    ODAT Friday

    Yes it's yet another Friday - golly they come around quick at the moment. The sun is shining today but still very cold. Snow is slowly disappearing.

    Had lovely walk earlier with little foster child who has a TD Day today so no school for him - came back with very cold toes though!

    Hope you're all hitting those targets and remembering that it has to be one day at a time cos we can't do anything about what's past or what's to come only the here and now.

    Have a good one.

    ODAT Friday

    Good Morning MM and all to come. Pretty morning here in Florida where I am still visiting. But pretty soon I will go back home to Washington DC (actually Alexandria, Virginia which is a stones throw). I am happy that I am not drinking. It gives me a fighting chance to face the world and wonderful not to wake up with shame, fear and anxieties. I hope that all of you achieve your goals and that you find a sense of peace we all search for. Have a great day !!!

      hello everybody! hope everybody is ok,

      3 days AF and feeling really pleased with myself, lovely not to wake up with an awful hangover, friday is a challenge but its my weekend of late shifts at work so theres no chance of me cracking and starting drinking because i simply cant. its funny how when i know theres no way i can have a drink it doesnt bother me (i'm woring until 2am) its when ive got too much time on my hands thats the problem. i found that planning my days constructivley and keeping busy really helps me.

      i hope everybody has a great day and keep smiling

              The journey is the goal. As long as you're fighting the good fight and you're not giving up on giving up, you're winning. It's not about how often you get knocked down, it's about how often you get up again. Sobriety the goal for sure. But striving to get to that goal is what it's about. Not getting there. Because the journey never ends. The journey is the goal.

                Probably shouldn't be posting - since I can't seem to do even ONE day. It's been a very bad week, and I'm feeling Weak. I'm sure this, too, shall pass & I'll get back with the program.

                Glad to see all of you are doing well! I love to see your Success!!

                      Still hanging in there. Been really busy with the kids and exercise. Don't know how many AL free days so far which is probably good because I am not even thinking about AL at all. I must look at my drink tracker to find out.

                      Think positive Savon, it will make tomorrow easier to be AL free. Saying a big hello to everyone and I must try to catch up on the news this weekend.

                            Hey MM, how wonderful you have a foster child. I didn't know that.

                            Matt, you put it so well. "I am happy that I am not drinking. It gives me a fighting chance to face the world and wonderful not to wake up with shame, fear and anxieties." Thank you for that!

                            Shelley, me too, the busier, the better.

                            Gyco, our family gatherings are the same. It would be nice to see ONE w/o AL. Won't happen, though.

                            Blanchie! I've got my treadmill ready to go, too. Exercise has been helping me so much lately, go for it!

                            Hey johnny, nice to see you again!

                            Savvy, we always want you to post. Don't take away the AF days you have put in! Listen to everyone here. No matter what, we want you to post! :l

                            Greenie, you are such a great example for me! That's the attitude I'm working on! You go girl! :h

                            Ezzy, that's great! I had to look at my calendar to count, too. I don't really like counting, though, for some reason or other. I sort of like the mystery. Weird, I know.

                            Well, let's knock this Friday the 13th off, huh? The sun's doing it's best to peep out here. A bit cold but at least the rain has stopped for now so it might save on some flooding.

                            Take care,

                              Hi all ODAT'rs

                              Snow is melting here as well and the temperatures have gone up. Had forgotten it was Friday 13th, hope the only one its unlucky for is Al. Am chauffering daughter tonight so thats me taken care of. Its true when we know we cant drink its not an issue.

                              Keep posting Savon, I know from experience that when I stayed away from these boards I was just giving myself permission to keep on drinking. It helps to hear the good and the bad about other peoples struggles. I find once I manage to get a few days it really helps and the only way you can do that is ODAT.

                              Have a great week-end everyone.
