        Congrats Dottie!! Great job! Stay motivated and spray some Windex on your boss' chair. It causes one helluva rash.

                  Hats and Moons!

                  Hey Byrdie,

                  Rooniferd has also reached 30 days today - and there should be more. Check out rollcall later for the tallly.

                  Veteran, it is wonderful to have a military guy here with your experience. I come from a military family, Dad is a veteran of two wars. Last week, I had an epically bad run and one particularly horrid day. During one call I shared, "well, I've decided at least no one has died." Sometimes that very thought pulls me back to get my stress under control.

                  I hope everyone is better after the storm last night, and that you have power. We would miss you on the forum!!

                        Byrdie - LOVED your pic...you AND the poochie are super cute! YOU deserve an award for keeping up on dispensing all the appropriate awards!

                        I hope all the East Coasters are doing ok...was watching the news last night and every time they mentioned Sandy, my "Sandy Mutt" :dog: started thumping her tail. She can't believe she's so famous!

                        Lav - I hope Stella and the girls are staying dry, I know there's nothing worse than a mad wet hen. Stella is scary enough when she's warm and comfortable. lol

                        RC - Keep the story going, you definitely have serious writing skills! I'm anxiously awaiting the next scene.

                        I hope everyone is staying strong. Remember, there's never a good reason to drink. Be back later to see how everyone is!

                          Happy Day, Nestbuddies!

                          Checking in a little late this morning ? had to take my daughter to a doctor?s appointment.

                          Congratulations to Dottie, Roonie, Kuya, Allan and Matchee for those well-deserved hats, double hats and full moons. The nest is just ?brimming? with pride today! Well done, ladies and gentlemen! :wd:

                          Looks like we need to make room for one more hat and that one will be fitting snugly on the Star?s BIG Head! Yep! Thanks to everyone here, I have made it 30 days Alcohol Free!!!! It even feels good to type those words ? Alcohol Free- as in SOBER, Clear thinking, grateful, rested, proud and ready to go again!

                          I certainly don?t mean to sound boastful, but I just want All the newbies to know how much it is worth staying the course. We all know how tough it is, but with the support of our nest moms (Byrdie, Lav, K9 and Lola) and of one another, it IS POSSIBLE. If I can do it, anyone can do it! Thank you all so much for your support, and-

                          Let?s go for another 30, shall we?

                          :hStar
