Pauly, I agree with Fen. When bad energy falls on every aspect of our day it's time for a break no matter how short. You need that Me Time.

Pauly - we have all been there. Please know that and also know that we love you and will support you & help you.

I just finished reading 'Bridges of Madison County' (yes - I know that is old news) but I can't stop crying. I seriously can't stop crying. Maybe, I'll have to watch the movie someday....... but not until I can stop this crying.

Pauly - can you try to connect here first thing in the morning. I know that I am really lax about checking in until the evening but I'll be watching so that we can talk thru this. Hang in there girl - you have SO MUCH going on. :h

Pauly... Glad you're fighting the good fight again today... you're not giving in. :l And please don't say that you're ashamed to post and, hell, certainly don't feel like an ass on this thread. We have ALL been there... ARE there... WILL BE there... you know? You've had a hell of a lot going on in your life. You sure you won't consider an outpatient detox instead of tapering... you could even follow it with an IOP course to keep you on track. Think about it anyway luvvie... and whatever you decide we are here for you and I hope you know that... :l

Alls... I think the break would be a good idea for Pauly too... might be just the ticket.

And, yep Liz... we've all been there... the despair and anxiety...

Niner... How did you do last night hon? Still waiting to hear all about the new job! Sent you a PM earlier, let me know your thoughts. I won't be around today, but I'll be back tomorrow. XXX

Mama... How are your ears and sinuses? Do you think you should call the Doc for Amoxycillin? Might not be a bad idea if you have to go up to Orlando on Thursday. Are the rest of the fam sick?

Fenny... I use Benadryl too... I buy them in bulk really cheaply from the pharmacy. I actually have 300 generic going free to a good home if you want them. I have 2 bottles of 300 and won't get through them before the expiration.

Nora... I don't think I'll be reading Bridges of Madison County any time soon! Given the correct mood and alignment of the stars I will cry at a comedy! I hope you felt better after, sometimes a cry is cathartic ('cept for the red nose!). Anything you want to talk about?

Kradle... Enjoy the camping hon!!! The teeth and Mr Bill all at once tried my patience totally the other day, but one will persevere! Or one will be in a psych ward or a jail! lol

Hiya Reccy, Nursie and everyone else! :wavin:

I'm off to Fort Lauderdale for the day and early evening, probably won't check in till tomorrow. We have a couple of business type meetings, then an alternative doctor meeting (this should be interesting!) and meeting a friend also. Oh and picking up a car part. And I want to go to the tan salon when we get back up this way. Very much doubt it will all get done.

We managed to sneak in to see the end of Lucy last night after watching Hercules... felt like a naughty school kid!

Happy hump day... be well! XXX

Oops... almost forgot... :h

Morning all,
Off to the gym for a good workout. I have not eaten well the past few weeks so I really need this to work off stress. Dragging dh too....
Pauly you know how to do this.....hang with us we are here for you. Yes we have ALL been there.
K9 hope u are doing well today too...

[mama bear]

One Step at a Time - July 2014

Have FUN Zennifer. Glad the toofuses are better. What kind of alternative doctor are you checking out?? You are always up to something.....that's cool
I may consider going to a doc in the box, but I really can't afford it since I will be travelling. I am getting reimbursed for any expenses, but I don't want to travel with an empty wallet.
Benadryl works?? I take anti anxiety meds at bedtime and have built up a fairly good tolerance.....so IO am not sure they would work.
Pauly - are you going to work??? I swear the insanity of having to get through my days helps keep me away from the bottle.
Back to it.....I will check in later

[mama bear]

One Step at a Time - July 2014

I LOVE YOU ALL.........from the bottom of my wee heart...

[K9Lover]

One Step at a Time - July 2014

Checking in as per my betrothed's request :l
I did "OK" last night...I was very busy rearraning all of my furniture. I'm sore as hell today, but my house looks nice. Sierra can't quite get the concept of the couch being around the fireplace instead of the TV. I tried to explain the "formal living room" to her. LOL Like I'm all fancy and stuff. hehe Anyway, now the TV is in the "den" with only one recliner in front of it...not like we ever watch TV together anyways. LOL

I want off this ride too Pauly!! How did you do last night? I think it's time for me to get back on the AB...

Zenny, my job is GREAT. I haven't had much time to go into detail, but I will once I am alone in the office!

Love you all! Yes I said it and I mean it...I LOVE YOU DAMNIT! hehe :l:l

:hallo: steppers!

Sorry you're having drink problems pauly and niner, you both have an awful lot on your plates at the moment. I agree with the others about the need for a break pauly. Glad you're enjoying your job niner, it's so important to be happy at work.

And sorry about your sinus problems mrs bear, you could really do without those with your business trip coming up.

Enjoy your camping kradle, when/where are you going?

Well done on getting to the gym yesterday zenny. It's great that your root canal isn't sore. Hope you have a productive trip to Ft Lauderdale.

Black is the only colour available to me too BTW, but there's a little trick you can use to get the other colours. Ask me when you get home if you like.

What was your book about nora? It must have been a very powerful read if it makes you cry like that.

Your fitbit sounds like a handy gadget fenny, it's got to be a good thing to be able to measure how much exercise you're doing each day. Not sure if I ever watched The Double Deckers, but the name certainly rings a bell.

Apologies to those I haven't mentioned. Hope everyone has a fantastic day.

Who says our smilies and hugs are not real? I feel them when I give them and I feel them when I give them! I love you guys so much!
I am doing well. Eating too much but hey.
My friend is doing ok I guess, she went to the city to be with her cousin for awhile.
I wish I could just make a standing appointment with myself to go to the gym but I don't! Must. Get. To the gym.
K9, you flushed it? Man you must have been mad at it!! You want me to send you some?
Pauly we love you. Don't be down on yourself we have all done it. If this shit was easy we wouldn't need to be here! Chin up!
I love you people. Serious love. True love.
Back later!
