Getting fed up with the ongoing fatigue and gotta go to the GP methinks and get tests. Ironic really.....to feel more tired sober

af day Thurs 15 Nov

Hey everyone! It's unusual that I am around this early; woke up at 5am and couldn't get back to sleep. So I decided to get up and try to get something done for a change.

KY, I hope your doc has some help for you on being tired.

I hope you have a terrific day, Molly!

Thanks for the cuppa and jokes, Mick.

I have 100 days today, and I'm feeling rather proud of myself. The time flies when you're having fun. I remember the first few days of not drinking, and the idea of 100 days seemed way too far away to even contemplate!

Have a good day, all!

Hugs,

I hear you Kuya. I can hardley drag myself out of bed in the morning. I would love to "wake up" and drop a few pounds too! In time I suppose. Have a good day/afternoon/evening yourself.

Morning Mick...thanks for the coffee and the kickoff. Gotta say you got that one bang on :H

Boss back at work today but he'll be busy catching up so should have a quiet day. Will be busy the next two with the craft sale.

Sucessful lawyer meeting...in court this morning for application approval. Serving of papers Saturday/Sunday. First court date Dec 18. Finally feel like something is happening.

Morning Molly...it does make you wonder how they would get on without us!

Morning KY...if the GP figures it out will you let us know? Sounds like a lot of us are struggling with fatigue.

Morning YahYah...what can I say...
"CONGRATS ON 100"

Good morning Abbers!

Just convinced my DIL by text message that NO today is NOT my turn to babysit. The regular paid sitter is on the schedule for today :H
I feel good dodging that bullet even though they will all be here by 6 pm for dinner. Enough is enough!

Greetings Mick, Molly, Kuya, PQ, Nurdl & everyone!

CONGRATS ON 100 AF DAYS YAHYAH :yay:
That's a great feeling, be proud today!

OK, back to work for me now.
Wishing everyone a great AF Thursday!

How to stay sober longterm??? Join de daily Abbers thread :-)

Agreed Molly - this thread is absolutely helping me!!:l:l
Well Done YAH - I hope to be you one day.....:goodjob:
Gummy Bears are getting me home from work daily, today they got me to work as well:H Better watch my sweetie intake, it is increasing - oh well, still AF so not sure I really care just yet - have to watch the weight thou.
Kuya - thanks for the sleeping tips, I took the melatonin last night without much impact, will get some tryptophan and see if that magic combination lures the sandman back!
Have a great day everyone and thanks for the daily posting, this is my lifeline right now:thanks:

Greetings FABinolis!

Mickster...have I told you lately how much I appreciate your humor and caring? So grateful for our thread emcee and comedian! Sounds like you have a great plan in place and have forearmed yourself for the wedding.

YAH! 100 days! Triple digits are a big deal in the journey to be normal again. For me...AF time sure now seems like it is flying. Just imagine how great we'll feel when we roll the AF odometer into the 4 digit zone!

Porquoi - you are really doing well figuring out how to deal with the inevitable stress of the legal situation. You've inspired a lot of us with your example.

Kuya...does summer knock on the door politely down under? lol. Such a cute way you phrased your post. Maybe your hopping devil avatar scared the pee out of summer?

Molly...now that you solved the problems of your hubby's world...can you come up here and help my hubby?

Scottish Lass....so glad you are here. I am also a nightly fan of melatonin and L-tryptophan. I take the powdered form of L-tryp with a tiny bit of orange juice to help it cross the blood-brain barrier. Works wonders. L-tryp is an element that ends up in short supply after years of drinking. I also take valerian root capsules to help sleept. I'm out in about 20-30 minutes after taking my nightly dose.

Lav...is Christmas the busiest time for your business? You sure seem to handle everything that you do so well. I am seriously thinking about 'sneaking' some chickens into my life. A new neighbor on the next block has a chicken coop. We are not 'zoned' for that in this hood. BUT...those cluckers are nice and quiet (no rooster!) and my surrounding neighbors are cool....so I am thinking....hmmmmm? I will see how these hood chickens make it through the winter.

Ok...enough of chicken dreams. I am off to shovel the deck and get on with bidness.

hugs to all who are yet to come....

Hi Lilly, I hope you have a wonderful masasage day!

Mick, once you make it through this weekend YOUR ON VACATION MY FRIEND! Have a relaxing time in the :rays: Hey do you golf?

I think you need some sun too KY! We've got tons of sun over here. The rays bounce nicely off the snow. teehee

PPQ - Hi There! I saw this groupon coupon email. Did you know that there are approx. 7 cities in Canada who have companies that organize and run scavenger hunts? No, none in AB. Wonder if we could make a part time business out of it? Corporate team bonding, kids birthday parties, staggettes....

Hello Molly, Cat, Turn, Nurdl, RC and SL.

Lav, taking the day off babysitting. Nice one!

During yesterday's training I was a little whinny. Not usually like me. Giving myself an ADJUSTMENT before tomorrow's session. All exercise plans are a go, but now I have to add more. Was told that I need exercise 5 days a week because I was once a lot more active. Ugh now I must add 2 more movement days by Sunday. I'm not giving up my touching appointment on Saturday :stomper: (I love this guy too) .

K, lunch was over 20 minutes ago. Between working out and board work I will attempt my much needed mental adjustment.

See Ya.

Hey all. Hi CanToo. Man I could use a mental adjustment myself. I've been so anxious the past few days. I hope that will all go away once I hop on the plane on Saturday.

Way to go Lav. Let your daughter know that she cannot take your every waking moment. Plus she's over for dinner tonight too? Wish I had a mom like you. You rock.

Feels like Friday today.
