    ODAT - SUNDAY

    ODATERS!!!!!

    Good morning!! Naw, I'm not really up at 4AM. I fell asleep on the couch and am making my way to bed. Still in jeans, though. Lovely to be in the clothes I wore to the party and be clear headed and sober and not hungover.

    Yesterday I did mega work outside and it's great to admire the fruits of my labor. I don't get that satisfaction from spending hours and all I can see is a clean spot on my desk. :H

    Have a good one today and be kind to yourself (and others, but mostly yourself )

    Hi Greenie & all to come!

    I, too, woke up feeling fresh... having not drunk anything yesterday. I REALLY need to put together some AF days.

    Another nice day here in FL - I'm planning to soon be out & about! As we all know, keeping busy is the KEY.

    Hope all have a great day!!

      Hello all ODATers
      Well the Christmas festivities are over. It was all very nice. Most of my family worked through the holiday, but we made time to be together. I opened the last of the presents with my sister last night. My daughter and her friends were the only ones who consumed any AL. I am looking forward to a fresh start this new year. I really want to get off the smokes and pump up the exercise. I have Chantix and will be starting it soon. I hope everyone had a nice holiday. I am wishing you all strength for NY's eve. I will be working, so No prob.

          Hi green, savvy, sea, and 1MC,

          Yesterday was a horrible day. I spent Christmas with my "drinking" family. Have you seen Four Christmas's? We arrived at parents, 2 and half hours away and my brother arrived at the same time. My one year old nephew was crying b/c he was hungry. My 4 year old nephew was throwing a tantrum. My brother said "I've got to have a beer". My mom said "I've got to have some wine!" My husband headed straight to the bedroom with a migraine. My sister in law with strep throat and they forgot the baby formula. I said "I'll go get some!" My sis said "I need some club soda". I went to the drug store and found the formula thinking to myself, I NEED a drink, this place is freekin NUTS. Now, for the club soda. Well, they sell AL at the drug stores in my parents home town. Couldn't find the damn soda, so I'm combing the isles with the wine, all kinds, merlot, cabs, chardonnay, all my favs, then all the vodka, and i'm like , crap! where is that soda.... getting more and more irritable. Finally, found the soda, went to the checkout, was paying for it..... then asked the clerk to throw in a pack of virginia slims menthol.... and I don't smoke. Went to the car, took 2 calms forte, smoked a cigarette, and took some deep breaths. Sprayed some cologne I keep in the car (used to cover AL smell) went in the house, no one is crying anymore, everyone calm drinking their wine, and fixed myself a cranberry juice and tonic in a wine glass and let my calms forte kick in and I was fine.

          I made it another AF day and Christmas is officially OVER!!! I am like wip, no major triggers with new years, staying home and looking forward to no more Christmas STUFF!!!!

          Good luck to all in meeting your goals today! Hugs.

            greenie, I'd give anything to see a clean spot on my desk. I keep trying, though!
            Savvy you sound great! Hey sea!
            I hope you feel better 1more...
            Bridget...awesome! I don't know what I'd do if they sold wine in the drug stores here. Ugh.

            It's going to be in the 50's today! The 2+ feet of snow is melting and it looks like March or April around here. My dog thinks it's spring and keeps chasing this red squirrel in the back yard. I hope he gets the bastard, that squirrel has wrecked the inside of our shed. So warm my HB was able to caulk the outside of some windows so it won't be so cold in here when it gets below zero again. Well, we hope the caulking will help.

            Feeling great, sober, no hangovers, just ate a bagel with salmon cream cheese and chugged the All One with some additional supps.

            Football day for me today and I'm working on a gooberly awesome marketing idea for my store. I'm psyched! It's fun liking work again and not hating it.

            Take care, :l

                Hi guys,

                I'm back from my friends funeral and with the festivities over I will hopefully start to feel normal again. Last week was just a blur - each day seemed to run into the other. But I'm hoping this week will be better.

                I'm still sick so I'm thinking now that this is a sinus infection so off to the doctor tomorrow to get some medication. 4 weeks of not being able to breath and going through a box of kleenex an hour is enough for me! Hoping that will help to clear my head and get me feeling back to normal again which is what I really need.

                Now that I'm back I'll be back on ODAT daily - I missed you guys! Glad to hear everyone is doing so well and had good Christmas's. See you all in cyber world tomorrow!

                love you guys,
