Re: One Step at a Time - August 2018

Oh Liz - I am sorry that it wasn't better news. Positive thoughts for a miraculous improvement tonight. :heartbeat:
Liz - please be sure to come here and talk and scream and cry. :hug: We would be next to you if we could but please know that we are surrounding you in spirit. I am glad that you shared about having the drinking thoughts. Great job on powering thru - you know that you don't want to drink. It's just that sometimes your brain tells you that it will help. It won't help and it won't take any of the pain away. It will just add more pain on top of the pain and make you feel worse.
I don't mean that to come across as a lecture but I sort of needed to remember that myself. :love:

Hi all,
So dd1 moved into her apt. yest. Will move more stuff today. It's just move move move all the time. Still putting stuff in place here, it is hard for me when things are in chaos. Found some of my recovery books and notes last night. Put them next to my chair to go over in the mornings. Magnolia tree out back is blooming. Very nice.....Lizann, so sorry about Lucy, but good to organize stuff. I find that very helpful.....Nora, that is the most lovely pic and it made me smile. And what a cute outfit.......Pauly, that was nice about the blind dog. And I would not go to CA right now either....so my SIL is has sent me a case of kippered salmon. They fish all summer and then put the fish up in jars and smoked strips to eat all winter. They live in a small Alaska village. Anyway, she sent it to my old address and I hope it gets here cuz it is really good.....anyway, off to help the kids move....b

Good Morning!

Oh Nora, Savannah is so happy to be sleeping soundly on her beautiful grandma! :heartbeat:LOVE! You look so pretty...love your hair. I can tell you have been AF for a long time...your eyes are big and bright and your lovely face is so well-defined. I admire you on so many levels.

Liz:hug: I am so, so, sorry about Lucy!! I think those are positive signs that her tail is not down as much and she was snoring peacefully next to you. I feel so badly for you and I am SO proud of you for not drinking. Nora is right...drinking will only make your pain worse because of the highly depressant nature of AL. Lean on us, sweetie. We care!1

Pauly-that must have been SO hard for you to give the blind dog back to the shelter but I understand. Would love to see a pic of Winslow. Hint, hint. ;-)

Hi to Dr. Gladys and [MENTION=2634]bird[/MENTION]! SMILE SMILE And [MENTION=18725]NoSugar[/MENTION]...care to pop in and say HELLLOOOOOOOO? ;-)

I told my mom and a few other people to pray for me and keep their fingers crossed for me as I was very anxious about going to Utah. Every time I go to Utah, it seems like something bad happens to me. EVERY SINGLE TIME!!!! Well, everything went well until I was on the way to the airport on Friday and I got rear ended! I could see that the car behind me was following too closely so I even accelerated so that he wouldn't hit me and he did anyway!! THEN, he tries to tell me that his brakes failed. I calmly ripped into him and said, "Don't give me that! You were following too close behind me and I saw you talking to your buddy when your truck slammed into me!" My rental car was damaged, I missed my flight, but fortunately, I got on another flight but I didn't get home until after midnight on Saturday. UGH!! Well, at least, no one was hurt. At least I don't have to go back to Utah until next year, August. LOL.

Off to take my mom to church and brunch. Sending positive vibes to [MENTION=19302]Lizann[/MENTION] today.

Happy AF Sunday to all!
