    af day Sunday 30 Dec

    Yippee - I am off on my week long road trip later today - with my partner and daughter. We hope to see some gorgeous parts of the country.

    Hope you all out there are OK with the weekend - sounds like the cold weather and snow is tiring some people out.

    Last night I cruised around on some of the other posts on MWO - and decided I would pretty much stick with this one. I like the structure, the determination, the intelligence (esp Mick's jokes!!) - and the PEOPLE (you guys!!!!). To me, there seems to be too much noise out there in cyberworld (including MWO) so I want to keep things simple.

    Re - my dr experience - fortunately I normally have a GP who is an exemplar of what a medic should be - she has been with me for c 18 years - and never ever given up on supporting me in my different paths towards sobriety. A lovely human being as well as a practical doctor.

    Must go and take the cat to the cat motel (he hates this) - cheerio!

    af day Sunday 30 Dec

    Good morning, TT!

    Hope you have a wonderful trip!! A whole week sounds lovely to me. And no snow! We got another six inches or so yesterday, and Mr TDN will have to get out with the snowblower to do the driveway. I got a call from my neighbor asking if I could take the nursery group at church today. Darn!! Only had to kids last eek, but I am sure it will be a full house today. No diapers--I don't do diapers:H

    Saw a job in our loal newspaper yesterday for a customer service rep with full benefits, so I will apply. Doesn't say which company, but I will get my resume out tomorrow. And the rep I did work for earlier is supposedly coming up on Thursday--we'll see. He's canelled twice before, and no, with the weather, I have my doubts.

    Hope everyone has a great AF day!

        Hiya TT and TDN,

        How's it hanging? All good with me and mine ....except couldn't sleep last night so VERY late start today. Woke up with that 'oh no I got drunk last night ' feeling YUCK.

        TT.... What I like about this thread is the consistency. We know why we are here and even if we ain't perfect we are aiming for an alcohol free life.

        TDN ...... You need to be sent a W not a P :H:H

        Congrats Cat on your 90 days..... I got you a little sumthinsumthin in general, hope you like it!

        Where is Mick? Will PM and drag him out.

        Cantoo..... Your room is aired and ready. Gotta get a bed tho, kids 'borrowed' it some time ago. Hope you had a good day in the snow.

        Yah ..... Fell over again, arrrrrggggghhhhh. May be getting some extra P from super crew if I can't get my head right. Using hypno tapes now. Are you using NRT?

        SL ..... Your a star, I bet your girls don't know where their old mum has gone ! 2013 AF......that'll do nicely

        Sun..... Am reading your blog and think it is a good thing for you to do. You said here that your dad was 'in the bar' do you mean he was drunk or ran a bar (or both) ? Being a bit nosey...hope you don't mind.

        Lav ...... Hope your day was good. I hear the Jan 'sales' will start on here soon ! :H:H should be interesting

        Greetings to PPQ, Nurdl, DET and all to come....hope your Sunday is as good as mine was

            To be honest I'm doing the shits KY...

            The fucking ex has been texting...i miss u...constantly...fucking BIL. I knew this would happen.

            I'm upset that Mick left...I think I know why as something was said on a different thread. He is my rock and it hurts when he's hurting.

            Tomorrow is another lawyer deadline for the poa's and I know it's going to be more shit that we get from them so am already preparing for court on Jan 8th.

            I'm getting bad vibes off the threads probably just because of my mindset right now...

            I seem to be hauling resentment and anger around with me these days....

            So you might be sorry you asked KY but I'm glad I've finally put it out there.

                And that's another issue. With the state I'm in I don't want to talk to anyone. We can be our own worst enemies can't we.

                Sorry for all that and should have posted on the "F" thread but this is home and this is where I was asked.

                AA meeting this morning so may try to deal with some of it there.

                Just typing it all out has actually helped, sometimes it's hard to always be up.

                Have a great AF Sunday all and all to come....PPQP

                  Well PPQ I am not sorry I asked ...... Isn't this why we have MWO?

                  I think I know why Mick is AWOL and that will come right.

                  As far as the threads I see a lot of positivity so I reckon your mood is colouring your perception. I wondered the other day when you were asking what was wrong with me, when I was fine. Our minds play tricks with reality.

                  I PMed my thoughts on the ex...... You MUST protect yourself emotionally.

                  Work will obviously feel overwhelming while your mood is low.

                  As Lav says.... Ups and downs are life. You will come out of the down and be stronger for it......honest. :l:l

                    Good morning Abbers,

                    Have & safe travel wishes going out to TT!

                    Greetings Kuya, PQ, TDN & everyone!

                    PQ, I truly believe that happiness is a choice. Regardless of what is going on in our lives we must wake up everyday & choose to be happy.
                    I know you have a lot going on, please don't let it all suck the energy out of you. Stay on your path, go to your AA meeting, come back here & bitch your heart out, whatever it takes
                    I have a multitude of problems going on around me but I am refusing to allow them to take my energy. If nothing else take 10 minutes a few times per day to clear your mind, concentrate on your breathing, play some relaxing music. It really does help, give it a try!

                    OK, I need to decide what I am going to do today ~ obviously I have nothing planned.
                    Wishing everyone mindpeace

                    Lav

                      Morning all!
                      Mindpeace! That's a lovely one Lav. Another pearl to add to your book of wisdom.

                      Ah Mick. We miss you here dear one. If someone has hurt you please know that you are loved by so many people here. I suppose there is no way around it. Where ever you go, there will be someone who will try to bring you down. Come back soon love. xoxo

                      I don't post much but I'm just waiting for my first nastygram. Everyone seems to get one at some time or other.

                      Didn't get my butt out for yoga this morning. Bed felt too warm and nice. I'm going to try to get into the hot tub as long as I'm being lazy. There's snow on the ground and its abit windy. That's going to hurt but someone has to get out there. Lol.

                      In having second thoughts about the Sober 2013 thread. Silly I know I'm doing well just noodling along day to day and I don't intend to drink its just a daunting commitment. I hope it doesn't create pressure for some. I should post this over there.

                      Anyway, time yo get the suit on and head outside ( giggle). This is going to hurt so good.
                      Tub Time!

                        The 30th is round number day.

                        CAT - 90 AF Days
                        KY - 120 AF Days
                        Mick - 180 AF Days

                        Nurdl, you will be a round number with me in a few days

                        Slow start today, the cat didn't get me up for her medication. I'm sure she'll be pissed all day. Sorry Keeda.m I've had so many days off now that I only knew it was Sunday because of the string of Cornation Street episodes. :H. Ahh happy Sunday. KY, we got to see Jason in his skivvies.

                        PPQP - I wish we had met in the middle. You know, we still can one weekend. Snowshoeing in Sylvan Lake? You can rent them from MEC, so no excuses. Shopping at that outlet mall by you....It's time for your EX to realize you have a new healthier life that comes with new friends, new interests and a renewed interest in your emotional growth. And maybe some new shoes. .

                        Happy Sunday Lav and TDN.

                        Thanks for the Sunday start Tree.

                        Off to continue building the life I want. XC skiing for the first time in 40 years. Sure do hope I use the right wax.

                          I have a big pot of meatballs & sausage simmering on the stove for the carnivores who will be here later :H

                          I must have missed something.......
                          One of the MWO passive aggressives has been picking on Mick? WTF?
                          I think you have a point nurdl ~ if you hang around long enough, eventually it will be your turn
                          The best way to deal with those feckers is ignore them - they will go away as long as you don't feed their self-absorbed egos.

                          I'm about to light up a nice warm fire to take the chill off. There will be no snowshoeing for me today CanToo :H
