[MENTION=24080]Jude58[/MENTION], great post. I can absolutely relate to that.

I missed my check in yesterday, but not because I drank, it was a LONG day and I went from work to bed with about 30 seconds in between.

My condolences Techie on your loss.

I can feel this stage that I am at. There is some pride and some bright shiny momentum as I tackle day 18. That feeling tends to be what I grab a hold of and ride through the initial month or so. As that feeling slowly slides into normalcy I have to keep my guard up. That is the time that I tend to forget all of the bad things and just remember the fun. Funny how our minds parse out memory to fit our particular addiction.

Anyway, 24 for me please and thanks.

Another 24 hours please & thank you.

Thanks for that great reminder Jude that alcohol is not, and never has been, our friend. All it has done is steal from us, negatively impact our health, relationships and cost us money and much more.

We made great progress yesterday in getting rid of empty boxes. A month or so before we moved, we bought a package of moving materials from U-Haul. It contained several sizes of boxes, wrapping paper, tape, bubble wrap, markers, box cutters - essentially everything you need to move. I highly recommend it to anyone thinking of moving. Our condo office manager has taken the boxes for future use by residents moving out, only costing them a donation to a local charity.

It’s to be nice and warm today, I foresee a break from unpacking to enjoy our balcony with a coffee and a book.

Have a great Thursday everyone!

Wow! Jude, that was an excellent reminder. I may have to save that so I can find it when AL niggles my brain!

QW, I hope you get some reading time today. You deserve a break.

Bil has been diagnosed with chronic lymphatic leukemia. Now he waits to see an oncologist for staging. Ugh. He's a rock and waiting patiently.

24 more here, please!

Wow Jude what a wake up post. It was worth the read and I’m saving it. Ginger, so sorry about your BIL. Hope everyone has a great day today. Another 24 for me please and thank you.

Techie, I am so sorry for your loss. Your mom sounds like she was a really special lady.

Ginger, I'm sorry to hear about your bil.

Jude, I got a call from the volunteer coordinator asking me if I was interested in coming back to volunteer at the hospital. She has been having a hard time filling the ER positions. I was busy the whole time I was there!

24 more please and thank you.

Another 24 hours please & thank you.

Happy Birthday Dill! Hope you enjoy your special day.

We enjoyed a coffee and the sunshine yesterday afternoon on our balcony, nice break from housework. And as a bonus, we had a visit with some of our family last evening, socially distant, mask wearing, outdoors, of course.

Have a great POETS Day everyone, enjoy it af.

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

Cowboy, you are amazing! You never fail to remember a birthday and other important dates. Thank you so much for the cake and birthday wishes!

It was a beautiful sunny, but chilly, morning. It felt like it was made just for me on my birthday! Mr. D surprised me with a couple of beautiful plants from a local nursery. It's going to frost tonight so I will have to hold off on planting them.

My gift to myself is another 24 hours of clarity and freedom.

Thanks everyone for your birthday greetings. Lets all have a good 24!
