    af day Mon 14

    Good morning all...and how are we today?..well its snowing here, not the real stuff just the cheapo version, but nevertheless there is snow!....Kuya , take note, you wouldnt be jumpin in any pool here wi nae claes on !!!:H

    Everyone had a good weekend? Was out yesterday ,and probably put my leg back to day one...walking through mud at least 6 inches deep for a few miles...when I took the dressing off, and the painkilllers wore off...ouch!!! not my cleverest of moves!!!

    Right here we go then this magnificent Monday morning..a montage of mirth and muppetry!!!

    Tea and coffee are prepared and on the go.

    Morning treetops...hmm confused this morning...was looking for the southern start but it wasnt there! how are you today?..or in your same DA parlance how is one?So you are a product of Mickanese and Jockanese? Interesting...one knows how to dig holes...the other will sell you the kit to do it with..guess which is which

    morning SF....no sermons today!!!phew was the reply!!!:How are you? did the box of wine make its exit to the trash?

    Mornin Lills..aka mmdu.................there you go work that one out..not you Lills you can its easy!! How are you today still on the abs...no Im not looking at your physical attributes (?)..anti booze scheme ..well pleased that the book club didnt tempt you yep think youre right about it al..yeh seen it , shot it sh.. it got the t shirt..now its time to create your own story book.

    Mornin Rabsy.......winnit? think we need to get a translator in here sometimes! have you ever noticed that when you get more than one Jock talking, especially if they dont live at home, (Scotland), and they meet up and start talking, its like having an accent top up? they revert back to type and the accent seems to come back broader.My wife says that..whenever we all meet up, she can hardly understand us, and yet individually no problem
    Heres one..my daughter was home over Christmas..really smart,,she started talking about this language they use..so that people who you dont want to hear your conversation wont.She then proceeded to talk egg language.I was doing that back home about 14 years old!!!!Remember it Rabsy? for those that dont know..what you do is put egg in front of every vowel..hence yes becomes yegges, no neggo hello, heggeleggo and so on..try it.. guaranteed to amuse your friends at parties!!!!! :nutso:
    right enough slabber move on..how wiz your weekend?


    Morning KY.....................I lied .... nice pics Glad you had a good day with family and friends mate..any plans for today?


    Morning Lav dont spill that coffee while laughing!! how are you today?Is today a kid free zone or a target for demolition man? Whatever ...have a great day

    PPQP.... well done indeed..youve had quite bit to deal with...and yet not once did you think sod it and get a drink...ace thats what this is al about..just because we dont drink any more doesnt mean that the hard times disappear..all it means is we deal with them through different coping skills and strategies instead of trying to make them go away in an alcoholic blur, which inevitably does not make them do so, but rather increase our awareness of them and lessens our capabilities of dealing with them..
    How are you? numero uno? :goodjob:


    SL..well what can I say??already pmd you...but just for the record.......WELL DONE YOU.....you have made that decision and choice..its up to you now....we are all with you, yoer conscience, cheer leaders, support team we are all here ....so go for it....welcome to the dont want as opposed to dont need crew!!!

    TDN...how are you after your Downton Abbey sesh? pity we have seen them all here was a great series......any plans for today?

    Hi Shue..how are you today??know it aint that easy to post..but we are thinking of you .

    Right all you bootiful people time for an exit stage left..post is a bit long today..but hey Mondays are good for gossip!!!!
    CYA

    And for those at work today.....

    An organization is like a tree full of monkeys, all on different limbs at different levels.
    Some monkeys are climbing up, some down.
    The monkeys on top look down and see a tree full of smiling faces.
    The monkeys on the bottom look up and see nothing but assholes.



    Husband asks: Do u know the meaning of wife?
    ‘Without Infomation Fighting Everytime’.
    Wife on hearing replies,
    It also means ‘With Idiot For Ever’.

    A blonde keeps running back and forth on his driveway checking his mail.
    One day her confused older neighbor asks her why is she doing that so often and the blonde replies:
    “I don’t understand what’s going on but my computer keeps telling that I’ve got mail!?”

    Teacher: Billy stop making ugly faces at other students!
    Billy: Why, ma’am!
    Teacher: Because when i was a child, my parents told me that if i kept making ugly faces my face would stay that way!
    Billy: Well, i can see you didn’t listen then!

    Mother: What did you learn in school today ?
    Son: How to write.
    Mother: What did you write?
    Son: I don’t know, they haven’t taught us how to read yet!

    Wife hit her husband with frying pan.
    Husband: What was that for…?
    Wife: I found a paper in your pocket
    with the name Jenny on it.
    Husband: I took part in a race last week
    and Jenny was the name of my horse.
    Wife: Sorry..!
    Next day wife hit him with the frying pan again
    Husband: What now..?
    Wife: Your horse is on the Phone.

    I love my relationship with my bed. No commitment needed.
    We just sleep together every night.

    1. Sing the Batman theme incessantly.
    2. In the memo field of all your checks, write “for sensual massage.”
    3. Specify that your drive-through order is “to go.”
    4. Learn Morse code, and have conversations with friends in public consisting entirely of “Beeeep Bip Bip Beeep Bip…”
    5. If you have a glass eye, tap on it occasionally with your pen while talking to others.
    6. Amuse yourself for endless hours by hooking a camcorder to your TV and then pointing it at the screen. modem noises.
    22. Highlight irrelevant information in scientific papers and “cc:” them to your boss.
    23. Make beeping noises when a large person backs up.
    24. Invent nonsense computer jargon in conversations, and see if people play along to avoid the appearance of ignorance.
    25. Erect an elaborate network of ropes in your backyard, and tell the neighbors you are a “spider person.”
    26. Finish all your sentences with the words “in accordance with the prophesy.”
    27. Wear a special hip holster for your remote control.
    28. Do not add any inflection to the end of your sentences, producing awkward silences with the impression that you’ll be saying more any moment.
    29. Signal that a conversation is over by clamping your hands over your ears.
    30. Disassemble your pen and “accidentally” flip the ink cartridge across the room.
    31. Give a play-by-play account of a persons every action in a nasal Howard Cosell voice.
    32. Holler random numbers while someone is counting.
    33. Adjust the tint on your TV so that all the people are green, and insist to others that you “like it that way.”
    34. Drum on every available surface.

      You take it easy with that leg...you may have two but you need both of them.

      I appear to be in a pretty good mood this morning. I think I'm chuffed about all the praise. Thanks everyone for my mood.

        Happy Monday EVERYONE! It's a grand day outside. The sun is just coming up and I have my Mocha mint coffee. I must admit that the smell is better than the taste...maybe alittle more sugar in the next cup?

        I loved Mick's comment..."I love my relationship with my bed. No commitment needed.
        We just sleep together every night". I kinda have a similar relationship with my pillow...real feathers and all!

        I'm off to the Library today to see how many smiles I can invoke...LOL In my Tie dye and new headband I am LOOKIN GOOD! Maybe a book on hydroponic gardening and one about feeding the birds. Gonna look at novels to see if any pull my attention. I feel so out of touch with what's been
        happening in the world. The last 3 1/2 years have especially been a horrible blurr. The last 3 1/2 months have been a whole new awakening! I feel everyday is an opportunity to spread peace and kindness everywhere I go.
        Sober since Sept. 24th 2012 This time 4 SURE!

                  Good morning Abbers!!!!

                  It's Monday morning & I haven't really done a thing yet ~ oh well

                  Thanks for the coffee Mick!
                  No kids until dinner time tonight so I should use my free time wisely
                  Hope that leg of yours isn't bothering you too much. Nurse Lav & her first assistant Stella may have to make a house call - look out!!!

                  TT, you sound busy & that's a good thing!
                  PQ, keep that good mood going all day long
                  Hippy, have fun at the library! Don't overdue on your happiness quotient today :H
                  Kuya, do you really have short summers in NZ? I have no idea.
                  TDN, hope all goes well for you today on your mission.

                  Language - interesting topic!
                  I live in a rural farming area which means I am surrounded by a lot of non-English speaking people. There is a large community of farm workers from Mexico around here, some speak no English at all. There is also a large Amish community here who can speak perfect English when they want to but speak in 'Pennsylvania Dutch' to each other. It's bizarre because I do know some German & can usually figure out what they are saying - although I don't let them know that

                  OK, off to get my day going. Wishing everyone a wonderful totally AF Monday!!!

                    Hi Fabbies, whatever time of day it may be for you! I hope everyone has a good day.

                    I'm a little depressed, as I am having many late night sugar cravings, some of which I'm indulging. I have a bag of chocolate chips that I think I need to give to my neighbor. My weight loss has stalled. Also not sleeping very well, and I'm not sure why; maybe it's the sugar benders. I did have a rather nice dream about a man I know, though.

                    At any rate, zing a few good vibes my way please? I could use them today.

                    Hugs,
                    :l

                      Sounds like your body is talking to you.....Gman where are you?....Info needed.

                      Found myself binging on "gummy bears" while going through my latest life stress. Would munch away, reading my book, trying to fall asleep and then would end up wide awake and wanting more.

                      Zinging you some positive P's and Z's....:angel: "PZ..PZ..PZ"

                          Quick sneak ? while waiting at traffic lights.

                          Although my work is keeping me super busy I cannot complain. My post-skiing glow is firmly planted on my face.

                          Yes, my company is keeping tabs on me ? that?s OK. What?s not OK is that apparently people who searched for porn while at work got a slight slap on the wrist, while internet searches for AA or addiction help are HUGE red flags for people in key positions. That reduces me to MWO lurker status.

                          Yesterday on the ski lift I heard 3 Brits talk about their friend who decided to go back to the Priory for the 3rd time, because he did not feel he got over AL properly. They were making jokes on his expense ?oh, he just needs 2 more weeks of spa; hopes to hit on a supermodel in recovery?. I could still smell the AL in their breath from the night before ? I really wish the stigma of recovery and seeking help was gone.

                          Mick ? thank you for the daily dose of humor ? essential to mental wellbeing. I might change my avatar if I ever get the darn photoflippin? bucket to work properly on the iPad ? Just bought brand new ski boots I need to show off.

                          YahYah ? NoNo to sugar !!!! It is the root of ALL evil, not just rotten teeth and rounded thighs. Fresh green apple and ginger juice works magic if you?re feeling low. Also ? there are teas with licorice or sweet-root that can cure late night sugar munchies. Sending you a big dose of Shue enthusiasm for life.

                          Lav ? you are awesome. Period!

                          PQ ? how are you hanging on today? I kept thinking, 19, OMG just 19 yo !!!!

                          TND ?Fingers crossed for getting your license back, I do remember all the grief you had to go through.

                          Lilly
                          ? great to see you again. Would love a wee chat.
