No, you didn't frighten me away fenny. You're stuck with me, I'm afraid!

Nursie, could you make a single appointment with an alcohol counsellor for your friend and maybe offer to go along with her as well, if she wants? If you tell her the appointment has already been paid for, she might possibly feel an obligation to go. A good counsellor may be able to get her to understand that she needs help or at least get her thinking about it seriously. It's a long shot, I realise, but I'm kind of clutching at straws here.

I've started us off on a new game, zenny. And yes, let's sit down and have a natter over Words soon. It's been too long! :upset:

The dentist I go to now is a friend of Jim's... I've known him for years and he's really nice and a great dentist. Plus they give me nitrous oxide which helps matters hehe...

I've never had nitrous oxide, and that's probably a good thing! Else, I'd be coming up with all sorts of dental woes. :H

Oh Nora...Nursie :l:l:h:h

Nora you're still coming here, still trying, still posting, still a wonderful, wonderful friend and wife and mom. I'm at the Pheonix airport right now waiting to board and as I look around at all these people, so many of them all wither own stories but all deeply human just like you.
I'll text when I land in Sacramento...(yes, they routed me through CA! )

Nurse, I just left Mathieu and my biggest take away is I realized that all I can do is help him but I can NEVER stop him....please try those your friend in the same light. It's very freeing. Mathieu is self deceived just like your friend....You can be sad, disappointed but never ever feel guilty or responsible- that way lies Madness my love:h

Am reading back...still haven't read about the vibrators.........

Our week has been totally messed up but we didnt expect him to die so soon....so we are adjusting as needed. NOT cheap to fly but then fewer days for the gang to be in the kennell.....
I HATE dentists...money grubbing mongers...I have more teeth with gunk in them than not and I take care of them..right now no insurance so I am looking for low cost for cleanings. Have not found that yet They want over 200 just to walk in the door for xrays etc...I dont want xrays...just clean my teeth...bleh...

I miss so much on the days I work! Read back a bit.

Nora I hope you're ok. You have helped me so much. You always seem so strong. Let me know if theirs anything I can do to help you.

Kradle your post tonight was spot on for me. My sister is having problems with her 19 year old adopted daughter. I will pass on your words of wisdom. They came at exactly the right time.

Busy day for me and I'm off to shower and bed. I love you all and appreciate your support so much. Hugs and sweet dreams.

Geez, this thread is slow to get going in the morning, what with K9 learning to water board and mama being on vacay!

Anyway, I hope my peeps are okay today. I don't have anything on my plate, except to go to mom's house and bring her some vittles.

Hello lovies,
I woke up in such a fret, I don't know why, because I didn't drink. But I woke up feeling guilty as if I had. The feeling was so hard to shake all morning.
I TTFP.
I also ordered the Patch to quit smoking.
Now I'm relaxing at home but I should be cleaning, working out, and being productive.
Right after I finish this movie....
Someone send me some motivation vibes!
Xoxo

I'm sure my eyes light up when I see that mask! :H

Nora, you are NOT a downer! We all have bad days, plus the reason we all met each other in the first place is we were looking for support, and that?s what this thread is for? support? and a lot of laughs!

Welcome home Kradle!

:waving: everyone!

I?ve just finished up work and I?m about to head to the gym. Stormy day out there. I weighed myself this morning and the weight loss seems to have finally kicked in after the Charlotte eat-a-thon? I?m really hoping to lose weight before I go home next month. It ain?t bloody easy though? :upset:

BBL...
