Got the date right today

Good morning ODATers! Where is everyone today? Hope you're all enjoying some sunshine. I'll be stuck inside today, mostly, writing job applications (seen 2 jobs I really like the look of, and am well qualified for, hoorah!) and writing a presentation I have to give on Tuesday. But for a "treat" I will give myself a trip to the DIY store :H and go to Starbucks for a nice big well-earned coffee.

Happy Mothering Sunday to all the Mums here :lilflower:

Have a great day everyone

oooooooohhhhhhhhhh starbucks! That does sound like a treat! I love their skinny vanilla lattes. I may have to go get one today as well!

I have had a good weekend - fairly relaxing and AL and nicotine free. It's nice to be up early on a Sunday, well rested and ready to face the day. We didn't do much yesterday so I do have some cleaning and laundry to do today and out to the store but I'm okay with that.

I have to pack as I have my week long conference this week - don't really want to go as I'm not getting along right now with my boss and the thought of being away for a week away from my family with an @#$@#$ that I don't really like isn't very appealing........but whatya gonna do. I know that I won't drink because that would be when I would end up saying something and getting myself into trouble. So I will pack my book and my sleeping meds and retire early each evening. Maybe I'll even hit the pool for some laps.......

Take care everyone - have a great Sunday!!

Love and Hugs,
Uni

Good Day LO and all to follow

Happy Mothering Day to those across the pond.
Good luck with the jobs LO. I am right there with you.
My dog is still wiped out from yesterday. She won't even get up to eat or go for a walk.
I will be off to an AA meeting soon, and then will be working on the job search.
I am trying to scrape up enough money to go and see my Dad in Florida. My Sis said that if I can just get my airfare, she will pay for the hotel, rental car, etc...
I have not seen my Dad for soooo long. I really want to go. We shall see.
Have a Great Sunday All.

Sorry, cross posted Uni
Great to see you. You sound wonderful.

HI Sea,

I hope you are able to scrape that together - a nice holiday away with family is sometimes the best remedy for all that ails you. My sister lives in Floriday and sometimes just getting down for a long weekend is the refresher that I need to start over.

I hope it works out for you!

Hey ODAT people.

Sea - I think that you'll get the money to see your Dad, dunno why I think that but, think positive!

LO - are you going to B&Q? I'm so jealous. We have nothing like it in Singers, they just knock stuff down and build new stuff. Our block was built in the 70's and that's considered ancient.

Uni - I hope your week away is ok and you've packed a good book.

Happy Sunday to all to follow, Bx

Sea, good wishes to you on your job search too. Hope you get the funds together to go see your Dad.
Betty, yep, going to B&Q to get some stuff so I can build a couple of fruit cages - last year the blackbirds stole all my blueberries! And no doubt I will realise that I "need" all sorts of other things too while I'm there...
Uni, good to see you - sounds like you have a good plan for your trip! Couple of good books and an ipod should reduce the risk of saying something you'll regret to your boss. I know what its like to have to bite your tongue rather than say what you feel!

Hi to everyone who follows

Sea - they were just saying on TV this morning that there are some good airfares right now. Try Cheap Flights, Airline Tickets, Cheap Airfare & Discount Travel Deals - Kayak.com.

I'm Day 1... again. But I Know I will be AF today. 2 reasons: MUST get to SPCA since I blew it off yesterday (guess why!).. and 2/ going to meet friend for concert tonight. So I really don't have the Option!!

But I'm also trying to get motivated. Right now, my goal is TWO days in a row. That's pretty pitiful.

Anyway, hope you all have a great Sunday!

Hi, fellow travellers! Just a check in to say, I'm proud of you, you're beautiful, and you deserve to be happy, or at least contented. Don't let anyone or anything (AL) make you think differently. Tell yourself today someone cares about you, and wants you to have a safe, sober, happy day.

ODATERS!!!!

Love the determination here!

Employment ads were a dead end today. I skimmed the obits first just to put things in perspective. Didn't see an employment ad with my name on it but neither was it in the obits. I'll try to make the most of a sunny day and hack away at shrubs (have I been talking about that for 6 months or what?). Having lots of family this weekend so I'm trying to neaten things up.

Have a successful day!

Well....

if not today,then tomorrow for sure I've been away: sometimes I just have to leave. The past 3 days have been an earnest effort to kill myself by drowning in white wine. I'm still here, and much happier as I finally blurted, screamed and most emphatically told DH that I want a divorce. DIVORCE. It's going to be a legal mess. I have given myself a goal, starting tomorrow of caring for myself and doing the things that I need and really like to do. A routine to regain my sanity and my health. You're going be doing a lot of cheerleading here:H:H:H With appreciation to all of you xxx g.
