I know some of U guys. Let me tell U about me. Bad. Bad Bad
Lost in a sea of foolishness. If I were someone else I'd cry for me. But it was my own doing. Some of U may remember me sober. I don't deserve your help anymore

I am too new to know you, but I can say this..... All of us, no matter what we do, or how awful those things seem to others, we're born the same. We were all innocent, and then life happened.

The worst deserve the most forgiveness because no one would CHOOSE this hell.

Welcome back and get back on the horse as soon as you are able. :l

:colorwelcome:Long Road...I was here before but apparently not at the same time. Just know, it doesn't matter what garbage you came here with....you are in good company. We all have God awful stories to tell about our days in the bottle. Since you were here before, you know this is a good place for you to be. Hang with us.

Hey Long Road we've never met, but just wanted to reiterate what another member here said about somebody else who feel off the wagon - to offer you unconditional acceptance without recrimination, whether you fall off the wagon or not. I think the most important thing is that you have taken the decision to come back onto these boards, back into the fold of this community.

Dogwood - same goes for you! Good to *meet* you as it were! Hope your day today feels damn good, fresh and filled with opportunity.

Mr G...

Thank you for asking about recovering from the run. It did take a few days, and was slightly hampered by a wee niggling cold, but legs and chest are feeling better by the day.

Putting it out there, but not promising I'm going to do something so silly as... running the mighty Hadrian's Wall next year... 69miles across, coast to coast from one side of the UK to the other... Like i say, silly idea... just a thought... :eeks:

Hope your well, and that the music making juices are flowing fast and free

Greetings y'all,

Good to see you again Long road. It is a long road for many of us to be sure. Stick around buddy.

Hi DB, KY, and Des!

Hi RC. Hadrians wall sounds like a real blast! Glad you seemed to have pulled up okay. Lots of music making here to be sure.

Have a great week everyone. G.

Very quick check in, was away camping for weekend, girls had horses - 8 horses, 11 teens, four grandparents and 5 parents - lot of work, but so much fun. Had a lovely campfire and sing songs, accompanied by some AL - and sadly I joined in. I really do have to commit to my 30 days AF and need to get this done, I know I would feel so much better today if i had not joined in.
got to get my head in the game!!!

:hello:Hey Scottish Lass, long time no speak! I've had a rough couple months, but I'm back in. It's good to see so many of the same and to see so many newbies! I'm on Day 3....I'm so not alone here. It feels like coming home!

Greetings everyone.

Hi Lassie. Get yer game on.

Long road, how are you going there?

3 days of work ahead, then a 4 day long weekend of music, spinach, and maybe luuuuurve. Who knows?!

Wishing everyone a safe, sober, and happy week. Yo! :h

Edit: x-post. Hiya DB. Congratulations on 3 days AF! You are laying your foundations to a treasure packed life. :goodjob:

Hi Dogwood - so well done for coming back, as long as we keep coming back, we stand a chance to keep winning the battle!
G - great question - how are you going there? And it is one I am obviously not good at answering. I have rid home of all AL, i have a good stash of NA drinks. I will not shop after noon. I am on call this weekend, so that makes it easier to have an excuse. Can I kill my ex, that could help - yup, but would prefer to be AF in my own home instead of the big house, so will have to work that problem out another way.
Thanks for the challenge G and for calling me out - it was just what I need!
I will keep working on this.
Dogwood, you have a lead, but i can join you on this...

Eh, what's this about G? What gossip did I miss in my absence. Tell, tell, tell!!

Just checking in to say hi. As I've posted elsewhere I relapsed recently and have been struggling to get my mojo back. I think I'm finally making progress, thanks in large part to some wise counsel from wonderful people here. (Turnagain's post on today's AF Daily Thread is just brilliant.)

How's everyone doing? I hope your days have been happily AF, filled with spinach and cornbread and of course LURVE.

Me, not so much on the lurve front but I've been making lots of ice cream with my new ice cream maker. Tastes like love.

Also, super post on Spiritual River today. Really helped kick some sense into my booze-addled brain.
