    yes, i would love for us to have a family outing....the problem is that neither of us are usually in any condition to drive, plus his licence is currently suspended for a DUI.

          Lovely- "but i am scared that if i go cold turkey before i see my doctor i will die, as one time before i ended up in the ER after having a withdrawal seizure.....i am so scared, but optimistic....andi am never giving up" You already know you can't go cold turkey. Just don't go there. It won't just scare you, it will scare the poop out of all of us! ((HUGS))

          DTD Just about to refresh my first. I get the shakes badly from coffee sometimes. It makes my eyes feel stuck to my forehead. DOES THAT STOP ME? HECK NO!!! I drink probably 6 cups a week. And out of the 4 times I will be WIRED! I like it sometimes. Right now I like it. CHEERS! Here's to your second cup.

            WOW DB Terrific! 80 days and counting! What a terrific, Christmas present! You could to top it with a bow!

            How do you feel? I feel good at 10, I think it's ten. Not as good as I would like to, I am eating more than I would and also making way too much ice cream! lol. I haven't eaten any of the last batch I made yet and did indulge in what I consider garbage food, store bought stuff. Are you experiencing weight loss or gain?

              ANyways I have to run out for a few minutes to take care of something but I will be right back (30 minutes or less).

              Lots of love

                  Okay Lovely

                  TOUGH LOVE TIME-

                  "yes, i would love for us to have a family outing....the problem is that neither of us are usually in any condition to drive, plus his licence is currently suspended for a DUI." It's going to be up to YOU to create the life you want your son to have. From my partial view of your life, your husband will not be helping you get there anytime soon. Is the car, your or his? Whose name is it in?

                  How are you doing so far today? The sun hasn't shown here and it makes it feel like evening, so I thought of drinking. I don't have wine in the house though. But I got on the nordic and did the hoola-hoop and some small weights... jumped around a bit and got silly. The craving went away for now. Anything to distract myself. BUT I also haven't showered so I would have to plan to shower, plan to get out there to go get the wine. That's a lot of work! How do you get your liquor if you are too drunk to go get it?

                  Does anyone have family members that don't hesitate to go get it for you?

                      MyLuck, I know you're on 30 days - congrats and :l:l:l ! You're not getting any jumpy things from me - Byrdie's hats are worth much, much, much more. Patience, she'll pop in soon.

                        Dottie, well done on your 80 days, that's amazing! You should be very proud of yourself! (hope you feel better soon!)

                        My Luck, well done to you on your 30 days too, excellent work!

                        It's been so cold here today. Work was great, the gym was also great and I am off to a meeting in a wee while. I am a busy BH, but I like it that way. Hope everyone is well :l

                          I can't believe the jumpy things copy/pasted. I have tried before and the animation normally disappear. CONGRATS MYLUCK- If I know how to get jumpy things and other animations I would post some more... I just tried to copy/paste one again here and it won't work!

                            Thanks so much everyone. With the exception of my cold I feel really good. I have lost 10 pounds and have not gotten back to the gym full time just yet. Gym is on my to do list. But I have gotten a lot done around the house and am sleeping so much better.
                            This has not been easy. I spend time each day here reading and posting. I truly feel that this has been the difference this time around. I have had many quits and attempts at moderation but determination to be AF and the support of ALL u wonderful/supportive folks has gotten me to this point.
                            It does get better!!!

                              Isty, to get the jumpy thingies, click on Post reply (bottom left) or Go advanced in the Quick reply window. All sorts of lovely smilies there! Unfortunately only some of them jump, but others dance; most of them stand quietly in a corner and behave themselves.
