Hi MM!
I figured your avatar was Misty...how sweet!
My two four-legged kids are BOTH going to the vet tomorrow...one has an ear infection and one has a butt problem...so it's both ends!! One is 8 and one is 10, so I gotta watch over them in their golden years!

Thanks waggoneer and Trapped. I know theres alot going on and its very stressful here, but Its been going on for 4 years and I cant seem to change that situation now. All I can do is fight for me, and concentrate on my life AF. My constant drinking started not long after my brother moved in and became a routine of work, drink, work drink, and eat sometimes. Only time I didnt drink was when I went to visit my sis and her husband. I was at peace there and had fun. My goal is someday to move there to be closer, even tho shes only 2 hours away, its a world away from here. Of course theres alot more to my story, but I cant go into it all right now. Its depressing thinking about the last few years and what I became. Im sure it will come out here a bit at a time for now.I just want to focus on how grateful I am for being able to quit the AL, and Trapped, yes, it is still ODAT for me..I take nothing for granted..Thanks to all again

Have been working 10-12 hour days lately, but I dont mind, at least I get home tired and get good sleep. Again thanks to all who posted here. K9, hows the doggies doin? Well tommorow is day 30 AF for me. So far, no major cravings, just those brief thoughts of what it would be like to relax with a glass of wine, but I dismiss the thoughts immediately. Off to bed soon, and will check back soon.

Hi Misty,

Great going on your af time! Keep it going. It just get's better and better. But we must be absolutely ruthless with our sobriety, especially in the earlier day's. We must keep an even keel, and avoid conflict until we're stronger in our sobriety.

Best wishes, G-bloke.

Hello mistysmoma

All I can say is wow, you are a strong lady with a cute doggy, keep up the good work, and don't let the bastard grind you down, although sounds like your attitude at the moment will keep you clean for life. Whatever your doing keep doing it.

And Congrats on 30 days plus, I will look forward to checking back and seeing you AF for months/years/decades/life
