          Hey there nesters! Checking in from vacation land. This is my first AF vacation ever and so happy to report that there's really no fear here of a relapse. I'm reading Alcohol Lied to Me, what a mind opener. Loving the time on the road, camping, visiting family. 112 days AF, it gets easier folks, trust me!

          Londoner so good to see you staying strong!

          All the best nesters, talk soon. Stay close and stick together!

            So good to see everyone checking in and doing so well!
            Dot Belle, sorry for the clueless hubs....I don't think the average Joe knows what's involved in all this! You got us, tho! We KNOW! So proud of your LONG string of days...is this your record? Remember we always want to be in uncharted waters! Never want to repeat what you've already done (wrote the book on that one, I'm afraid) Let's stay on new territory together!!
            Hugs all, Byrdie

                  good morning nesters

                  Here I am, up at 730 on a Sunday morning and I am just raring to go. When I first got sober I found weekends really difficult and strange, now I just love my sober free time.

                  3J, I was wondering where you were! Good to hear you are having a great time

                  I can, well done. You too dottie, it must be so hard with your hubby drinking like that.

                  Byrdy, please try not to kill your in laws! We'd miss you if you had to do time!

                  Welcome Daya, glad you joined us. Well done on your 30 days! :goodjob:

                  I am going to be out and about all day, happy Sunday nesters old and new. :l

                    Good morning Nesters,

                    just a quick fly by until later-- I'm so happy to have made it through yesterday unscathed! It has proven to be true this time that there aren't 2 terrible days in a row (thanks Byrdie for that-- kept me a bit positive yesterday!!) and now I'm able to be 100% present for my sweet little 8 year old. AND I didn't lose by nearly as much as usual playing memory. Meaning, my memory must be improving! yay--One of the many benefits of AFness!

                    Hello to Available and Bhalo and good to hear from you 3J and I can--and everyone else coming along.
                    see you soon

                      Hi LC, good day here and i managed to start cleaning the garage although i found old photos of the kids so spent more time reminiscing than actually cleaning. oh but it was great to look back at how much they have grown and i did realise that my children hardly wore clothes while growing up lol.

                      did write a long winded message to put on here last night and lost it so i gave up, my patience level to retype it was zero.

                      Work tomorrow and my office manager who i love to hate and it is reciprocated will not be in so a good start to the week, now if only another work colleague called in sick my Monday would be brighter.

                      Hope everyone is doing well and LC we have made it to 3 weeks, woo hoo to us and Dottie also. My son was having a drink today and i did fleetingly think gee i would like a glass but walked away.

                      Hope everyone everywhere is have a great day/night. Will check in later, busy chatting up a guy and boy is it novel to be sober and doing it.

                        Good Sunday morning Nesters!

                        Had lots of rain overnight in my portion of the nest, good sleeping weather
                        Great to hear everyone's reports about moving forward in an AF way. This is something you'll never ever regret, I promise!

                        Wishing a great AF day for one & all.

                          Morning all
                          glad to be here and feels good to not have the hangover cobwebs. Sunday used to mean football and beer, now it means sometimes football and no beer. Actually I do football by listening to the radio, no TV reception, so I can do other stuff. But it is funny, my man cave use to be my pick-up truck and my radio. If I ran out of beer, I was already set to drive somewhere and get more. Damn I was lucky never to get a DUI. What a terrible waste of time! I am so glad to have quit that crap. Time to clean the chimney, fall is coming on!

                          Hope everyone enjoys their day.

                                this almost sounds like one of those Chevy Chase National Lampoon movies!
