    ODAT - Thursday

    Hi my MWO friends,

    I was doing my masters degree and due to my drinking i withdrawn from the course. I have applied again and i just received the email that the university has accepted me to finish the course.YOUHOU. I am so happy that even 40C degrees outside seems fantastic.

    ODAT

    Love to all of you
    We are your friends. You don't need to be alone again. So come along.

      ODAT - Thursday

      Hi guys

      Aren't the time zone mind boggling? I always feel silly checking in on the previous days thread when I have already started my new day. I did some training with friends last night so my legs are killing me but I have promised my kids and some other friends that I would go the the gym - so that it where I am heading whether my legs like it or not. We finally had a break from our 2 week heatwave this week, but it looks like another hot one today. Only a few more weeks left of the school holidays and due to being sober we have had the best summer and I don't want them to go back, esp as my son is starting his kindy for the first time. I will be so sad.

        OK, Nettie - I am officially "freaked out". It doesn't take much, mind you...!

        Day 11. Actually had a Great day. Beautiful weather... Cool & clear. (Cool being 60's!)

        Went to my first photography meeting. Already learned something. I feel like I'm beginning to come out of my shell (or should I say, "out of my FOG"?)...

        I have to say that it feels good knowing that I can be AF. Even if it's not Forever, at least I know that it's something I can do.

        Have a good night - or day (sheesh!)...

          Really this is weird, it's Wednesday here and all the times on this site are confusing to me, just can not figure it out, but I did the same thing last week and started the daily thread when it was still the day before my time, so let's see does that make me day 20 (Wed) or BONUS:you wish:day 21 (Thursday) HUMMMMM?????

          Just finally got my newly ready bottle of Ginger - Ale opened without it spraying all-over-the-place. (And I did really chill it first) That is the most difficult thing about the ginger -ale. Well I opened it s l o w l y...took me about 1/2 hour, just patiently listening to the fizz. And it is still fizzy and yummy.

          I shared this on another post, but wanted to again, since I was a 24/7 drinker, I have replaced the wine or vodca at bedside 3 am with a nice sweet crisp Apple. Yum. I just wake up and crunch my way back to sleep. A little sugar hit, as my body is soooo used to it, hey I have been drinking for 35 years. I can not believe I am ok, and feel good and look good (Well, Oceana!). Thank the spirits that be. (My alcoholic grandfather lived to 99 years).

          I know Captain you are having a rough time without your daughter and I agree with Sunshine you must arrange a schedule to see her, she must miss you very, very much. On another note, although the boat is small, I love sleeping on boats, and living aboard. You cut a romantic figure, go figure!

          So, as you know, my road it is difficult, but I am clear and focused. It's the middle of the night when the real monsters come out:alf:

          I have tried not to use moving ding bats but this one I could not resisit!

                Back again... STILL Thursday (lol!).

                Meant to say - I guess I've been out of the loop, Capt. I didn't even know you were having marital problems. I'm sorry to hear that. I hope you can see your dear daughter soon and Often!!

                Day 12. Feeling pretty good - except I Still get up WAY too early! (Usually about 4:30-5:00) Maybe the quality of my sleep is better so I don't need as much??

                ...I remember when I didn't think I could make it past Day 1!! Just shows to go ya!

                Hope you all have a Great Thursday (for however long it lasts...)!

                  Happy days are here again!

                  Today is the new day 5, or if counting 21/25. I am looking forward to another good day where I stay strong.

                  Savon--I hear you about the sleeping--I have been getting up at 4:30 or 5:00 also--not restless, just refreshed. I feel like I have lots more energy also.

                  Still a lot of arguments and stress regarding committing Mommie Dearest. Siblings are divided, my father is paralyzed with fear and guilt. meanwhile, we are all stressed, arguing, , choosing sides. sister still in denial and enabling. saw my therapist yeserday so that helped.

                  Started one of the three new grad classes yesterday, and heading off to work today. Too bad I can't log on during the day, but Big Brother is watching and reading, so I will see you all tonight.

                          Good Morning ODATers. It is early morning on Thursday, Ohio (USA) time. I'm tired of winter already! Hope to have an AF day and hope the same for all of you!

                            Hi guys

                            I think that I am on day 18, I am starting to lose track of the days which is good because I am not really thinking about AL. I did have a moment today, hanging out the washing of all things. The weather is stinking hot, everyone around me is going stir-crazy but I am so happy still. Almost as if not drinking has released some happy hormone in me. Blanchie - I guess you could call my feelings giddy, but good giddy. I am off to bed now.

                            Congrats to everyone for completing their AF days and wishing a happy day to those whose day is just beginning.

                              Hey ODATers,

                              Well, had a nice AF day yesterday and a nice WF (water-filled) day! Sounds like there's lots of you staying AF and NF, that's awesome! I love how the thread started, talk about making me think twice! I was off at a business meeting for 7 am and wasn't able to sign on earlier, now I wish I had!

                              I'm so happy for all of you guys! Captn, I'm feeling better today, I hope you are, too. :l

                                Well - it's thursday morning here and it's almost friday (or is already) in NZ. The time zones are mind boggling. I flew to Australia a couple years ago, and couldn't sleep on the plane because my mind was constantly trying to undo the riddle of what time it was at home, in Hawaii, in Australia and right now, on the plane. I think it finally became clear at one point, then I lost it all over again. I have a friend in NZ who sometimes calls me at work, and it's something like 7am for him, but only 4pm here the day before. Ah, this great big beautiful world we live in.

                                I also am on day 5 of my short term goal, 13AF/15 for January. Yes!!! Doing ok, but a bit over tired in the evenings. And it was really cold here last night -32C or something, and I had to turn the heat up as I was not feeling great and couldn't warm up. I hate it when that furnace roars and roars. We use so much energy up here, just trying to stay warm in our houses!!! I turn the heat way down during the day when we are all out at work and school, and it is pretty darn cool in there when we get back home at the end of the day. Poor pets!!! Hey - they have fur coats!

                                Ok - A great thursday (or friday) to all you happy ODATers!
