LB, dinner sounds delicious!

Pav, it's good to know that our emotions are everyone in the first year so that when it does come and go, we can just be patient and know that it won't last. Thanks for that. Hope hubby is feeling ok today!

I see my GP every three months. It's just something I"ve done for so long, don't even know if it's required. Probably is. I like him, and co-pay is cheap, so I don't mind at all.

Busy day today grading papers, house stuff and the usual getting ready for the week stuff. MIL here for the day visiting, too.

Gosh, I realized I haven't been out of the house since Friday night. That's ok with me. It's so windy and cold out today. Have a good start to the week All.

Windy and cold here too J-vo. Finally we're getting a taste of winter. Now I'm glad of fleece fest! I have sewn fleece for 2 months. Lots of pants, jackets, blankets. My daughter has been llooking at me strangly, but it's kept me busy.
Pav I recall the slump I felt after I quit drinking. Wow. That lasted about 3 months. But I can honestly say even though I felt low, it felt 1000 times better tgen the gsr's and hangovers. Plus I knew it would pass and be SO worth it. It did pass and it was worth it. I never have to go through that again. I Choose to never go through that again.
Jane I too offer my support.
Choices you too.
I don't know that much about depression, but I'm here if you need to talk.

I hope that my sharing the meds dose doesn't make you all see me any differently.

It does a little, Jane - I see your 2 AF years as all the more impressive for having been accomplished in the face of all that. I'm sorry that finding the right type and dose of medication is such a struggle :hug:.

Thanks NS, Lil, Pav & everyone! Wishing everyone a good EMA. (11pm over here in Jerz hence the order of letters). xx

[treetops]

do you mean N Jersey Jane?

[jane27]

Yes TT.

[treetops]

well I know its a huge area with a an even huger population - so I won't let me imagination from watching the Sopranos at the moment carry me away!
You should be asleep Jane!

Good Monday Morning,
About to start my workout. Never, ever could do this, as I had a few on Sunday's, was usually in bed early like I was last night, but not in any shape to do what I'm doing now. I'm in the right place. Sobriety is right for me and I'm grateful.

Lil, sewing away...my aunt also sews, bought a new machine this past year and she made all of her nieces beautiful quilts for Xmas. I LOVE MY QUILT. It's beautiful. She's going to make my son a quilt for graduation that is all of his baseball and basketball shirts. We saved them over the years and I've seen them done. Pretty cool.

Have a great day all.

Jane, 2 years!!! Yahoo!! That is so awesome! What an accomplishment. I am very proud of you Jane, you have been such a support to me and I appreciate all your posts. Way to go girlie!

Lil B, Warm fleece sounds awesome. I am wearing 3 layers right now, it is -10C outside. My poor dog freezes every time we put him out.


It is so nice to be able to get up early and work out. I got up this morning at 5:40- Un Hung- and took my dog for a walk. That means he was tucked in my jacket because it is too cold for him to actually walk outside for more than 1 min. We walked for about 20 minutes and it was really nice. I could not have done that if I was Hung over because I would sleep until the last second possible. This dog is getting so much more attention than my previous ones just because I am sober. Lucky doggie!

We have been watching Narcos, it is really interesting. Nurse Jackie is not on Netflix Canada yet either! I am watching Making a Murderer and it is pretty good. Also The Knick is good.

Gotta go!

[jane27]

Thanks Nar! How is Elvis doing? I want to see the Knick! What chanel do you watch it on? Grace & Frankie on Netflix is fun & good for some giggles. Pretty darn cold here but feeling better today. Spent 6 hrs making Rainbow cookies yesterday. What a production! They are pretty good but I don't think I would have tried it if I knew *the truth* about the prep time. Wishing everyone a great day❤️

"Im in love with a Jersey girl, sing sha na sha na na nah.......sha na nah na na na nah......sha na na, na na na nah, sha na na I'm in luurve with a Jersey giiirrrll, sing sha na, na na na nah..........."

[jane27]

I haven't heard that song in such a long time. Just listened on YouTube. Looooove it! He's an amazing live performer. Thanks for the memory!

[little beagle]

Narilly I think of you and Elvis when I'm being a wimp because it's 45 degrees out and the wind is blowing. I'm in 3 layers too. Poor Elvis. I bet he enjoys those walks all cuddled up in your jacket.
Jane I have to admit that I agree with NS. I have a huge respect for you.

[jane27]

Thanks Lil:hug: The feeling is mutual! Xxx

Hi, all:

G - thanks for the memory.

I am sad today about David Bowie. I have never heard anyone say or write anything other than what a great guy he was - artist, creator, innovator. I know that he helped so many teens who were on the "outside" growing up. I loved his songs, and also feel like it is the end of some sort of era. Sad.

LB - I LOVE fleece. I am jealous of people who have the patience to sew. I think I am a blunt instrument - gross motor skills over fine motor skills.

Night, gloamers. I am glad to be here.

Pav
