Good morning Ab Landers!
From later yesterday....
LVT I'm so sorry about your big sis and Cushings. That is such a frightening disease. I will send a little extra hope your way for her to get some relief. Your Easter sounds like it was VERY nice - and much better than the earlier one you describe with the wine and nasty cigar. And nasty hangover. OH those "day time" hangovers after a "nap" were painful, but sadly plentiful around here in my past. No matter how pleasant the thought of a drink might seem sometimes, it's NOT pleasant. It is worth fighting each and every urge to enjoy freedom from that horrible life with AL.
Kirova, happy Palm Sunday and Easter next weekend.
Narilly, I like this:
about drinking thoughts!
Deter, I don't know that I could handle the parties that you do. I stand in awe of your AFness. I bet I would stand in awe of those wings too if I had the chance!!!! I posted a few pictures of the gardening experience from yesterday on the Gardening thread in general.
It was a fine gardening day. And gardening is really easy. If I had only known!! Next fall I need to remember to plant some garlic and see if that works. I'm also investigating sprouts and sprouting as part of my investigation into a slightly more "whole foods" type diet approach although I will not give up my meat!!
Hello to anyone else I might have missed along the way yesterday!
Business is not only slow but today Mr. Doggy has to go see a client who is very upset. There is another vendor involved who is trying to Cover Their Behinds at our expense and it's gotten ugly. We may have to end up taking a big write off in order to save the account if we CAN save the account. I'm so glad that me and Mr. Doggy are both clean and sober now. We would have had a horrid weekend of grumpiness, drunken/high-ness, blaming each other irrationally, etc. in the old days. As it was Mr. Doggy blew off steam Saturday with dog training and some metal detecting, we both got out in the yard yesterday and didn't even talk about it, and I STAYED CALM through the whole thing. Amazing. There was not a thing we could do about the situation over the weekend, and I am so thrilled with *us* for handling this like grown ups! Hopefully Mr. D will be able to smooth it out this morning but if not, we dust off the britches and go on. That's business.
I'm getting ready to join the early crowd at Curves, then catch an AA meeting then back to the office. Mr. Doggy rigged up a grow light for me in the basement so I can start some seeds even though I'm a little late for some like tomatoes. I'm looking forward to trying! So I will be hitting the garden store at some point to buy some seeds and a few supplies. I also want to get some lettuce and a few seeds like that in the garden. WHEE!!!
Have a great day everyone. AFness Rocks.

I hope I don't regret it. One of them is helping the grounds keeper at the cemetary--mowing, weed eating, watering, etc. I think it will be kinda fun--I hope! Now I can tell people I'm working 5 jobs!!!!! (I leave out the part, that some of them only take me an hour or two a day)!
