Join the Army Against Alcohol-September 2017

[RunningCourage]

Goooooood morning camperooos.

It is September. The beginning of Autumn, Fall, leaves are beginning to turn bonnie shades of red, orange, ruby and ochre. A wee bit cooler, with hints of some fresh northern winds. A gentle darkness draws in on either side of the day. Only a little chance of precipitation. A sweet smell lingers in the still, somewhat misty, morning air. Dew lingers on the urban flora.

And most of you are in yer pit.

Understandably. Aint even 6am here in Auld Scotia.

Hope you all have a superb friday :yay:

Good morning and wishing D'Army a fabulous September.

And white rabbits and a pinch and punch and a cake...........



[MENTION=22411]IamMary[/MENTION]...........Mr JC isn't invited but there are about 20 other people there including his girlfriend.

I see on FB for all the wine o'clock, is it too early for gin, its 5 o'clock in the world somewhere posts. And what is this thing about prosecco???

Actually think I done something to my neck with all this flicking

My second piece of cake for breakfast. Just had one on Sunbeam's five year thread. I'm going to be all jacked up like a 5 year old on their birthday. You've been busy JC.!

Evening,
Gawd if it gets any quieter here we'll be meeting in the stationery cupboard.

Lovely news.......the son and heir's girlfriend has been admitted to roll of Solicitors of England and Wales today. Thrilled for her as she's worked fecking hard...........even better news is she's being kept on by the firm that she did her training in.

Evening everyone. Congrats JC, lovely to see the young ones get what they want, even better when they have worked their butt off. It is very quiet, people must be busy. I try and check in every day as it keeps me focused. Too easy to stay away and go back to old ways. Feel so much better now, really don't want to go back, ugh. Lovely catch up at crochet class and about to start a new project so looking forward to that. Night all.

Re: Join the Army Against Alcohol-September 2017

Long weekend here in Canada. Labour day. The traffic today was crazy (nearly double) on the aka highroads for the brits or mainstreets here. Gas prices have jumped from about 1$CAD wednesday to 1.25 and are expected to rise to $1.34 over night (liters). This is the time when people are moving heavy mobile home trailers and huge boats guzzling gas for hundreds of kilometers. So thank goodness I'm staying home and staying sober!
[MENTION=7008]JackieClaire[/MENTION] that cake looks amazing!

Good morning fine citizens of the sober world.

[MENTION=22411]IamMary[/MENTION]............will they marry more than likely they've been together 11 years. I still remember the son and heir sending me a text saying 'Mam, I think I've got a girlfriend' He'd just turned 18 and she was 17. Before that he'd always thought of girls as just friends.

Evening all. Productive day on the crochet front, finished a mermaid tail for hubbys grand niece. Nothing done in the house but I'm happy and much better reason for doing nothing than being hungover!

good on you re. the crochet.. wasn't bad at knitting and always enjoyed it as a pastime - but could never grasp crochet -- I'd love to be able to do them big circle thingy's ;-)
Nice day had today - big long walk on the beach and coffee and cakes for hours in the sun in a lovely little café that backs onto the beach - really enjoyed it -- after a fairly chaotic family week it was nice just to spend time himself and myself! How's everyone doing?

Re: Join the Army Against Alcohol-September 2017

I'd love to be able to crochet. My Granny was still crocheting in her 90s...........mind you one of my most un-favourite things was a toilet roll cover she crocheted one year as Christmas present for everyone. She was crocheted me a dress when I was about 16ish...........I loved that.

Biggest excitement of the day was getting a new charger for my phone and updating it to unlimited minutes talk time.

Talk away JC , nice to have it unlimited. The crochet has become a bit addictive. Love the aspect of learning something new and also the aspect of doing something repetitive which is relaxing. Also there is the social aspect of the classes, we have such a laugh, great ladies, great 😂
