ODAT - Saturday April 5

[Croft]

Hey, I just realized I am up late enough to do the ODAT post. I mean I am up early enough to do the ODAT post.

I still have this April AF goal going on. Whining about it all the way, but I am AF.

I hope everyone has a great Saturday, whatever your plans!!!!

Bessie - I hope you get to sit in a chair and do nothing for a bit today. I get tired just reading your posts.

Hi Croft and everyone else to come

Hope you all have a great Saturday. I have a busy day planned as we did a big clean out and we now have to fill the skip - very fulfilling, seeing all that junk disappear. Day 6 and feeling good.

Have a good week-end everyone.

Hahahahahaha! Sob! Sit in chair? For more than 5 minutes? Without emailing/reading mail/writing lists of jobs? You're 'avin' a larf aren't you?! :H:H:H

I've got 3 hours and 40 minutes before my first guests - only a bathroom to clean, a few floors to mop, a load of stuff to move out and some paint touch up to do. THEN I get to sit down..... but only until it is time to feed the animals..!! But tonight I will take time off. And tomorrow I will take it easy. I have worked so hard this last month and particularly this last week, that I have surprised even myself. But time to ramp it down a bit - can't be good thrashing your personal engine this hard.

On the al side, I have been too busy to focus much but then too tired to drink too much. One of the upsides of not being so busy (hopefully!) is that I will have the mental energy to spend on tackling Al.

Rustop - I have skip envy!! My husband is too tight to pay for a skip so we have had to bag all our stuff up and slowly put it in the bins and take it to the recycling centre. Would have been so much easier to just pay and chuck!

Croft! You keep that April AF going you hear?! We need to to lead the way (no pressure then!!) :H

Love to all to come.

Bessie, good luck with your first holiday guests!!! I'm sure it will be a huge hit; a lovely part of the country and you've worked so hard, I'm sure it will all pay off for you. When it all settles down a bit make sure you give yourself some "me" time and TLC.....think you've earned it!!

Good morning all!
Bessie, I want your energy. Actually, maybe I don't. I'd have to do something with it.

Croft, you go girl! You can do it.
Hang in there everyone. Its worth it!

Good Morning my ODAT friends,

I am in a bit of a hurry. Lots to do myself today and have Li'l Bit over since her mama can't stop drinking and her new daddy is mad as a wet hen. Figured little one could 'hang' with Granny this weekend.

However, Bessie, so glad things are starting to wind down.

Croft, so sorry about the feelings and noting the no sleep thing happening. It does to everyone, truly. Once you get through to day 10, it is MUCH easier. I seldom make recommendations but I do think you should truly try for 30 days AF. The book recommends it and I know from my past 30 days AF that it does give a different perspective on drinking. Truly. Unfortunately, I f'd that up and starting over again myself.

You can decide after 30 days if you want to mod and I truly believe modding is much easier after you have taken a break.

Whatever you decide, just make sure you make it for the right decision. What is best for you, Croft. We all know the feelings you are talking about. AL is one tough sucker to deal with, deal with Croft and not AL. If that makes any sense?

Everyone else, have a wonderful weekend. Mine will be busy with grandkids and I can't ask for more than that right now. They are exhausting but such a joy.

Love,
Cindi
