I have to consider letting go of the TV. It really does me no good. Hubby would agree to that.

But I really like my TV...it doesn't trigger me, it just buggs me about the s?x , AL viol?nce, even the "news" ....hmmm.

Every once in awhile there is a really nice story about something nice.

But mostly it cramps my style. hmmm ...let it go, huh? too much money paid for the benefits.

This made me laugh.....:H:H I have this absolute vivid image in my head. That gives a whole new meaning to dumpster diving. I tore them up and put them in the dog poop trash bin, to ensure I won't go diving for them.


I needed to revise this, when I read your story, I could picture myself doing the exact same thing, this is why it made me laugh. I wasn't laughing at you in a mean or spiteful way, and I fear that it came off that way. I am really sorry if I upset you, it was not my intention.

Thank you so much for sharing that story, you made my day. :l that's why I threw them in the poop bin, I knew I couldn't be trusted if there was the slightest chance that I could get them back, and there was no way I was going into the poop.

OMG.....I thought I was the only person who did belly bubbles on their dog, we call it "tummy time" :H

Day two...still to share with my partner that booze can no longer be a choice for me.Tomorrow will be first challenge,get together with friends for dinner this usually involves 6,7,8 drinks but not tonight.A few of the group judge people,I am too raw for their judgement.I have quit before for maybe two three months a time so me not drinking won't be too unusual to them.I need time in my head first to push this one through.This cannot fail, I come first.If a couple of friends have to be dropped from my life sthen so be.I know once I share with partner he will be 110% supportive....Glad I found you guys.

Thanks Kitten 2222, I know it is going to be a long road, but baby steps.Some things that I just have to avoid at the moment to make me stronger.

we call belly bubbles BLOOPERS .... don't know why....but I save them for my boys

Welcome Caz and Kitten.....you guys are in the right place. Go to the tool box to gear yourself up for the ride of a lifetime. Stay close to the nest and listen to our elders (in terms of time in recovery). They really do know what works and what doesn't. This is a wonderful place for all the strong and courageous people (like you) who come here here to get AL out of their lives so they can be truly happy and free ...
