    Things I CAN'T Do

    Physically I can NOT do the following things:

    -Lift 1,000 pounds
    -Fly
    -Run 150 miles per hour
    -Drink Alcohol
    -Grow an extra arm
    -Touch my elbow with my tongue

    Never gave much thought to any of it before...except one (guess which one). Now that I've accepted my limitations, it's smooth sailing.

    Does anyone really stay up all night depressed because they can't lick their elbow?

    Hugs

    Yep, (I tried it) Can't do it either! LOL
    Every day is a day to start over and remember that I am powerless over my addiction. I will no longer give the BEAST any power over me - he can go straight to hell.

      Good point K9, not drinking alcohol can be added to all the things we can't do - and that - is well, how it is!

        I came "close" to being able to touch my elbow with my tongue but no dice.

        I do love the analogy.

        Thank you!!

          The only way I can get my elbow licked is to get someone else to do it.

          I'll leave the AL to someone else as well.

              Good post K9Lover.
              Ethanol is a toxic chemical, why would I drink it?

                          You know, I think once we just accept that we cannot drink alcohol, life just gets so much easier. When I look at a glass of wine, I HAVE to think of it as a poison. Well, it really IS a poison, literally. I also have to look at it and think that just because "some" people can handle it and not have a problem, I am not one of those types of people.

                          I guess we could say we are "allergic" to alcohol! I like that!
