    monday 24 May af

    morning all - busy busy weekend so didn't get on here at all - huge congrats to DG - posted on other thread but needs saying again :.

    We won on Saturday and it was a really great day - out from midday to midnight. Yesterday I went to the gym,and went to watch skate practice and then out for dinner with friends. I have booked myself a gym induction to get a routine on the go. I need focus at the gym to progress.I may end the day with a swim/steam sauna.

    I am still feeling a bit jittery and I realise that I haven't been writing as many thoughts down as I should have ready for tomorrow's CBT session.Trying to focus on today and not stress about what day to day housework may not be getting done/job future.

    I am meeting a friend for coffee and a cheap healthy lunch today and doing some window shopping and need to buy some more fruit/veg. Maybe will buy a pair of wedge heels to reward myself for sticking to my goals

    I am also behind on planning healthy dinners to eat - I need to get on that. Listen to me nagging myself!I need to do these things but they don't all need to be sorted at this moment today do they?

    Good day all to come - need to eat breakfast,get showered and get on my bike in a bit.

    Hi Bear! Thanks for getting us going today. You are so right - it all doesn't have to be done today. Especially when it comes to house work. In fact, IMO, it can ALL wait until "tomorrow." :H Congrats on winning your match!!!!! :yougo: And you defo deserve some new wedge heels!

    Hello to all fabbies yet to come! TDN and Scottish Lass - hope you both find us here in the new Monday thread.

    I'm off soon to leads group, then errands, then volunteering at the Mission, then my week 6 #1 C25K run. That schedule aughta keep me outa trouble!!!!

    One thing is for sure...there will be NO drinking AL for this girl today. Too much livin' to do.

      Morning Bear, DG, and Fabber's near and far,

      Great stuff Bear on your win, on saturday, and your win within you! Don't get too overwhelmed with stuff to do. I'm sure you've got a handle on everything, but i know for me, if i think I've got too much on, i can get myself frustrated, and actually run around doing nothing! But like you're saying, i just slow it all down and do things when i'm good and ready.

      DG! My favourite possum! :l:l:l Congratulation's again on 3 years booze free. You are just fabulous my friend, in every way. :h

      Have a great day everyone!

          new week

          Hi, All.

          Looking forward to an AF day today and this last week of May. Still raining here, but it's supposed to be warm-and hopefully--sunny tomorrow! Have been on ths site for a couple of hours--still in my pjs and don't have to get moving for a while yet. Then a few busy days. Wishing all of you a great AF week, too! I am so grateful for all of the support here.

                Greetings to all, happy monday! Everyone is so busy. All you senior members seem so WITH IT! I am kind of worn out this morning I confess, went to the memorial for my friend, literally hundreds of people there, he was a somewhat notorious lawyer and a ball of fire, but died of cancer at only 71.... if wishes were horses Id ride a long road to see him again. I saw many old friends, some of them obv struggling with AL still, (the 60's and 70s sucked for glorifying AL and drugs IMHO) and then drove here to the top of my study area, late last nite. And now its off to Calgary to fly to Fort McMurray to present 10 years of research about 100 years of ecosystem recovery in 15 minutes! lol! Life will slow down for me later this week.

                I must get to work here, and try to get in a brisk walk at some point this morning. Possibly through the airport??? Flying with hip replacements means I have to get there early, but this much is for sure....

                  Morning all! Week 2 starts today! sticking to the plan I posted in starting out on DG's urging! Doing the MWO check in and get my thoughts right for the day. I get to work from home today, so will shower in a min, then gym for a session with trainer. It is cloudy and windy now, but supposed to brighten up this afternoon, so if I work really hard maybe I can catch a few rays this afternoon? The sun is really helping my state of mind!
                  So here to another AF week - working at home was always a good excuse for a glass of wine with lunch, which of course started the days drinking - so new habits to be formed...
                  I will probably lurk around a fair bit today.
                  good luck to all - and happy Monday hangover free!

                      Happy un-hung Monday ABeroooos!

                      nicely done Bear!

                      Scottish Lass, wonderful to have a neighbor. I'm in Reno NV but travel the HW-80 a great deal for work since i'm in sales. Yes I love the fried arties too...so yummy. I just had to make it a quick trip so I grabbed the biggest jar of jumbo garlic-stuffed olives and headed on.

                      since I'm officially 29 now my dear Dx is taking me to the new Vietnamese restaurant in town tomorrow night. it's very rare for me to go out to dinner when I'm home but that really sounds like a fun treat. Happy to say this will be my 5th consecutive AF birthday dinner.

                      be well everyone

                        Hello friends.

                        Happy birthday to you Det!:h

                        Scottish Lass--the sun appears to be my source of energy as well! It was a gorgeous day today, now it has clouded up and looking stormy. I gotta tell you I feel so bad for the folks in Missouri and other states that got hammered by tornadoes this weekend. Hubby and I were just watching a show about the tornadoes in the south earlier this spring. Damn. Such utter devastation. I get real nervous when these storms come up!

                        #1 son was asking me a bit ago if I ever just smoked 1 ciggy every now and again. Then he said what about alcohol. He asked how long and I said almost 3 years. I hope my change in lifestyle makes a difference in his. At least I will be able to tell if he's doing anything or not though.

                        Super busy week with not enough hours in the days. I keep telling myself, one thing/one day at a time. It will all get done. If not, it will be there later.

                        :h
