Re: Join the Army Against Alcohol-November 2017

Thanksgiving day here in the states, so much to be grateful for, Sobriety at the top of the list. Thanks for the card you sent over JC!
No worries on missing me, sweetpea, no offense taken, now or ever.
Taking time today to find gratitude.

Re: Join the Army Against Alcohol-November 2017

Morning - just feeling overwhelmed with so many in the house tbh - and then I feel ungrateful when I read problems like peapie and the job - please just bear with me dipping in and out xxxx

I feel the same Molls.:hug:
Sorry for being MIA - overwhelming here too ........but grateful to be coming to the other side of some of it.

Poor Sweetiepie - maybe you really do need to a) re access your job or b) tell yer wan strongly to back off and let you do your job or you will stop treating her Mam and call security or C) tell her to fuck off..

There HAS to be another avenue for you with your qualifications?
What about a nice nursing job in a private clinic ?
Just lots of floaty rich people floating in to get botox and tummy tucks with LV holdalls ? Their only worry what's on the menu ?

Young Satz arrived home from the 'quare place' this eve.
Says he has learned SO much and does seem so calm and 'in the zone'.
Remains to be seen how he'll cope with 'real' life again.

Picked up Norovirus (Winter vomiting bug ) from working in the nursing home. Out of work last 3 days. Not nice.
The bitch receptionist says SHE has never picked up anything because SHE is so careful.
The truth is she's a lazy stuck-up cow who will not lift a finger when residents need help and no carers are about. Or let them use the phone to ring family etc n case she catches something . GGGGRRRRR.

Re: Join the Army Against Alcohol-November 2017

Morning,
Be a darling, Molls and gerrus a small semi-skimmed milk and some bread buns while you're there . I can't be bothered to go out. IKEA has left me zorsted and its fecking freezing.

Well the empty nest we were having at Christmas has now become 5 people and 2 dogs all in. Its weird that in Christmas past Mr JC and I used to be able to cook a Christmas dinner for 11/12 people and have it on the table for half one...........while we where both well into to the wine........in fact really just topping up from Christmas Eve and now I'm sober they're lucky to be fed by 3pm. We're a tad more relaxed these days.

Satz, he's got his very own network to lean on and a mass of learning done, although in the first year I found something new about sobriety just about everyday.........I'd lay bets that he finds Christmas just lovely.

Re: Join the Army Against Alcohol-November 2017

Just popping in to say nighty night lovelies.
One of those days where I've run round like a loon and got very little done but its left me zorsted.

Re: Join the Army Against Alcohol-November 2017

Hmmm.. what does Mr Rustop think about this, or are you going to hide him in the wardrobe :rotlf:

Didnt really get into the Black friday thing. Felt a bit overwhelmed, where do I start!! unprepared is a better word.

Ha ha. For all future reference, any time I mention boyfriends I’m referring to my daughters not mine. Mithered with them at the moment I am. Off to a Christmas crochet workshop today so that will cheer me up. We will all make Christmas stuff and have afternoon tea and natter. I have such a laugh at crochet class on Fridays, it’s a tonic. Looking forward to today. Hope you all have a great Saturday.
