    Rava, put your slip behind you and keep moving. I know that I would have gone out and grabbed a bottle of wine afterwards, but you didn't. Good job nipping it in the bud before you went down that rabbit hole again.

    I have a doctors appointment this morning but other than that, I have no plans for today, but I know that there will be no booze.

    24 more for all of us please...

      Good morning Cafe. Thanks for the support. No thoughts of drinking last night after my slip. Today we are cleaning and preparing the tiny house for the winter. Taking down my lawn decorations, etc. We fly back tomorrow. I am ready for the warmer weather and seeing our friends down south. My one neighbor wanted to know what time we were arriving and said she will have our dinner in our kitchen waiting for us when we get home. (We have keyless entry and she will just bring it over and leave it). I love that! Didn’t really have any formal goodbyes with the grands because that makes leaving harder. We just casually say see ya! Hope everyone has a wonderful day. 24 more please and thank you.

        Today is going to be a darn good day not to drink!
        Quitting and staying quit isn't easy, its learning a whole new way of thinking. It's accepting a new way of life, and not just accepting it, embracing it...
        Worry about tomorrow, tomorrow. Just get through today. Tomorrow will look after itself when it becomes today, because today is all we have to think about.
        Friendship is not about how many friends you have or who you've known the longest. It's about who walked into your life, said "I'm here for you", and proved it.

          Good job Rava on just having the 2 drinks, I know I could never stop at 2. Hopefully you don't have too much work getting the tiny house closed up and getting ready for the flight home tomorrow.

          Hope all goes well at your Dr's appt Jude.

          There's lots of cowboy poets dill, just Baxter is one of my favorites. Your pics didn't post for me?

            Thanks for the feedback on the pics, Cowboy. I tried using the insert Image button at the top of the message window here. I guess it didn't work. I'll try again another way. Let me know if it works

              What a beautiful setting , Dill. Thank you for sharing!

              Rava, I'm curious... what kind of business dinner, may I ask? Sounds like you survived the slip. Good for you for stopping at 2. Safe flight home! Sounds like you have a lovely neighbor.

              Hi Jude, ABC, Mul

              Off to my last knee appointment before we take off. I'm feeling a little improvement. I'll take another day of freedom!

              Comment


                Ginger, I'm glad you are experiencing some improvement. I hope that keeps going!

                Rava, your neighbor sounds like a treasure! I agree with you formal goodbyes are no necessary. It's more of a 'see you soon' kind of a thing.

                It's a beautiful day here. I love October weather! Cold at night, warm in the daytime. And the light is just gorgeous when the sun is out.

                24 more for all of us here, please and thank you.

                  Love the pics dill, it reminds me of home. Rava, good job at keeping those thoughts of alcohol at bay. So many of our actions are a direct result of negative thoughts, so keep them positive! Sounds like you have a gem of a neighbor!

                  Hope that everyone has a wonderful and booze free day! I know that I will! 24 more please...

                    I trust your doctor's appointment went well yesterday, Jude. Today is my day for a Well visit. For the first time ever I am meeting with my doctor's PA instead of my doc. I am glad to have the opportunity to meet the PA. I would rather see my doc, but the reality is, she is just too busy! She's a really good doc; I see my doctor 2 times a year so I don't mind having one of those visits with the PA.

                      Good morning Cafe. Dill, your pictures are beautiful. The colors are so vivid. Ginger, I am glad that your knee is starting to improve a bit. Maybe it will just take time. The business dinner was more of an awards ceremony. It was cash bar thus stopping at 2. I am just too cheap in a good way. Today is travel day. Hopefully no delays and my next post will be from Florida. Wishing everyone a great and sober day. 24 more please and thank you.

                          Loved the pics dill, beautiful fall colors!

                          Have a safe trip back to Florida Rava, enjoy the dinner that your friend has laid out for you.

                          Glad to hear you feel some improvement in your knee Ginger, hopefully good news when you see the specialist.

                          Waves to Jude, hope you have a wonderful day as well.

                            Happy Halloween! Not sure why, but it's always been a favorite holiday of mine.

                            Rava, I'm sure that you're glad to be back home again!

                            Another 24 hours please...

                              It's always been a favorite of mine too, Jude! I think because it's fun and families go out together. When our kids were little we lived in town and the people hosted campfires around the different neighborhoods. Roasted marshmallows, hot dogs and cider. Yummy!
