Then again, I cant stand leggings without something covering the bum, paired with a crop top..Why! - but I know nothing apparently.

[MENTION=22411]IamMary[/MENTION] I've noticed that recently on the young wans about 13 /14 - leggings pulled right up at the waist to reveal bum cheeks and other bits. :egad:
WHAT is THAT about ?

I'll make some noise.........gently though.
Good session at aqua-aerobics, thinking I'm getting the hang of it........even if I'm not very good at it.

[MENTION=18049]RunningCourage[/MENTION].........a happy teacher makes for happy pupils. Glad you espcaped.

[MENTION=22411]IamMary[/MENTION].........I was about four years in when I had a bit of yearning ( it wasn't a bit it was a huge hankering) at one of our BBQ's........big do.....loads of people and I seemed to be the only one not drinking...........surprised I didn't stamp my feet like a toddler and start shouting .......its not fair :sad:.......had a hard hour as far as I could see all the buggers wanted was the drink and not my perfectly buttered buns and homemade potato salad.........I went and laid on the bed and let it pass.........and it does pass.

Molls, love, mind yourself before going mad with the duster and vacuum.

You're right [MENTION=7008]JackieClaire[/MENTION].. I actually worry more because of Startys long stint, and thats a good thing Starty!! I dont ever want to be complaisant. We have a baking thing in work, and one lady did a baileys cream something or other last week,
(on my birthday, so it doubled as my cake), I was a little freaked, mashing it with my fork, picking around the baileys bit..
Bit annoying though, the assumption that everyone is going to be ok with the booze.

For you [MENTION=9094]satz123[/MENTION]

Morning all!

Mary, you are right to be concerned but relapse doesnt happen suddenly (even though we think it does) If I think back to mine, I changed my job from working part time to a full time full on stressful job, I was promoted 3 times in a very short space putting more pressure on me, the co I work in is mainly younger people who like to go out boozing. I then fell away from MWO therefore not focussing on sobriety (this is my only support system). All those things contributed to relapse. Quitting again gets harder and harder as the addict brain gets reinforced. All that was in 2013 and I have tried many times to get sober since. I also dont think I totally accepted I could live a clean sober life while having such a stressful job which again thwarted any long term quits. So yes, keep posting, keep reading and keep mashing your cake to fork around the bailey;s and you will be fine :haha:

Jesus yous early risers / runners / walkers make me feel like a proper sloth. I ain't out of the bed yet ......... but then again this is my weekend.

Re: Join up!! Army against the grog !!! May 2018

Evening, back still giving me......it'll be like when I had my frozen shoulder I'll learn to deal with it and get on with business and then one day it'll be gone.

There are many people these days who are gluten intolerant, nut intolerant, glucose intolerant.......mebbees we shoud say we're alcohol intolerant. I've just seen that they do a dairy free /vegan Baileys...

Re: Join up!! Army against the grog !!! May 2018

they do a dairy free /vegan Baileys...

That is just WRONG .........
Hope the back gets sorted Jacks :hug:

Too right, love.

Hope the back gets sorted Jacks :hug:

Thanks, was/is getting me down. I've got to remember to keep moving that seems to help a lot. Not going to moan anymore and put my positive hat on.

Re: Join up!! Army against the grog !!! May 2018

Would a physio session help [MENTION=7008]JackieClaire[/MENTION]? they could do a bit of needling on it. They could also show you some stretches to help.

Great post [MENTION=22456]starty[/MENTION]. You are probably right, whether its obvious or not, that decision must be premeditated. You sound much stronger now Starts, well done you, flying it now!



Thats some view RC!

Re: Join up!! Army against the grog !!! May 2018

Alcohol intolerant is a great idea. 'It just doesn't agree with me', nothing untrue there.
