    monday morning

    Good morning Bear and all to come,

    Day 4 for me today....Still feeling very optamistic...Looking forward to playing football tonight...I applied for a few jobs this morning and am planning on decorating ours and the kids bedrooms this week...So doing my best to keep busy and not let the awful seed get back in my mind.

    Had a very weird dream last night..My eldest went into town (13) and never came home...In my dream it was early hours and i was running around screaming because i couldnt help her...Thinking about it i always feel useless when i'm drinking...It might have been a throw back to that......Thank god it was only a dream anyway...I still woke up feeling really anxious though..

    WEIRD...

    Have a great day all

      Hi Macks, we haven't spoken before, but I've read a lot of your posts. Glad you're back and looking forward to the future. I hate those dreams that feel more real than real life, I never used to dream when I was drinking a lot, now I have lots, I think it's my brain clearing out cr#p while I'm sleeping properly nowadays instead of just passing out in a coma !!

      Bear, good to see you so positive ! have a good time tonight.

      I've got so much to to do today and I can't get on because I'm obsessed with this site...I've got loads of the boards still to read !

      have a good day everyone

        Morning here...Presidents Day...got the day off....

        Hey Mack....after my "drinking binge" (4days) I would always dream about my youngest (41/2~ yes I'm clinging to his youth & mine as well LOL). Oh these dreams-him almost dying, him getting hurt. Never my daughter. ......hugs back to you

        bear...time....I know ....it's hard

          monday morning

          Good morning all. Day 36 with many more days on the horizon. This feels so good. I remember when I finally quit smoking for the last time - this is what this feels like - that I have finally let go. I am not saying that I am never going to have a drink again but I don't know when that is going to be. We are planning a trip to Laughlin, which is a mini-version of Las Vegas (free booze while you gamble), and I can actually picture an alcohol free trip.

          Bear, enjoy yourself tonight. The fuzz will go away.
          Mack, delightful to see you back. My heart is with you and Lisa - hope you are doing okay. Stay strong - good thoughts are going your way.
          Pebbles, I hear you about these boards- what am I even doing here? I've got too much to do. To the gym with me and back to work!
          SeaBreeze - what's a day off? Everybody thinks there is so much flexibility about working out of your home. The good thing about one of these pseudo-holidays is that stock market is closed, which is kind of the base of operation for many of the companies I work with, so it will probably be a light day for me.

          For everyone that comes later, have a great day.

            Good Monday morning Absville....

            Macks...its good to have you back. I always dream when not drinking but the ones I have right after quitting are more of the "worrisome" nature. Probably our brain adjusting.. :ls to you and Lisa.

            Pebbles....this is a good obsession!

            Bear...Deep breaths and lots of water...:l

            Barb and Seabreeze....and all who come...much :h to you.

            We had a great weekend here. Our son and daughter-in-love came to visit.
            She and I had a movie marathon and the boys "played" with wood and saws and guy stuff!
            AF....and lots of good food. Doesn't get any better than this..

              Morning guys, Macks that is awesome on your AF days!!! COngrats to everyone on your accomplishments, I hope you all have a great day whether you are working or not ( I am not, please dont throw anything at me,hehe)

              Day 38 AF, Hit a bit of a rough spot this weekend but I made it through okay, glad I did too, I would have been really angry if I had given in and had to start counting over, but I definitely wasnt expecting to have that happen and it certainly gave me a huge reality check.

                Sh*t and d*mn*tion!!! I just lost a big long post addressing everyone personally and everything. Poop!!

                I don't have time to re-do it, so I will just send my love to everyone. I REALLY HATE IT WHEN THAT HAPPENS. *$#%^#%!!!!!

                I'm okay though, just a tad vexed at the moment!
                Hugs,

                  These mondays sure seem to come around quickly.

                  Had another good weekend, seems that there is so much more time available now that I don't waste half of it either drinking or recovering.

                  Reading the posts from the weekend how for many the cravings hit when we least excpect it.
                  When it happens to me - distraction and exhaustion seem to help overcome.
                  Clean the house
                  Move the furniture
                  Make phone calls
                  Try a new recipe / bake a cake
                  Take a long walk

                  Most of all remind myself that the quickest way to spoil everything is "open a bottle"

                  Best wishes to all

                    Good evening.
                    Lots of great AF days posted. Well done. (Day 9 for me).
                    I went to work this morning and we were a man down right away. (serious hangover, couldn't possibly get his head off the pillow). Then we got all set up and the boss decided that we'd just call it a day at 11:30am.
                    Another hangover! I felt bad for feeling so good...and then I didn't.
                    Changed times.
                    Have a great day.

                            Afternoon all....really really busy with work today but just wanted to say hello. Glad to have you back Macks.

                            Not going to name everyone now...but hi to all and everyone sounds pretty darn good today. Sorry about you losing that post Kath.....arrrrgggh (I'll be mad with you).

                            Work is hectic but that's ok. I had company over the weekend. My mother's neighbor is up to atl for a conference and came early and stayed with me sat night and then most of sunday. So, didn't get a ton done around the house but that's ok too. My mom is having surgery on the 27th this month -she had quadruple bypass 8 yrs ago and now they have determined she needs a stint put in. If you could say a little prayer I would appreciate it. I know she will be ok but still...

                            Have a great day. day 115 af for me

                            Love to all,
