((((Nora))))

Thanks everyone......I know that I can't drink.......but, my son, niece, neighbour, etc, didn't think it was a problem. I was out having fun in the neighborhood.

I am not making excuses, I absolutely should not be drinking. I know that. But, I lived with my hubby drinking and smoking pot for years. Now that he is sober, he has zero tolerance and it is hard sometimes.

We are ok now but the feelings that I am ignoring.....hiding.......are beneath the surface. That is what I need to work on.

On a Happy note.....Go Team USA Women's Soccer!!

Morning all,
Nothing on the agenda for today except dog training tonight. I am trying to limit dates to Dave and John but they have kids that they spend a lot of time with so may branch out. I would like someone who wants to spend more time with me. Selfish maybe but I think I will add that to my mental criteria. Or find some more activities to amuse myself with. I dont know.
Sometimes I get totally overwhelmed with all the dogs. I also think they are a turn off to some of the fellows but I wont even consider any kind of relationship with them if they dont accept my dogs. They dont have to love them or clean up after them but that sure would be a bonus.
Anyway is is a beautiful day.

Hey guys, Dots,I think its hard at this stage of the dating game cuz everyone's set in their ways,if the dogs are a turn off, oh well Mondayitis, but a little relieved to go back to my routine, hope we all have a nice one

Morning all -

Dottie - I think that it is great that you are getting out.

Pauly - how are you doing?

I sure hope that Liz is having a fantastic time.

Rusty, Mama and everyone else that stops by.......HELLO AND HAVE A WONDERFUL DAY!!!!!!!!!!

[Dottie Belle]

Morning all,
Not much on the agenda for today. Need to go shopping for some jean shorts. All mine are to big by a lot. This is a good thing I think. Shows all the exercise is paying off.
Date with Dave on Thursday. John is MIA. Guess he is still with his kids/grandkids. Whatever I have lots of emails from men wanting to meet me so not an issue and Dave is doing a good job keeping in touch and he still has a day job. He is pretty good about texting and responding. I dont do that much but he does respond. He is a busy fellow too. My issue is no kids to take up my time I guess. This is why I need to get busy with my volunteer job.

HELLO WHERE IS EVERYONE?????

[NoraC]

I agree - where is everyone!?!?!?

I hope that everyone is OK.

I'm here, just best sleeping in later than the norm and by the time I read around its time to go,hot and humid here,rained cats and dogs last night, supposed to again tonight, Nora,I know "are you ok", is code for "are you drinkin" no I'm not,still frustrated from my last session, kinda shook my faith in myself, kinda like if someone cheats on you and you forgive but they keep doing it,I feel like I keep cheating on the me I want to be,that poor woman oh well,still missing damn K9,wish she was here so we could talk stuff out,its just not the same around here without her it sucks! But at least I still have you guys BTW Nora,I'm kicken your ass on fitbit,love ya guys

[NoraC]

Lol , you mean I should actually use my fitbit?? ROTFL Great job on not drinking

I did text with mama. She is working too much and too hard. She worked until 9:00 last night and is still there!

[mama bear]

I am home and it's 7:50. I have no choice but to work, so work I shall do. Thanks for worrying about me.
I still have a horrendous toothache and am too fucking busy to take care of it. But at least I have insurance now. A root canal will cost $850!!!!
I love you all...I am fine.....not drinking, but I want too.
Dottie - you go girl!!
Dinner and bed for me.

[Dottie Belle]

Morning all,
Gym later then an event at church that I will be helping with. Nice to get back to church but sad because hubbs isnt there with me but I know he is there in spirit. I have to keep putting one foot in front of the other.
