    Rise & shine Abbers!

    I'm up & thinking about getting my day started at some point :H

    I have about half a day of work ahead of me - not bad! Think I'll get a pot of mushroom soup going too - yum

    Where have all the AF daily thread slackers been all week? Busy like me I imagine--but not busy drinking!
    So great to see Cowgal again!

    I was up early again today to take my son to b-ball practice (which they didn't have) so maybe I'll get a little more done. I've started transferring video tapes to the computer so I can put them on DVD's for safe storage. What a time consuming process! But fun watching!

    Have a great weekend everyone! :h

      Wood fire & mushroom soup sounds grand Lav! I'm at work eating kiwi fruit - pretty good too

      Hi LVT, sounds like a fun project.

      This Van Gogh exhibition is on my "to do" list in my time off but I just phoned for tickets and it's booked solid for the next week, and they said to call at least a week in advance. I really don't like huge crowds at exhibitions but I guess it's inevitable for this one.

        Morning abbers and absentees!

        Marshy I thought the Mellon logo was an arrow to enter the site and I kept clicking on it. :H:H Maybe if you get a weekday ticket and go at opening it won't be as crowded.

        Cold and gray here too lav. I had a wicked heating bill last month. Geez, I dress warmly in the house. What's next, break out my fingerless gloves? :H

        The Dr. Bernie Seigel telecast last night was very good. What an amazing man! Here's the link to the replay for today if you're interested. Event: January 28 9 PM Eastern

        Work, work, work today. Enjoy yours!

          Happy Friday Abbers! I found this quote on the Daily Recovery Website and I thought, how true and wanted to share this with you.


          An alcoholic spends his life committing suicide on the installment plan.--Laurence Peter
          It would almost be funny, if it wasn't so true. Everyone have a great day. I'm off to see my Dad and stepmom tomorrow for the weekend. Should be and adventure. Thank goodness I'll be doing it sober.

              Hello Abbers! Here and sober, just finishing off a very busy week! I couldn't have done it - not even close - in the drinking days. I am SO grateful for sobriety!

              Yummy I want mushroom soup in my tummy! Hope it turns out good Lav!

              LVT - the video project sounds long!!

              Marshy has your vacation started yet? I hope you are able to get in to see the exhibit while you are off!

              Greenie, thank you for the link. I just listened to a bit of the intro and it sounds very interesting.

              R2C, that quote IS sad but true, IMO. Sister and I were just talking today about her brother who was also an alcoholic - a deeply depressed one. (he committed suicide) We talked about how cunning, baffling and powerful alcohol truly is. It's a depressant that somehow manages to convince us that it will "lift our spirits" and "make us feel better." Like Jack the Ripper someone convincing me that he really just wants to take me out for an ice cream cone or something. Insidious. At any rate, I hope you enjoy your weekend!

              Hi Suni! Good to hear that your AFness is going strong.

              Our regular business has been really really busy this month, thank goodness! In addition, I had a very busy Mary Kay week with 2 training sessions that were terrific, and 3 client facial appointments which were all fun and produced good results I think!! (I love seeing women smiling at themselves and feeling fabulous!! What a fun career!!) Also met with my AA sponsor today to start review of Step 12. NO WAY could I have juggled so many balls - and especially with a good attitude - back in the dark drinking days.

              For anyone struggling, keep hope. This time 3 years ago, and then again after my 2007 relapse, I saw NO reason to live. I really wanted to end it all. My life is so different now. It's not always easy. Every day isn't "perfect." (are any of them "perfect?" I don't think so....) But I am no longer wallowing around in my own darkness trying to figure out if there is any reason to live. And if I can do it, so can you.

              Strength and hope,

              DG

                Ready2, what a good yet creepy quote.
