Hi abbers. Hope you are all well, it's a rare novelty I start this one. Not ususually home in time. I am off work today and having some me time. I am starting to notice the medium term benefits to Af as opposed to the short term sense of relief. many things in my life shifting as a result of not drinking and all good.
Has anyone got anything planned for valentines?

Morning abbers!

A raven thread! Lets hear what you have planned for me time!

Valentine's.... hummmm.... eat chocolate I reckon.

Lots to do today and I haven't even started to pack. Amazing how much more efficient I am packing sober. Of course since I'm in the little car, packing is self-limiting. :H I still have the anxiety, but I just try to ignore it.

Have a terrific tuesday!

where are you going greenie? moving? i am out of the loop, obviously!

good morning raven, good to hear you are feeling well.

i have a sick kid at home today, so i will stick close to home (as if that's out of the ordinary!!!). i plan on treadmill, vacuuming, walking the dogs (if it isn't too cold!), and a nice dinner.
oh, the simple joys of sobriety.

peace!

have a good day all...

Late check in here! Raven.joy I hope you had a terrific "me" day. I could use one of those myself! Tomorrow might be a "clean me office" day which is probably as close as it's gonna get for awhile!

Greenie, where are you going?

Peace, thank you for the reminder to slow down and appreciate the simple things! Just had a nice dinner (salmon - YUM) with Mr. D. We haven't sat down quietly at the dining room table for several days now. It was high time!

Deter - sorry to hear about the work drama. I don't miss corporate life. Well, it's corporate bosses that I mainly don't miss. Hope tomorrow goes OK for you.

It snowed quite a bit today (but not like the 2 feet dropped on DC last weekend!) but it was just a slow and steady kind of snow fall so it really wasn't bad to get around in it. tonight the wind is supposed to pick up and they are saying "blizzard conditions" in some areas. Not so much with new falling snow but with blowing snow in outlying areas. I hope the power lines all stay up. I've pretty much cleared the calendar and am planning to stay in tomorrow. Have lots to do though! Getting taxes ready to go to the accountant needs to be high on my list.

I'm sure by now that ALL of you are starting to get really excited about Olympic Figure Skating getting underway soon. :H :bling

Grateful to be sober. That's me!
