Tuesday 15 October AF Daily

[bear73]

Hey all - plenty of coffee on, up ready for another day - lets see how many threads we can have for today:H. Day 25 - it's the longest I have made it in a long time - feeling proud of myself. I made myself physio appt about stiff/sore neck and shoulders and dental appt to start getting fitted for night guard as I grind teeth - I may actually cancel both now. It seems daily stretching and heated wheat bags/hot water bottles is helping me no end. It will be nice to save some money - ?650 in total!

Other than that today I have a supervision with the tricky character in my team,not looking forward to it but I feel ready,and more ready than I was last week.Tonight I will do DVD or hit gym,put a load of washing on and generally chill out.

Happy Tuesday everyone - 4 weeks until beach holiday.

Why don't you ever see elephants hiding in trees?
Because they're really good at it.

I went to the doctor for a checkup - it all went fine, until he tried to write my prescription with a thermometer he had taken from his breast pocket. After a pause, he looked at the thermometer and said 'Damnit! Some asshole has my pen!'

A guy is at the supermarket doing his weekly shopping when he notices a foxy new clerk running the Express Check-Out. When it's time to check out, he of course heads to her aisle. When it's his turn he puts his groceries, four frozen pizzas, a tube of toothpaste, and a Maxim magazine on the counter. The clerk looks at him and smiles saying, "Single, huh?"
"How could you tell?" he says with a smile.
"Because you're fucking ugly."

The man says "That ain't a lion, it's a giraffe!"

Good morning Abbers!

Thanks for starting just one thread today kids :H

Hi bear, great on 25 AF days!
The longer you go without AL the calmer you will feel ~ honestly. I think I'd rather spend a few bucks on a relaxation/meditation CD than all that money on a mouth guard. I don't think I could tolerate sleeping with one of those things in place. When my daughter was a young teen the orthodontist made a retainer for her wear at night after the braces came off her teeth. Without fail she would wake up every morning to find the retainer on the floor. Apparently she was taking it out of her mouth & tossing it across the room in her sleep :H

Greetings Mick ~ the mystery man
Sorry to say that I do actually see the sun today but the rain is due back tomorrow. I'll be watching the grandsons from noon until ?? tonight & I will run them around outside while I can

Hi Cindi!
Pumpkin spice coffee is the best!!! Have a great week!

Sam, loved your family portrait!
Looks like a serene gathering

OK, off I go. Wishing everyone a terrific AF Tuesday!

Morning all
a good nights sleep and off to work. I went in yesterday to go to the clerk's office and damn if it wasn't closed... Columbus Day. Never thought of that because it is not something that really sticks out as eventful I suppose. Wonder if the Hawaiians celebrate Cook's Day?

Bear, you're doing good. Keep on keeping on.

photo was taken in my brother's back yard near Lexington, Va. He really has a pretty place.

off to the races, hope everyone has an enjoyable day.

MAE all! Good to see everyone.

Congrats on your time, bear! You are sounding very good, and it is wonderful to see you taking such good care of yourself. Oh, and thanks for the coffee.

Sorry Mick, call me selfish, but we will only have the sun for another day, and after a whole week of gloom and rain, I feel disinclined to share it. So beotchy, yes? LOL I hope the sun makes its way to you soon. On the other hand, you are everything a person should be in retirement. You have so many activities and projects. I hope when I retire (if I get to, that is) that I will be like you.

I read that you cut your hair in subs, Cinders! You have my admiration. I am afraid to go too short. I'm glad you love it. I think you are in the midst of a good transformation. :l

I hope you get a little serenity this morning, Lav, before the hordes descend. You are a good grandma--that's all I am going to say.

Hi Pauly, I hope you're doing well out there in Vegas. Stay clear of those crazy drivers!

I love the picture, Sam. Love the foothills of the mountains in VA. It is a beautiful place. You all with your instruments look so cool. I'm thinking of heading over there to buy a bushel of apples and then making and canning some apple butter. Yummy.

Well, I have figured out how not to go on late-night eating benders, and it is curiously similar to not going on a drinking bender. JUST DON'T START EATING after dinner. Period. Who'da thunk it? LOL I kept thinking I could have "just one" little treat before bed, but it turns out, I was being quite alcoholic in my thinking and was being quite a snackaholic. Now that I've cut that out, I've dropped a pound in just a few days. Duh.....Amazing how that thinking can sneak into other areas of our lives.....

Anyway, I have a 12 hour training tomorrow, so I may not be able to check in, but I'll be thinking of all of you if I can't. Two thirds of the training will be on therapist self-care, i.e., yoga and meditation for the therapist. I can't believe I get continuing education credit for this--what a deal! LOL

Anyway, hugs to all and everyone to come.

:l

I have been going back to Hot Yoga....the 105 degree kind 26 poses. I feel soooooo amazing! Detox like crazy. Entire body feels relaxed and energized. Plus, sleep is sound and deep. I am addicted!

Did someone say Pumpkin? I have been overdoing the Pumpkin Munchins at Dunkin' Doughnuts....have to limit myself to only buying 5 at a time.

Lav....a gal in my office has these amazing teeth. She credits it to still wearing her retainer every night to this day after getting her braces off. When my son gets to that point I am taking him into then office to see her teeth

Mick....I am the one who has your sun....not inclined to give it up either!
