    An older drunk back on day one. Who's with me?

    Hi Everyone:

    I know that I haven't been here in a bit and I should be commenting on everyone's hard work but I just wanted to say that tonight I had to deal with the biggest load of shit from this F*%**#ING idiot woman who has me hostage with my kids and their music performance classes and all I could think of was getting the hell out of there and going to Albertsons for a bottle of Rum and mixing a very large Tonic and Lime.......

    But I fricken Didn't!! I didn't I didn't I didn't !!! :wow:
    I just had to say that and tell somebody...

    Not sure what it all means but...I'm Okay for now. Having Peppermint tea now and listening to the twins perform Sisters from White Christmas..

      Morning folks,

      Cupajo?

      LillyE - gonna check out that thread of Turnagains. Thanks for the heads up on it.

      Kradle - hey, that is the sort of situation that would have me head straight to the bar, for a couple of jars before heading to the off license for wine... So, :woot: to Kradle for two fingers up to the rum (and the idiot woman who had you and your kids hostage!).

      Mr G: WHAT"S THE NEW ON THE :h FRONT? WE ALL WANNA KNOW (Yes, even us guys...)

      Have a good day folks

        Kradle - It is just our nature to want to pour alcohol on any problem that has us stressed. That's how we deal with what "normal people" deal with in other ways. We're trying to learn how they deal with stress. Awesome that you didn't drink! You ranted to your AF friends! Good for you!

          Hello to all. I'm Juja, posted on G's thread at the beginning, but went AWOL after too many failures, and jealousy at so many successes. There, I said it. Pathetic and sorry piece of humanity, aren't I?

          I've been reading various threads, have posted on one other, and decided I'd come back to the G-man's, too. This thread held me and my friends in it's loving arms for some time, so I'll join you again.

          So, I'm back, with 6 days AF behind me, a better attitude, and working toward an AF future.

          Kradle>Your post prompted me to post. I have a stressful, family weekend beginning tomorrow, and will try not to drink, or go ballistic, as I deal with controlling, weird family members. Oddly enough, I'm considered the most sane.:H So, I understand your frustration with your husband's ex.

          I've read many of your posts about the situation. I don't know how folks deal with crazy ex's. I don't understand why they don't see how their behavior affects the child, which should be the no. 1 priority. Hang loose, and scream here. I can listen to all screams of frustration.

          Hello, my dearest G. I know you're away, and getting lots of lurvve, I'm sure. You won't be young and hot forever, so go for it. May you never get arthritis in your fingers: the geetar and birds would suffer greatly.:lipstick:

          A virtual hug to all.:l

                  Jeez, Audrey, why do we do that? Believe me when I say I understand completely!

                  I'm on Day 8, still exceeding tired (which could be vacation hangover), and foggy. I do believe some of it is AL recovery. I'm hoping next week will bring clarity once I GET THROUGH THIS STRESSFUL WEEKEND AF (she says to herself in a very firm voice).

                  Hi Lily, RC, DGB, SL and Kradle, et al. Have a safe, sober weekend, dearies.:l:l

                    Hey Juja...I didn't meet you before, but happy you are back. Good to see Mr. G this morning as well. He has been AWOL for a couple days. This thread gets slow when you are gone. We miss you!

                            Hi, RC, and thank you for saying hello. It's the little things that mean the most.

                            Everyone>I'm worried about SunnyG. I hope she's okay and returns to her thread.

                            Day 9 here. I woke up with a headache, assumed I drank too much last night, and remembered I didn't drink a damn thing. I couldn't quite grasp the notion. Still can't.

                            Have a healthy, relaxing, satisfying Saturday night, all.

                              Hi Juja.... Good to "see" you back. I met you over on Enough!'s thread and then someone else's short-lived thread; can't remember which one it was. I wonder how Enough! is doing?
                              Anyway, congrats on Day 9! I'm on Day 1 - again.... I did so well for the first half of this year - 6 months AF - but since then, I get to about Day 13 and I blow it. Byrdie's right about that 13th day. Be vigilant!

                                Hi Caper!

                                Wow - so you did 6months AF and then off the wagon? I'm interested to know what made you have a drink again 6 months. I'm on day 34 here.... and the brain cravings (i.e. the voice in the head questioning whether to have a drink or not) have not subsided.

                                Juja - "I couldn't quite grasp the notion" - that had me in giggles!
