Lavande - well done on 7 years today!!

Do not dwell in the past, do not dream of the future, concentrate the mind on the present moment.

feeling tired and confused over here guys. not about the drinking, this terror theme is really messing with my head.
this is so serious. how can people be so passive?
i keep hearing 'well, you know... you can't just go to war.'
omg,. yes you can! i was relieved to see the US go in and take out that finance guy. and sorry but I just have to believe that they know what they are doing.
i was thinking myself 'pretty amazing that everyone says how these jihadists are motivated be to join because they are unemployed & discriminated against.' there are lots of europeans who are unemployed. none of it makes any sense to me.
it's manhattan all over again. when is this going to stop?
how is it possible to be so understanding? i am disgusted.
and so how do they come up with the funds for all these weapons?
omg. it is just too much.

Good morning Nesters, happy Saturday to all!
I feel proud to say I am 7 years AF today!
That's a good bit of time with no hangovers, no regrets or remorse. I wouldn't trade this feeling for anything! You can all do this too, it's a choice & the best one on my opinion
El, I am sorry you dealing with terror activity so close to home. The events of Sept 11 happened close to me & I remember feeling terribly vulnerable. We really need to keep our thoughts positive at these times, maybe say a few prayers :hug:
Wishing everyone a wonderful AF Easter eve!!

i wasn't in NYC for 911, I was supposed to be there but at the last minute decided to postpone graduate school ( 10 blocks north of site). I did have a lot of friends on site and dealth with all that happened also how it effected everyone living in lower Manhattan.
I have had enough of these idiots to put it bluntly.(AF since 17 May 2014) 2 years 5 months soberComment

:lucky:
Lav, what an accomplishment! Lucky 7!
You are in the stratosphere around here with these numbers! Thanks to your guidance, I will be there in my own time.
Thank you. For EVERYTHING. Helping me stop this madness gave me so much in return. How could I have seen that if not thru your eyes?
To say Im grateful is a disservice to the word. I am miles beyond grateful. You are in the top 5 people of all time on my list of important people. All I can do is walk in your path....so far, so good.
Much love and admiration, BComment

Day 10 for me. Feeling pretty good. Just came off a long stretch of back to back shifts. I'm a nurse in an ICU and I am exhausted. I absolutely can't drink during the day/night before a shift because I cannot be the least bit hungover there or its impossible to do.So it's actually helpful in that respect. Except then on my days and nights off I'd make up for lost time. But so far I'm feeling strong. Congratulations Lavande on 7 years!! That is truly admirable and I respect you so much for it. You are a true inspiration.NEVER UNDERESTIMATE THE POWER OF YOUR OWN DETERMINATION

Happy 7th sober birthday Lav. Many thanks from me for your help and wisdom over the years and boy have i been here a few. Thank you for finally getting it through my thick head that not drinking was doable if i just listened and got on with it and stopped procrastinating. Thank you for being our mother hen here. xxAF free 1st December 2013 - 1st December 2022 - 9 years of freedomComment
