Wildflower, would love to have you hang out here with us. Anyone is welcome. Like Pauly says the more the merrier!

Happy New Year! I'm glad we all made it through unscathed! I had such a good time yesterday celebrating at the engagement party and then at hubby's cousins house. I couldn't really eat much but thankfully felt ok. It was so nice to catch up with everyone and just literally laughed all night! Looking forward to a happy healthly sober 2017 with all of you! :love:

Happy New Year everyone.

I hope that everyone is having a wonderful New Year's day. Haven't done anything productive today and I'm ok with that. I was asleep by a little after 11:00 last night and slept in until 10:00. We had the fireworks and guns going off but I don't really remember it after I went to bed. Hubby said it was bad though.

We are fixing Boboli pizza for dinner. Sounded like a good dinner. I'm still trying to finish the breakfast dishes.

Thank you for the warm welcome. Think, liked & didn't thank all posts. xo

Same here Nora. Fireworks. First year in many stayed up, Mr W. sleeping. Watched J-Lo kick it..

Love Pizza, my fave since kid. Made one a long bit back. Have a freebie from speciality place, must use. Now get my head out of that. Homemade soup isn't sounding as tasty.

NoSugar told me yesterday that I have a full calendar year behind me! I never thought of it like that. It was a good thought. I had to go to the grocery store yesterday. Everywhere I looked, there was alcohol. Big bottle of expensive tequila, many different displays of champagne. In my face. And it did bother me. But, the difference is that it bothered me as a passing thought. It didn't last much longer than oh - I want a bottle of champagne, I miss it and I want it and then it immediately flipped to - yeah right, it would NEVER be a glass or even two. It never was and it never will be. And, then the thought was gone.
I never want to feel like that again. I never want to wake up with that sick feeling - physical & mental. That is not who I am now.

Just felt like sharing that. Don't know why but it was a big deal to me standing in the store next to hubby. He didn't even realize all this flashed thru my head. The person in front of us buying that huge bottle, us standing in line right next to a display of champagne, me having that thought and then looking at the size of the champagne bottle and then looking at the magnum of champagne. Just knowing that that I didn't want that.
