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

    No worries!

    I managed to be Vino Rock Star last night. Said sarcastically...I have to go grill shortly and it's sad - but I almost don't now how to grill anything it feels like without a drink of something...how DUMB is that?!

    Dip $hit is what I am....
    That popping sound you hear is me attempting to remove my head from my arse. It's been there for years so this may take a while.
    Admitting I need healing. And I am not big enough to do this alone.

      DG - thanks, and I am getting thru an AF day with gratitude (a few hankerings - but seem to be managing to change them to the other side of the coin!).
      Daisy, i know I do that, and I am sure plenty others too, and.......I don't think that those thoughts will vanish any time soon - it is hard to teach an old dog new tricks, and I for one need new tricks:H:H

        Hi Dogwood, Prarie, Free et all...and of course Mr.G.

        By the way Mr. G. how is Melbourne 'wintry?' i thought Australia was hotter than ...Haysh-meal

        Dogwood I'm so glad that gave some perspective. That and having gratitude are my big challenge almost all the time! I'm still with the munchkins. I know Matt saw some crappy stuff early on but hopefully he was young enough to not really be affected. The twins haven't seen much...

        Prairie, just grill a hot dog! Yum

        It's hot hot hot here. The girls had their auditions today: Madison did Good girl by Carrie Underwood. She's performed this before at fairs and expos but today she was in a huge theatre, with kids she knew and that threw her. She was super nervous. But she still did well. Sedona did Down To The River to Pray by Allison Krauss and she completely nailed it!!
        :wd:: I'm so proud
        The girls ended with their performance of ' Sisters' from White Christmas. They were so cute and really did great. I was almost crying it was so emotional watching my babies be so grown up!

        Oddly enough that made me want to drink. Not celebration drink but that emotional drinking I know so well. Extremes are way dangerous for me and lately I am swinging hi and lo sweet chariot...

        Hugs to all,
        :l

          Kradle - that is so cool that your girls did that!!!! And, I can just imagine that 'Sisters' song. Would have loved to have seen it.

          Scottish Lass - again - want to say thank you for steering me to the 'Reaching for the Stars' thread. Helped a lot! I even got myself a calendar today and have marked all my AF days for August. I LOVE looking at all my Green X's.

          Hello everyone!!!! Looks like a great group here. I'm hoping to get to know you all.

            Evening all! I just raided the girls icecream in the freezer - I have not had a big chocolatey cone like that in forever! The carb carvings must be kicking in - oh well!! I am sure it won't make me feel like crap in the am, maybe a tad guilty - but not hungover, or wondering who I fb'd etc!! I will take that any day - hope everyone else is hanging on and feeling gratitude instead of deprevation

              Had to stick with mint chocolate chip this evening! The twins ate all my cookies and cream. :upset:
              Would really have liked your chocolate!

              My carb craving is right behind yours. I'm thinking an English muffin with cream cheese...

                Hi SL.. I'm back onto the day 1 -and trying to the gratitude thing, I am grateful there is no longer any haze in Asia.. Talkin' about fb/ msn, texting etc..Oh God I did that all last weekend to the ex in a horrible alcohol fuelled rage... I can't bear to think about what I wrote.. have deleted it all but it's still in my mind!!
                I'm so grateful I won't be doing that today or tonight!
                Take Care

                  Ha Kradle - I started with fried potates and toast! I NEVER do fried food, but oh my! I think the muffin and cream cheese is probably a better choice....Then I went to the cookie cone - mint chip would have worked too!
                  Hey Patrice, well done for staying around - forget the back to day 1, focus on the strides that you have made, keep going onwards and upwards - don't go back to the beginning, learn from it and keep on trucking!! Look forward to tomorrow....

                    Wish I had some ice cream. :H Oh wait - think there might be a little bit of vanilla bean left.

                    I really love the positive attitude over here.

                        Hey Marhall - I need some more please! Just stay away from that AL aisle:H - that would have been a good excuse in days gone by for me!

                          Hi Patrica:

                          Once, a long time ago in a galaxy far far away I phoned my ex completely wasted and asked him if he could come come over and help me move my bed out of my friends apartment as she was kicking me out. He told me that would be highly unlikely as he was married now ...
                          uch:uch::::shocked::
                          I just wanted to say you are definitely NOT alone in that.
                          I still think of the intense embarrassment and utter humiliation from time to time and though I still feel that pit in my stomach from the memory (which I hopes lessons and lessons as I get further from AL ) at least that kind of thing is now permenantly deleted from my future too.

                          So I'm looking towards diminishing the mind and increasing the gratitude ..so to speak.

                          Congrats on day 1. :goodjob:

                          What's the haze in Asia?

                            Oh Thanks Kradle, I needed to read that... the feelings of remorse are awful aren't they...
                            But today I am trying to erase them from my memory

                            I live in Malaysia and there has been lots of burning of trees in Indonesia and it creates a kind of horrible hazey smoke all over this area...

                              Time Patrice. I think that's our best bet to heal this stuff for ourselves and staying clear of AL of course.

                              Malaysia sounds so exotic! Sorry about the burning, we are loosing about 30 thousand acres of forest to the east of us here in Seattle due to forest fires. Some bridge project up in the mountains gone wrong...seems like every Summer we endure these fires.

                              Sleep well., sweetie. See you tomorrow .

                              Hugs,

                                Hi everyone ready to go to bed. Looks like everyone is doing well. Nora welcome! This is a good thread. Let us continue to focus on our postivite achievements that we have accomplished rather than what we have deviated from for a short time!
