Rava, sounds like a solid plan. We all need one during this holiday season. Ours will be small with just one other couple but no AL so that's nice. As for ice cream.... salted caramel So Delicious coconut milk ice cream. Yummy and dairy free.

I'll gladly take another 24 hours!!

58F, rainy and windy. That will be today's high, temp dropping as the day goes on.
Traveling for Thanksgiving here, so if you don't see me for a few days, that's what's up.
For those that celebrate, hope you have a great day.
A lot to be thankful for here. Attitude of gratitude day.
24 more please.

I always found ice cream to be an amazing substitute for cravings as well.

Maybe baking Christmas gifts really would be a project that you could try now to fill your evenings with something more, Cowboy! Plus, it’s a form of prayer, per Mr. V, as you are baking for others.
I like your take on the waves of change: ride them or drown in them!

I baked apple pies with my SILs on Monday. Yummy! I was having my SIL teach me how to make homemade pie crust, while at the same time coming up with an enrichment activity to do with our SIL with dementia.

I’m glad you have thought this through and have a plan, Rava, because Thanksgiving is a tough one. I’m so glad I’m not hosting this year! I just have to make a festive lettuce salad & salad dressing, and a relish tray -but enough for 25 people.
I need to shore up my plan for my social anxiety. I’m thinking I’ll take GABA Calm supplements, and maybe bring a big thermos of, I think I’ll try mixing green tea & ginger tea. Plus I’ll bring my own AF beers, sparkle water, & sodas. And eat a balanced, protein-rich meal beforehand. No, I do not go into the Thanksgiving feast starving! That just sets me up for cravings and anxiety.

Requesting another 24 please!

Another 24 hours please & thank you.

Happy Thanksgiving tomorrow to our American Cafe friends. It looks like large parts of the continent are dealing with nasty winter weather so if you’re travelling, be safe! And if alcohol is present, be strong.

Winter hit here overnight with cold temperatures and some snow.

Have a great af Wednesday everyone!

WIshing everyone a great day. Strong plan in place to stay sober. (Probably if I could just tape my mouth shut, I could avoid overeating and drinking too HAHA) Once the party is over I will be dumping all the alcohol out or giving it away. I may check back in tonight to be accountable. Another 24 for me please and thank you.

Happy Thanksgiving to my friends south of the 49th! And safe travels [MENTION=17632]Mr Vervill[/MENTION], looks like the weather down there is playing havoc with those trying to travel for the weekend.

I came over to Vegreville yesterday to help Bubba move some furniture around and to bring Hank's toybox and toys over. Then we went to the perogy supper held by the Ukrainian Catholic Church, then over to the Manor to visit with the in-laws. It was a good day all around.

An early start to the day with Black Friday sales starting already - had to do some retail therapy, spent $123 and saved $140 - came home, shovelled the driveway, had a chiropractic adjustment, more shopping and home by 10AM. Think I might take the rest of the day off!

Hope everyone has a great af Thursday and to those celebrating Thanksgiving, enjoy the day!

Re: ~cattleman cafe~ & another 24...

Quick check in post. No drinking for me. I sent my guests home with wine and food. I’m feeling pretty damned good tonight!

Re: ~cattleman cafe~ & another 24...

Well done Rava! Your Cafe friends knew you could do it!!

A friend of mine who knows of my new found bread making activity sent me a recipe for beer bread. I deleted it without reading because I knew it would mean going into a liquor store to buy beer. Not going to take the chance.

Hope everyone had a great Thursday!
