    thursday 31st july

    mae all..how are we today then?all good ?off out early ish this morning..in the great outdoors today and its pouring down with rain..so looks like Im going to get wet today...

    well ..some talking done on here yesterday..but if it helps then :goodjob:

    ok lets start the ball rolling..tea n coffee on the go.

    hiya Lav....hows you today?all well..yep Ive got crumbly teeth too..due to acid..in the stomach ..not drinking it!!feeling better today thanx..so what are you up to today then?any plans?well after this cuppa that is.....

    hiya Pauly ...hows you today then?noticed you on one of the other threads..is it coming together for you?also noticed that you said you didnt need med help somewhere ...go for it girl ..you can do it!!!

    hiya SL.hows you today?all good?when are you holiday is it tomorrow?hope you enjoy it ..oh and dont be worrying about al..youll be fine...you have proved that you can say no ...and you know where we are..get on the old keyboard to us!!

    hiya Sam ..hows you then with your shiny toothy pegs...more to the point...hows the ?$"&tractor ..is it well and truly ^%$? or fixable?

    hiya Patrice...how are you today?yep you are are right ..theres def some crap happening in this world at the mo!!think Ill set me own wee world up!!

    biya ppqp..hows you today then ?all good?thats a good answer about the work thingy ..much more eloquent than me!!as for the not feeling good ..no it wasnt a downer..though it def could have turned into one..felt the" woe is me"saga coming on so just worked thru it..no probs today...thanks for asking ..bid brew in return

    hiya tt..how are you doing?in fact where and what are you doing?kinda hard to keep up with you..kinda similar situ to you ..never used to get down..things changed that ..but what I do know is booze def didnt help..in fact it made it harder to try and snap out of it!!

    hiya bear hows you today feeling positive ?remember..you are as good as anyone and better than some.couple of little thing for you
    1 think about your work..how can you get at least one laugh out of it today?
    2 use the drinktracker chart on this forum..its good when you see the good days mounting up..also if you do that ..then we can cheer you on!
    3 stay away from boozy situations..forget the "Im tough enough to face it scenario"..you aint...instead relax when you get home..just chill
    4 every time you feel like you need a drink ..write it all down..make a diary... learn to surf the crest.
    5 put a message on your phone about not drinking..but dont just put "dont drink or no booze" put a kind of abbreviated message like "nat".. no alcohol today..something that your brain has to work out every time you look at it..also write notes in your purse ...put wee coded messages any and everywhere..you know what they are ..no one else will..
    learn to feel good about yourself..you quit ...you feel better ,you look better you feel healthier and with that your confidence grows
    thats a few from me..sure that everyone else has some too.

    hiy a byrdie ..da da twice today on here?yeehah wise words ..thanx we can all do with them now and again!!

    right peeps thats me for the offski so take it easy

    As a proud Scotsman I'd like to say how disappointed I was to hear Usain Bolt describing the Commonwealth Games as "a bit shit" When you're in Scotland Usain, show a bit of respect and remember its not shit, it's shite.

    My dog's a stylish fella.

    He has a coat for winter and pants in the summer.

    I'm going to see Dawn Of The Planet Of The Apes tonight.

    I wish my mates would stop calling her that.

    Not saying the commonwealth games are crap but i ran down to the butchers this afternoon to buy some haggis and won a gold medal.

    My father once threw a camera at me,I still get flashbacks.

    I was at the pub the other day when the landlord walked up to me, handed me a phone and said, "It's for you, sir"

    "Thanks mate," I said, took it and walked away.

    What a generous lad.

          Good morning Abbers & happy Thursday

          Thanks for the coffee Mick, I've made some too
          I have a full day of work ahead & I just may end up watching my grandsons for a while too - oh boy!
          I need to find a coaches whistle to hang around my neck. I'm still limping around on a swollen & sore foot, chasing little boys is not an option right now :H

          Hello to the sleeping TT! Hi Patrice & everyone!
          Have a great AF Thursday one & all!

            MAE ALL...

            Mick...thanks for the kickoff and the brew. Glad to hear it wasn't the start of a downer and you try and stay dry out there. Other boss at the cancer clinic today so I'll will be heading in shortly.

            TT...hope you're sound asleep.

            Lav...you might want to think that whistle idea all the way through. What if the g/sons get ahold of it?

            Pat...have a great day.

            Off to get ready for work......PPQP

                hey all whizzing in before gym after work, headache depending

                Mick - thank you for taking the time - so much good stuff there - like idea of coded message on my phone and purse.I'm consciously thinking about good things that happen each day and today it was meeting my mentor and listing my strengths and what I've achieved to boost me.

                Other than that laundry and pottering,catch up TV and getting ready for spa day tomorrow - can't wait to chill,eat cake(out of my points) and generally be a right lazy bones but in a super healthy way.Then home for early bed(skipping gig OHs band playing in pub).

                Focusing on positives is key - so in no particular order, OH,cat,home,friends,parents alive and healthy, job where I'm learning and supported to learn, making progress with weight loss and eating better, new hair colour,spa membership which is a bargain, holidays to look forward to this year and seeing old friends in few weekends time,roller derby and friends from that and being physically able to skate and exercise(team mates are injured),money to buy healthy food and to treat myself.

                Have a great Thursday everyone xxxx

                  I'm just blown away by all your messages on this post and yesterday's have replied to some on yesterday's.Again I don't know how to say how touched I am - as a serial quitter - and also that you have all given me something really useful to mull over and seep into my bearbrain.
                  I don't drink.

                        Hi all - only just able to sign on today - busy meeting day - looked for thread and see it is already tomorrow afternoon!!! Hang on TT, I am not packed yet - will stay here so I can get my "to do" list done!
                        Leave Saturday (Ca time) morning so should check in here.
                        Promise not to drink - was just talking to a work colleague and she was talking as to how much fun it would be to get together over wine and I told her I wasn't drinking anymore...so, that does it - can't anymore:H I am so stubborn that I can't go back on my word!!!
                        Well doen Det on not straying.
                        Bear and Pauly - you are different women, so sorry for lumping you together, but you both sound so much more in charge of your lives now, I do think that a lot of this is about controlling your own destiny...
                        Well need to go wash my war paint off my face and relax for evening, see you tomorrow:l

                          ahoy ABerooonies!

                          just back from another dinner with the insane clown posse. declined the invite to hang out at the hospitality suite and I'm very much enjoying a rare moment of peaceful solitude. had a lovely rack of lamb and an odouls NA brew and I feel totally contented.

                          Lav, what did you do to your foot?

                          Pauly/Bear we aren't all pros here. I'm only on day 18. all I can say is that I'm very happy to be AF.

                          if all goes well I'll be home tomorrow night

                          TTops, I haven't seen 'wolf of wallstreet'. i think I'm behind on a few movies.

                          well, better get some rest. long day and long drive tomorrow.

                          YAH and SF around?

                          be well loves
