I know it's only two days but a journey starts with a single step according to some wise bod.

Happy hippy huppy 70th Ava!

If I could ban something on this site, it's people saying "only x days". Roxy, in my book, an AF day is a huge achievement. You'll come and post everywhere before you do something silly, won't you. Give us a chance to talk you out of it

And AVA 70 days! 30 more and you can post on the grown-ups' thread!

If I'm counting, it's 3 days this week so far, 4 days last week. Quite a few 1 dayers in the previous weeks. Last time I did this is a distant memory, years ago.

But I'm not.


yes I am. :H:H

Loamers hello hello

I just said to Liam that it is 70 days for me and he says "you should have had a drink yesterday", i asked why and he said "i like that number 69". I replied with well you have a smoke of crack and i'll have a drink, he said "no i am proud of you mum". Sometimes you want to slap them! I'm starting to like my boys again, just a little bit!

Rox, Rox Rox. Congrats on day 3 girl, keep up the good work. Not only are you making yourself proud you are making me proud too. Have you read "you know your an alcoholic when", that takes the cravings away laughing and thinking OMG i so did that!. I read some to my boys and they peed themselves laughing. Funny but sad when you think back on what we did.

LB rest away, that is what i do after being out of the house for 50+ hours a week. If i care to do anything then i do. Recharges the batteries for the next week. Look after yourself girl.

NS, your paper has arrived again! Just a short intermission!. Thanks for the congrats, i still think its someone else not drinking but my body and mind say otherwise. Everyday it feels good to be alive and functioning in the real world.

Mary good to hear you like my posts thank you and for the congrats. As MWOers say, if i can get to 70 days anyone can. The switch switched for me and it wasnt a rock bottom i hit, it was just lots of things accumulating for a few months that made me realise i was the only one that could change the path of self destruction i was on and thus far it is working. As Dream said that thought of sitting in a provence just having one sounds so nice and god yes it does but not to us alkies, we can never ever have one. That makes me sad sometimes but just remembering what a fool i made of myself covers that aspect.

Jvo thank you, you have helped me on this journey of being sober, more than you probably know. Well for a start you made me very angry the other day and i had not experienced that in weeks. To let that feeling come to the surface was a good thing, it meant that i can experience these feeling without al. I think i was scared to start really feeling in case i failed. Then of course the stress with Maddison happened so i have been thrown a real curve ball that has made me stronger. You have also made me laugh and cry with the journey you are on and you a dear beautiful friend to me.

Dream, thank you and YES 30 days to go woo hoo, i still have not peaked as i am going in there proud as punch knowing that finally i farking made it. I am with you there, any day af is a wonderful day be it 1 day or 1000. I stalk Rox at night lol, there are bonus's to being in a different time zone. We are scary arent we, maybe that is why there are not many of us as we scare everyone! With love, wisdom and support of course.

Rox wait till you do a whole 7 days, that is a wonderful feeling of achievement knowing you can do everyday with a Y. Before you know it Y days are just another day in the life of being sober and happy and the past is a memory kept to deter you from touching al again and nothing more.

The vet rang me last night and said that Maddy is on pain relief (maybe that is why she looked so happy yesterday, she was off her face), she is eating a little bit but not enough yet and has yet to poo so they are keeping her but will see how she goes Saturday (today). I just needed to see her and i did so i am much relieved. The area where the grass seed was is still very bruised. Apparently these seeds break off and can enter their body and find a vital organ to poison. Of course is is so dry here and my backyard is just dirt and weeds that grass seeds are rife. I do hope my girl is home today although it is going to be a brutal 40 so maybe she should stay. I just imagine her laying in a hospital bed (like us humans) with the tv on, drip in her arm, chilling back with her food tray beside her and a mag on her lap just dozing on and off. I know SHE IS A DOG. lol.

Well Liam has made me a cuppa, not that he is sucking up my a**e but i am taking it with all i have. I fb'd his best friend and told him he can come around but not to tell liam as Liam will crap himself. Oh i love getting at my boys. Off to the drs with Mia as she had her first counselling session last week for her anxiety so a checkup with the drs. All happening in the day of my life but its a sober life for me now.

I hope i have impressed everyone with my long post although i missed Pavs wake up gazette this morning.

Love you guys and these 70 days are for all of us as without you all i would be god knows where.

Humble 100 days, i love you and get over to that thread and tell me what it is like. No no no dont!

That has been me in the past Humble. Good going on the 100 days. :wave:
Ava great post. Glad your pup is getting better. You are sounding better. Being able to enjoy the kids is wonderful isn't it? 70 days worth now, good for you.
Hubby and I are getting ready to watch olympics. The first time. Before I just wasn't able to concentrate.
Thank you all for your support. As you know here in Louisiana we are in Mardi Gras season. This will be my first sober. Christmas holidays I was ok with, but this one is a bit more difficult. I wrote my plan out and I will be staying close to MWO.
Have a great MAE all.

morning

thanks all for the acknowledgement, most appreciated.

ava, ive read every.single.post of that thread. sobering indeed.
ive done 3 days so dar this week, not on day 3 yesterday. its day 3 today. time zone can be awkward as well as handy lol.
im on maddie poo watch, let us know when she does so i can get the flags out!

humble, im lucky i dont get like that lady. people think im sober, or just tipsy. i like to be in control! and yes, i see the irony.

i woke up slowly this morning where your thoughts go where they like. a load of of baggage with my mother. had to snap it off and get up. then tears appeared wtf! i was so frustrated because i know i cant bring anything up with her. i have tried in the past and she immediately gets aggressive defensive and grabs victim status. she then goes to her husband and tells her version of what i said and he comforts her. shes got it down pat.

how do i know? he has come out with stuff (when hes talking to me) that is completely not what i said!

no proper adult conversation there!

ok, thats enough.

have a good day!!

Hey Rox i am taking it as day 3 as still day 70 for me. Damn it is hot here 38 degrees and nearly 9.30 at night and no air con. Maddy is still in hospital she was not well today so they kept her in but hoping tomorrow she can come home. She is eating and weeing but keep watching you are still on poo patrol!

Oh you have a dragon mother too, mine loves to play the victim but now i am not letting her get to me as i will not drink AT her. I am going with her to thailand and if she starts i will get up and walk away. Feel sorry for her Rox, there is nothing we can do to change their behaviour we just have to live with it until we are strong enough without al to face them. i am not yet strong enough but in saying all that she is my mother and i love her but i dont have to tolerate her behaviour.

Just look at your mothers husband, raise your eyes and say "really" and smile. Saying nothing is sometimes better but if you are like me i go off the handle, say things i dont mean and yep get into shit but most of the things i do mean i just dont mean to say them at that time. sigh!

Is today a good day for you? I hope so as you are sounding good. The anger the sadness, all of those feelings come to the fore when we dont have al to drown them in so just go with them, but you know al will not make them better.

well thats my lecture for a bit ha ha.

PS i thought the one where she was designated driver and then got blind and let the barman drive home and felt she owed him a HJ with the lights on in the garage and the door up. No it wasnt me lol!
