Good morning Nesters,

I'm still alive, wounded but still kicking.
Just wanted to send thanks to all my loyal friends here - you are helping me thru this crisis, believe me!

When I get seriously stressed I tend to lose my appetite. That's not necessarily a bad thing because I've already lost 4 pounds this week. Your taco talk this week will probably keep me off food for quite some time

Welcome to the newest nestlings! Glad you are here with this crazy group. Just stay close, use a nest belt to keep you safe if you need to - we installed them a while ago

Keep helping each other. The continuous support I've received here is invaluable!
Wishing everyone a terrific AF Thursday in the Nest!
Luv you all,
Lav

Sorry you indulged last night Butterfly....I still do it too....more out of habit now....but we are still here for you.If it was easy to quit, we wouldn't be here, neither would AA or a zillion other places.
Hello Mama Lav.....still thinking of you....

Thanks Chook and Mama
Guess I just fell of the nestlings 'perch' but have been gathered up again by family at MYO
Actually starting to feel better and even pleased with myself for stopping at the 3 glasses - could have been several more after all.

I just did a seat belt check, Lav...they're all good. Plus, somebody brought some butt velcro up here last week!

I left the tacos down in the truck, but I've dragged some complimentary coffee, diet coke, pastries, bagels and other assorted goodies up to the nest. You should have a little something to eat.

Mama, I LOVE the hair...but don't you think the makeup is a bit understated? Maybe you could jazz it up a little? :H

Gonna try the seat belt and the butt velcro to make sure I don't fall off the nestlings perch again and stay in the nest. Pleased supplies have arrived in the nest, now no need to stray!

Ya'll remember 'Fried Green Tomatoes'????

Eau de horse!!! Love it! Can only be topped by Eau de Colon!

And oooooh Sunshine - Now I have to order Fried Green Tomatoes from Netflix - that movie was the best. (And actually I think I still have the book kicking around somewhere. I should try reading it now that I will remember what I had read the night before!)

I am confident that I have (at last) worked out these boards, and that I have successfully navigated my way to the 'Nest'
It has been trial and error (who would believe I'm very accomplished and competent around a computer)

I am day 10 AF.. YEY!!! Never thought it possible, and it's 14 days since my last uncontrolled (more than 1 glass) drink.
Don't worry I don't think for 1/2 a second that I can mod yet, and to be honest I'm not sure that I want to, I'm quite enjoying the feeling that comes with complete sobriety.

The starter pack supplements arrived 2 days ago and I have started taking them today.

Last night was a little tricky, my daughter shared a packed of Roasted 'chick peas' with me add to that a beautiful Melbourne Autumn evening and the only thing missing was a glass... so I took one any filled it with soda water, not very satisfying at the time but I'm happy with that choice now.

I have noticed that I have developed a slight shaking of the hands today that has not been present up to now, would this be normal or related to the supplements...does any one know please.

Thank you in advance for reading and I hope to make room in the nest for myself on a regular basis.

Bye,
Jacqrabbit

Welcome, Jacrabbit! :welcome:

What are the supplements you're taking? Have you taken any over the counter meds for cold or allergies? Any heavily caffeinated drinks?

I had a slight tremor related to my alcohol use, but that dissipated after a week AF.
