    A Safe Place for those of us still drinking to post.

    Chelle, I am thinking of you!!
    What about writing your uncle a letter as a form of closure, you don't need to give it to him, but your message will reach him that you are thinking of him.

    I hope today is a better day for you.

    Stay strong everyone, you can do this!!

        Well, my uncle is still hanging on..
        They've given him as much morphine as they can.
        I know this sounds awful, but part of me wishes he wouldnt 'hang on', because he's in so much pain.
        Was thinking of going over to hospital when my parents/sister and aunt arent there. Even if he's asleep I can still leave letter there for him read.. or if he doesnt get it, then my aunt can read it.

        Nice to "see" you on the thead Guitarista
        The more, the merrier... no hang on, that doesnt sound right... no AL pun intended there... :blush:

          Think I'll buy a pumpkin when i get the food shopping in tonight.
          I know its a bit early, but I love Hallowe'en
          Fred The Skeleton has been in various rooms of my house recently... Tried to scare my son by putting him in his wardrobe.. didnt work, he's wised up to that now... so he tried to get his own back by putting it in my bed, but THAT didnt work cos when I walked in, I saw a 3 foot 'lump' in the bed and his grey hair was sticking out the top... so we both clubbed together to try and scare my fiance by putting Fred in the shower.. and that didnt work either.. lol.
          Need some new material to scare him with this Hallowe'en.

                      Was desperate for a drink so waited until my other half took my son to cadets and popped over to my local store...found out that it has an offer on today,, "3 bottles for a tenner.." and its 13% vol.
                      couldnt resist.
                      Stashed one in the compost bag in utility room, one inside the piano and the third is behind the secret drawer in the office desk.
                      Gawd...
                      My jaw is aching like mad tonight, and apparently, form the news Ive heard from my dad, they're all at my uncles' bedside tonight....

                      And here's me flaming well drinking and going to go to Asda for a bleeding pumpkin...
                      Priorities? right...

                            Hi Everybody-

                            I have been away for a few days as I don't have internet in the house at the moment.

                            I have been more or less modding quite successfully for a few weeks now- that is not my goal- I wish to be AF, but my plan is to mod until the end of this month when I open the shop. I think the complete change of routine will give me that extra help I need to stop completely. (A change of routine finally enabled me to give up smoking after trying for years).

                            I don't know what happened yesterday (Well I do) but I went completely overboard and drank about 10 beers. What happened was I had a bit of a stressful day including going and asking for a bank loan. I had two beers before going to the bank for 'courage'. All went well, I achieved most of what I had to do, but was quite excitable and thought I 'deserved' to have a few drinks after too. Now needless to say, I feel shit today- not so much physically, but mentally.

                            I am just praying I find the strength to get to the end of the month without doing that again.

                            I hope everybody else is doing better.

                              Hi Marbella,
                              Feeling like crap here today too.
                              Got a phone call from a friend I havent seen in a while asking me if I fancied popping to the pub for the afternoon.
                              Cant begin to sa how tempting it would be to sit in a quiet pub all afternoon drinking real ale, but I managed to say no.. and now am cleaning the bedroom.

                              Saturdays are big trigger day here cos my son is over at my parents house for the day and overnight, so it kind of leaves me thinking i can do what i want.

                                Hang in there Chelle, you made the right choice.

                                Marb's I was wondering how the shop was going - do you need me for shop fittings yet? lol Be kind to yourself during this hectic time.
