    5:21am in Alberta, I'll have another 24 please, and thanks...

    In the last 24 hours, these friends have signed in for 24 hours of wellness:

    Today is go7ng 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.

        Merry Christmas Cafe. Dill, your post makes complete sense. I am the same way with not being able to keep it in the house and if I do, I drink it. Not beer tho, I hate it. No need for all the guilt and shame. It’s not worth it ruining your day. And not sharing your alcohol problem with others is totally ok in my opinion! Compare it to your worst drinking days and it’s just a blip in time. Last night the booze was flowing freely. I took a wine bottle and added some sparkling ginger ale. That helped me not drink alcohol and not even missing it. I also stayed away from the bar area and sat in the living room away from all the action. I will do the same tonight at the next party. This time last year, I got so wasted I was throwing up the next day. I keep that awful memory tucked in my brain and do NOT want to repeat that mess. QW thanks so much for checking in. So glad to hear from you! Wishing everyone a wonderful day. 24 more please and thank you.

          QW, thank you for checking in. When you didn't respond to my email my monkey brain went crazy! I'm sorry about your wife's progression and Mexico. Did we know about your shoulder? I don't recall the story. Anyway, we miss you around here. Thanks for checking in

          Merry Christmas to everyone! I'll take another day of freedom.

            Rava, glad that you made it through the party without drinking. It's good to keep remembering how bad your last hangover was. I know that for me it goes a long way in keeping me sober.

            Mr. J and I had a nice quiet day at home yesterday. We grilled some steaks, and I made wild rice, roasted asparagus and mushrooms. Yummy!

            Hope that all of you had a wonderful Christmas!

            I'm in for another 24 hours of peace...

                Kudos to you Rava, I'll bet you won't have any problem tonight either.

                We had a pretty low-key Christmas as well Jude, enjoyed our Zoom get together with all the kids and I did a maple syrup glazed ham on the smoker, mini potatoes, beans, and holupchi, with kutya for dessert.

                Waves to the rest of the gang, have a relaxing Boxing Day y'all!

                  Happy boxing day.

                  We had a huge feast. We ate outside, which was an added treat. Later, I went down to a friend's house that's alone and we watched the movie Four Christmases. Hilarious! She was grateful for the company and I was grateful not to have to watch football. Lol Starting Saturday, I'll be pup sitting for her. We'll have Izzy for two weeks. She's a lovely little Shih Tzu and Cyrus gets along fine with her. I see lots of dog walks in my future!

                  Hope we all have an easy day! I'll take another day of freedom

                    Good morning and Happy Boxing Day to those who celebrate. Made it thru another celebration with lots of drinking all around. None for me thank goodness. Mr. R rarely drinks and I dont think he even had anything. Waking up this morning feeling great! I am so grateful. We are spending 1 more night with the grands before heading back to the tiny house. I am thankful for all my friends in this group! Xoxo 24 more please and thank you.

                      Well done, Rava! And the best reward was waking up without a hangover!

                      Late check in here. I had volunteering this morning at O dark thirty.

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

                      If it is important to you, you will find a way. If not, you will find an excuse.

                            We are soon going to be celebrating the New Year. Where did 2024 go?! We will just stay home and watch a movie or something. We long ago quite going out on New Years's Eve. It's safer and calmer at home. What plans do you all have?

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

                                It sounds like we all got through Christmas just fine, let's carry it through into the New Year and beyond!

                                Bubba and I are going to go to Boston Pizza for supper(dinner?) New Year's Eve. We'll just order a bunch of different appetizers to eat starting with the French onion soup, and I love their iced tea! Then it will home to maybe watch a movie but no way will we still be up to see the New Year in!
