Good morning,
Backy, never seen that.....they still exist.

Ne, 'Gerrus some fags on yer way home pet'.............translates to 'Please get me some cigarettes on the way home from the office, darling'. We don't like to many words.

Watched boxing with my dear auld Dad, Muhammid Ali was Cassius Clay.....just sort of stuck.

Just the kitchen clock, Mr JC's alarm clock and my wee watch ( bought sometime in the last millennium) everything else just changes like magic :fairy:

I'm still looking up words when I'm reading. Gaff and manky. Mhaire (still don't know what you meant, Molly!)

This post is almost incomprehensible:



JC, boxing? Like the kind where people hit each other? I don’t know why that surprises me. Boxing makes me want to cry. I can’t stand to see people hit each other. It’s kind of embarrassing, actually.

Mary, “feck the fags” :congratulatory:

Ktab, what kind of meditation do you do? Is it online? What kind of puppy? How old?



Lots of good thoughts going out to the peeps who mentioned drinking thoughts and the joys of not drinking. I’m actively not thinking about how many days, but apparently the Mr. is keeping track. It’s been 7 weeks and a day, according to him. 50 days! Yay! But even though I don’t want to drink, I’m not craving, I don’t think about or miss it… I still think about it and miss it and wish he would go away for a couple of days. Would I drink? I doubt it. Doesn’t keep me from thinking I would and wishing he would... So, so weird. Addiction is a crazy thing. Very nice to hear I’m not the only one in this boat. Thanks, everyone, for your thoughts.

I've got so many reasons and positive reinforcements for not drinking. People reaching out to me from where I went to rehab. People from the meeting I go to texting and calling for support. It makes me feel like a hypocrite, in a way, since I'm offering hope and light and jeez, I don't always feel that way. Hell, to be honest, I'm not sure I feel that way in general. Life is hard right now. But it's good to be wanted and to be able to share all this stuff that swirls in my head. I'm rambling now, aren't I?

Love this thread and you peeps. Hi Mario! And the others I didn't mention...
xx

Nice to have you here Neva !!!:welcome:
Agree on the boxing BTW - horrible 'sport' !

I'm still looking up words when I'm reading. Gaff and manky. Mhaire (still don't know what you meant, Molly!)

Neva :
Gaff = house (slang)
Manky = dirty , horrible (slang)
Mhaire = the Irish word for Mary

Re: Join the Army Agarinst Alcohol ..............Mad March 2017

Another moment of clarity yesterday.
I was at the drinks cabinet looking for a flower vase - it suddenly dawned on me the thought of a drink didn't even cross my mind. It is full to the brim with wine & spirits. I just don't see it any more.
Now if I could just do what Mario has done and do the same with chocolate & all things sweet ..........
Everything reminds me of chocolate - even the the colour purple. :egad:

Re: Join the Army Agarinst Alcohol ..............Mad March 2017

Hello again, well we are back from our walk and what a stunning beautiful day it is here. That is the 10k steps for today sorted but seeing as is was all on sand and pebbles does that count as 15K? Puppy fed and asleep so its off to the shop for me now, followed by a spot of lunch, maybe a nana nap then its off to attack the garden. Speaking of chocie I just had a couple of squares of whole nut with my coffee, a bar can last me a month, weird isn't it how AL is the only thing that I have a problem with, very happy about that.

We had a lovely warm sunny day yesterday , then last night we had huge thunder storm, so this morning its cloudy with the sun trying to break through.

Re: Join the Army Agarinst Alcohol ..............Mad March 2017

Good morning lovelies and lovely cake makers and lovely people yet to say hello.

Really misty this morning and the sun's just peeping through gonna be a beautiful day.

Jenny finally leaves the hospitality industry after 13 years this Friday....had her on the phone last night having one of her major panic attacks.......but between us she got through it.

She's got a new job to go to...........just temporary while she flings her CV far and wide............in the wee sandwich shop across the road from their cottage.
