definitely found my new hobby. I'm gonna go as much as I can, and I plan on being in better shape at 35 than I was at 25. I'm not even gonna count sober days anymore. For me, I think it may be detrimental. You know, I don't want to even think, "Hey, 2 weeks, just have a few, then take 2 more off." Or, a month, or 2, or whatever. I'm just gonna do a day at a time. Just train like I have a title fight. Haha. I'll be puking more now that I was when I was a drunk. But it will be worth it. I'm so excited. Everybody was cool. Hope to make new friends. I already fixed some stuff for the owner, cause I'm technical. Oh well, I'm being "me me me me me." I'm just feeling good for the first time in a long time. Love all of you for your support. I hope you are taking good care of yourselves too.

I was just about to say, "somebody was suppose to post a recipe." Then, I remembered the Recipe Corner Forum. Haha. You got a lot of hits on that one. Niblet, my gram used to make these things called "Pigs in a blanket." Gross name, I know. But, it looks like the same thing, except the ingredients are actually rolled in the cabbage leaf. They were actually pretty good, but everything gram made was delicious. Now I feel bad for making fun of you before. Nah, not really. We always rib the ones we love, right? Okay, I'm beat. It's bed time. Chat with you all later. Oh, welcome Resolute. :welcome:

[MDBiker]

30 days???

Welcome Resolute glad you are here.

Wow, I have missed a lot. Mostly I missed all of you. My back is doing well. I still don't pick up anything heavy, but no more pain running down the back of my legs. I have a sinus thing going on now; I think it may be infected. I went to the Dr. and he wants me to try allergy meds first then move on to a Z pack if it is still messed up. All in all I am doing well, so don't worry about me. I think God is taking care of me mostly. I think I am going to Munich Germany at the end of next month for business. Just happens I will be there during Oktoberfest. Just what I need, another temptation. I want to go since I have never been there, but I have to be adamant about the booze. I don't think I would live through another round of drunkenness. I am also going to Italy and Slovakia. It should be a good trip and I will be able to remember it.

Why is it that when I get sober I get so busy? Any of you have that happen? It is almost like I find myself inundated with “things”. Not necessarily important things, but lots of things. It also seems like everyone I know is trying to get me to do what they want me to do. I have been trying to leave everything up to God, and trying to do what I think his will is, but it is almost overpowering. Oh well, enough about me.

Nibs, I did get the pics finally. You have a great place, everything looks so peaceful. I never really took you to be a biker. lol Luv, I know you have your hands full, and you really are going to have to take care of yourself as much as possible. We don’t want you to get down. Where is Barbie? I heard Greece was burning, so I hope she isn’t in that. Tex, I hope the new meds work for you. More2 I am not forgetting you, but you seem to be doing so well I don’t know what to say. Morrison, go for it. I admire you for stepping out like that.

At any rate, it has been a long day and I am about to turn in.

God Bless you all

30 days???

hello my family, how are you? i've missed you. can't possibly keep up with what you all have been doing or what's going on. time change is weird for me so i'm not used to it yet. hummm i'm 9 hours off but it says midnite here. hummm. my sis just sent me a picture of my father in law and i and well sorry to say i had a wine glass in my hand. hummm. not good. but whatever i'll post it. i want you to see my dad as i call him. agon in chinese. at least it is a pic of well we were in greece at the time at a function. and during the entire trip i never got wasted....... yeahh team..... gosh i've missed you all so much. a person can do a lot of soul searching while on a cruise if you are like sick to the nines. so i came back with hubby and promptly since i was taking care of everyone got to feel whatA??/ yep pnemonia. nice. i have alot to say about what to do to prepare for a cruise and what to avoid. i've only had that once in my life. and i've been sick for days since i came back. so cruise girls let me tell you before you embark to keep you healthy;. so anyway i ordered l.o. but it never arrived. do you know where i can get it?
mayor. working out. yep so great. and i can give you lots of tips as i'm a work out goddess. i have been doing bootcamp since jan. but then i went on vacation and well i got all jelly like as we do in our 40s. problem is i now with all my beauty treatments look like my friend said today 28 and i haven't seen him for 4 years. oopsy cuz he is 28. how did i now get butt on leg. hummmm must change that. butt used to be nice now it just drifts like down. so don't worry about puking i do that every class. lol
nibs i miss my update on the ranch
tex i miss your stories
luvbug well how is mama? i'm just sending you and your kids and mama love
moreto>? any news on new places to buy? i just rejoined city club so now i'll be golfing every month out there in desert. let me know what you want me to hunt up. i did tell you my bro is number 2 developer in the state yes? so if you want something in the desert he will know about it. pm me i'll give you the scoop
bear are you feeling okay? sounds like you are much more chipper. so happy. i just love my papa bear and have missed him greatly.
well, that's it, i've just missed you all a ton. i don't have alot of bootsie stories. i was just hanging. but i will tell you about turkey. and i will tell you about greece. ohhhhhhhhhh. the scoop. honestly, my nephew and i decided we should do our own travel guide. my hubby was sick most of the trip so there was i and nephew and dad 80 and we hiked liked 5 miles a day. i know how to just cut lines all day long. and well, you want my travel guide. i know every favorite scoop. we finally decided how the cruise lines and the cabbies were just screwing the tourists all day long. wow, i think we spent an extra 1000 just because we didn't know we were being screwed. now, i have the scoop. so pm me okay on to bed i need to kick this walking fricking pnemonia.

[bootcampbarbie]

30 days???

resolute. i just want to say welcome. for me, no one welcomed me to the site but bear and then my little family here at luv's house gushed with welcome. so, i want to say welcome. there isn't a story that you can tell that will embarrass you or any of us and that is probably one thing to get off your mind. i know i had years sober and then went out but then found this place, and i can say it has saved my marriage and well this group is my home group. they are my family. i felt really like a loner here til i came to love's section (Love's section). then she and bear and the rest of the clan made me feel right at home. so, if you want to just settle in, great. know that like me i just butted in. and then well i stayed. i don't much go anywhere else on the site but i come here. because here, is home. there are a few that touch in from time to time but then there are those of us who really connect and touch base everyday. so there you go. anyone is welcome, you all. anyone. i butted in. i just wanted a place to call home. and well love's section seemed the perfect place to do it. after all she is love...... perfection pure and sweet. she is love. and right after her is papa bear. well you couldn't find a kinder man in all the world. go figure a biker at that. lol. speaking from a former tatoo artist. (oooh don't you just want to know that bootsie story). and then my main stays
tex. well tit for short. wow, you can't get a better story or more real than this woman. i mean talk about down to your guts real.. frick and she is so guts raw i just love her. i really admire everything about tex.
more to. well she is i think a bit more shy then tex but she has more spunk than anyone i know. i don't even think i could keep up and like me we are going to go af or bust
mayor morrison. well, this guy, i love him more than most. there is something he doesn't know about himself that is magical and beautiful. he just well hasn't discovered it yet. so if he doesnt' kill himself. well, we will see if he gets the shining and goes for it. i root for him to come to my house and do some bootcamp training.
luv bug. oh gosh. she is the most beautiful heartfelt being i've encountered in a long time.
i mean down to my bones i feel her. everytime she speaks i get it. everytime. she needs to be writing a book or public speaking. this woman simply rocks. i dig her
bear. i wanted to add to this. well papa bear is a wise counsil. if i had met him anywhere on my path, i'd have known that man. he's wise, he's good to the bones and he gives to the bones. he will never let an odd man out.
niblet. can you add a more down to earth woman that is real and funny and makes you laugh when you want to just die? i mean this woman has heart and soul mixed together. she just constantly gives raw good real.
gosh that leaves me: well, i know who i am but i don't know what others perceive. i'm without regard to social norm, let's say that which is why this is my home group. and i have a heart bigger than the universe. and well, i love telling a good story but i'm more sensitive then i seem. tremendously sensitive

WELCOME HOME Bootsie! Thought you'd never come back. I am so sorry to hear you are sick. But, so happy you are home!

BEAR...you wrote just in time...I was calling you today!!!!! I believe we should give each other space if we need it, but I was starting to worry...it isn't like you not to post for days. I MISSED YOU...AND I agree, we need to stick around. Even though we are doing well, it is so EASY to slip back. I need the group and you do too. Make time!!! Even if you just pop in and say all is well....I know I have hard days and it helps so much to come here and share. I feel overwhelmed with SO MUCH TO DO also. I think what happens is, we are noticing what we should have been doing. And, everyone is so happy to have the SOBBER US, they want to spend time with the sobber person you now are.

Welcome Bird and Resolute!!!!! Glad to have you join us. Jump in and start sharing, we are all here sharing day to day life and helping each other get through. I would be LOST without everyone here. I owe my sobriety to everyone at MWO, but this group has become my rock. I share everything with them. Good day or bad day...come here and share. We all have a common problem...some of us are AF and some are moderating. WHATEVER your goal, we are here for support and friendship. NO ONE JUDGES ANYONE! You slip , we do our best to encourage you back to your goal. This is our home away from home and you can be open, honest, and free with your thoughts and feelings here.
