Slo, six and a half years is amazing, congratulations!

Cowboy, might have to start using my phone instead of my kindle to write posts. Hate to post anything on my phone because everything is so small and it's hard to type, but I'll give it a whirl.

Ginger, glad that you and your sister are having a good time and that she didn't leave early.

I'm in for another day of freedom.

Today is going to be a darn good day not to drink!

[Rava]

Good morning and congrats Slo for 6.5 years. Such a great accomplishment!!! Ginger, I thought you were in the warmer weather. You must be freezing like me. Glad your sister is still there. I hope everyone has a great and sober day. Heading to the grocery store later today. 24 more please and thank you.

That's pretty cold for where you are Ginger, but as you said, no snow. I imagine the places that got that snow like dill's daughter were amazed by it. What kind of truck did you get?

It's hard to believe you're at 6.5 years already Slo, congratulations! It's annoying when those warnings in the vehicles pop up for no reason.

I wouldn't be able to post from my phone either Jude, too small of everything for me lol.

Lots of pretty snow fell here yesterday. Which means it’s no longer “too cold to snow”!

I am undergoing a “New Mind”, brain re-set program right now, so 3x/week I go in and have electrodes attached to my head, and wear glasses with flashing lights in them, and ear plugs with special music. We’re trying to bring my brainwave patterns into a more normal pattern, to heal from C-PTSD, anxiety, & depression. It’s part of a larger program to heal (if possible) from the severe peripheral neuropathy that I am struggling with. So I will go and do that program again today.

24 for more hours for me, please!

Congrats on 6.5 years, Slo. Good luck with the mind reset appt today. I'll be thinking about you.

Sis has been a big drinker just like me. She decided her health was taking too big a hit so decided to quit for two weeks. She hit that mark and felt so much better she's continued. I think she's at five weeks now. It's sure made it easier to have her here!

We bought a 2025 Ford Maverick Pickup. It's more like a car with a bed. It's a hybrid so that will take a bit of getting used to.

Waves to all! I'll take another day of freedom!

Late check in due to volunteer job. WOW! Beautiful truck, Ginge! I'm sure you will enjoy it.

[Mulburry]

Not too much going on here, we've still been having nice weather, but I've been pretty sick all week, so not making the best use of it (a little stroll in the sun here or there). I keep hearing about all this bitter cold, snow and ice everywhere, and I'll say I'm glad to be outside of that polar vortex!

Ginger999 wow that sure looks like a nice truck. And I'm glad to hear that your keeping the environment in mind too with a a hybrid (seems like so few people are these days) !

That sounds interesting, let us know how it works out for you. Also, if your comfortable discussing it I'm wondering what exactly your symptoms are from peripheral neurophathy. I've sometimes suspected I might have some mild PN from alcohol use.

Nice truck Ginger! I've only bought two brand new vehicles in my life, and that was years ago. We always buy used cars and have never had a major problem with them. It helps that Mr. J is really good at fixing mechanical things.

Slo, I hope that The New Mind therapy works for you. I've never heard about it before, but I hope that it helps you.

I'm in for another 24 hours of peace.

[Rava]

Good morning cafe! Slo, the new mindset therapy sounds interesting. I hope it works for you! Ginger, beautiful truck. Love the look of it and the fact that it’s a cross between a truck and a car with the bed in the back. Very cool! Mul, hope you start feeling better! Wishing all my cafe friends a great Friday. 24 more please and thank you.

[abcowboy]

That's too bad about being sick through the nice weather Mulburry, hope you're back to normal soon.

That's a pretty sweet ride Ginger, I'm sure you're going to like the hybrid feature.

How did the treatment go yesterday Slo, is it something you feel the results of right away?

Waves to Jude and dill!

[Ginger999]

Sorry you've been under the weather, Mul. There's a nasty bug going around, that's for sure. Hope you're back to 100% soon.

Waves to all my pals in the Cafe! I'll take another day of freedom
