Mother is deffo coming back to herself. Has lost some confidence and likes me there a lot these days.
She actually said to DD that I am a different person since I stopped drinking. She never really asked WHY I stopped just accepted it.
Who knew she'd even notice.
We really do fool ourselves that no-one notices.:egad:

Young Satz had another lapse last Sunday - but back on the wagon again.
He was coming home to collect car & got off bus and into pub.
Something must have clicked and he left pub & came home. But he had the taste for it and asked should he go down and listen to music later. I said no / his father said no - he argued the point - but didn't go.
Small steps I suppose.
He is now in a relapse group.
I am going to Concerned Person's group each week and the mantra is 'detach with love'...... I've yet to learn what that actually means -short of throwing them out to die in the gutter.
Dublin's city streets are full of these cases.

Thats interesting. My mum never asked why either. Just seemed pleased about it.

Young Satz is going through what we all did I reckon. Stop start stop start.

I think detach with love is allowing him to make his own mistakes but not supporting that I guess. Eg if there are consequences to his actions don't sort them for him. Probably the toughest thing in the world though....

WhooHoo!

Netflix has landed in SA!:welldone:

Netflix is my best friend Sunny. It will give you hours of fun

[starty]

Morning, Army! Came across this info for an AF comedy performance in your part of the world. Possibly you can Google for other dates and places? Sounds like great fun to me, and would love to get together with you all and attend, if that were possible. It's been awhile since I wet myself laughing.

Fancy a good laugh to brighten up the winter nights? Why not come along to Alcohol Concern’s Dry Humour night next Wednesday, February 10th, at the Leicester Square Theatre in London? Jo Brand and Paul Tonkinson will be performing (amongst others)

Thanks for this Pie. I will look out for it on Youtube. I love Jo Brand

[starty]

Don't know how big this image will come out but if you can imagine these much bigger its more or less what we got..............there's even teeny weeny bananas in it.

Gorgeous flowers JC. Your inlaws must be delighted !

[satz123]

Morning Starts and those to arrive :checkin:

[satz123]

Today I refuse to be sad - I'm a good person doing the best I can with what I've been given.
Some things I do & say may disappoint others but it is never intentional.

So here this will give us a laugh :

[IamMary]

Good morning.
Still in bed, kids have been outsourced! Lovely sunny morning. I'm sure Starty is up and gone already!!
How was the cemetery yesterday Satz??
Lovely meal last night then then we headed over to the party. Loud, hot and standing room only... Is it just me???? Shouting was the only way to communicate or lip reading but one contact lens was in arse ways so I was probably fake laughing at someone telling me they had a terminal illness.
So happy to be home.

[IamMary]

Hahaha Satz. I like that!!

No you can't please them all.. And sure life would be boring if we were all perfect!

[IamMary]

Off to make a cake, heading to the inlaws.
Coconut layer cake I think.

[JackieClaire]

Morning..............feel like we can relax today........planning surprises is a bit nerve wrecking.
