    hi det ..hows you ?did you go for the Italian?..you sound a lot cheerier well done you...safe trip home today

    hiya ppqp.....oops whats going on at work then?somethin gettin on your wick that youve got to re invent the sweary fred!!! glad the eye is getting better anyway....

    hey nana p....hows you today then?smiley head on??gooooood..just for you ..your own speshul hairdresser jokes

    A blonde is sick of being labled a 'dumb blonde' so goes to the hairdressers to buy a brunette wig.
    "How much are they?" she asks.
    "£30 plus the tax"' replies the hairdresser.
    "Fck the tax," she replies, "I'll use glue.."

    The other day I asked my hairdresser if I could have highlights,and he showed me a video of past haircuts.

    Granny goes to the hairdresser and gets her hair cut really short. When she gets home, Little Johnny, her grandson, says:

    "Granny, that's marvellous! You don't look like an old woman any more!"

    "Thank you, Johnny," says Granny. "That was a lovely thing to say. What do I look like now?"

    "Like a fecking old man."

    A hairdresser asked me out today. I'd never go out with a hairdresser though - they always talk about you behind your back.

    I've always wanted to be a hairdresser and one day when I was cutting a guys hair he turned round and asked,"What are you doing?". I replied,"What's the matter?" "Am I doing it wrong?"

    He replied,"No,I'm waiting for the bus, fck off"

    have a great day.....

    hiya bear ...hows you feeling today then?hopefully better..hey just cos youve stopped drinkin...doesnt necessarily mean the world is all a beautiful place...what it does do tho..is enable you to make balanced unclouded judgements on a specific course of action to take in addressing particular issues.....ie take yours for example....day not going too well..things starting to build up...Tada solution time...easy ..."feck it ...cant be arsed ...wheres me jammies" :hahaha: have a great day...

    hiya pie...hows you today then? condo all gleamy shiny then??time for white glove inspection then is it?top of door frame,corner of window sill ,corner of bedframe,under the sink basin behind the tap....Not too late for lillies ..got to split them yet........and just for you Don McClean (get it??)

    A snail comes across a leprechaun in the forest. The leprechaun takes pity on the snail, slithering on its belly, and decides to grant it a wish. The snail can’t believe its luck. ‘I’d like a sports car,’ it says, ‘with a giant golden “S” painted on the doors and bonnet.’ The leprechaun waves his hand, and the car magically appears. The snail is beside itself with excitement and climbs in. It revs the engine up, puts the car into gear and speeds off through the forest. All the other animals gather to watch him career through the trees. ‘Look at that crazy “S” car go.’

    How do snails keep their shells shiny? Snail varnish.

    How do you know your kitchen floor is dirty? The slugs leave a trail on the floor that reads ‘clean me’!

    What did the slug say as he slipped down the wall? How slime flies!

    What did the slug say to the other slug who had hit him and run off? I’ll get you next slime!

    The Council road sweeper did our street last Tuesday. As I came back from town I caught him stamping on a snail.

    "Whatever did that poor defenseless creature do to harm you?" I asked.

    "You what?" He said, "that bugger's been following me about all day."


    What did the snail say while riding on the turtle’s back? Weeeeeeeeee!!!!!!!

    What do you do when two snails have a fight? Leave them to slug it out!

    What sort of animal is a slug? A snail with a housing problem!

    What was the snail doing on the motorway? About one mile a day!

    Where do you find monster snails? On the end of its fingers.

    A snail is returning home late at night and has to cut though a dark alley. As he is passing though, he is mugged by two slugs.
    Later on at the police station, the officer asks him, "Can you give me a description of the assailants?"
    The snail ponders this for a moment and then replies, "Gee, I'm not sure... it all happened so fast."

    hiya Lav ...how are you today?big brew for you....hope all is well your end ...

          Good morning Abbers

          Snail varnish - good one Mick!!
          Glad to hear Sandy is doing well which means you are doing well too! Hope you have fun today with everything you have planned.

          Sam, my son works in DC, drives fire trucks in DC so I have heard all about the insane traffic! Hope you have a good day

          Pie, have a great visit with your Dad!

          Pauly, I'll just go ahead & grow some of those personal sized, round watermelons for you & ship them to you, LOL
          The kids really enjoyed them last summer! I think you need to figure out how to garden in the shade perhaps.

          I'm running late, time to get to Curves so I'll check in later.
          Have a great AF day everyone!

                Hey Pauly, I was just listening to a Bubble Hour podcast; NS posted a link in another thread. You might find it really interesting right about now, I sure did. Guy talks about how long it takes people to get a sustained, continuous year of remission. He says on average, it takes 8 years, from the first time a person seeks help to stop drinking. He says we don't lose the experience of being sober that we had before a relapse. Let me go find the link, and add it here for you, before I start paraphrasing incorrectly.

                Here it is: The BubbleHour

                Doesn't look like I did that right. Try this http://www.thebubblehour.com/2014/04...-changing.html

                  You're such a sweetheart Pie I've been here for too long to be struggling like this, think I need to resort to antidepressants which kills me inside but it's better than drinking I guess, I've tried SO hard this time, and I wonder if I just would have napped and blew it off,if the thought would have gone away, this really blows

                    Aw Pauly :hug: It may help if you start journaling. "sheesh been thinking about booze for 2 weeks straight......" When I went through this phase (and it is a phase - while you're retraining your brain, which takes time!) I would just write down the talking that was going on in my head. It didn't have to make sense or be organized, just a list of the talk. It would wear me out and get me over the craving that was threatening to move me to action. But what I found was when the talking started up again a lot of what was on my list wasn't there anymore. Never quit quitting!

                    Pi...had a quick peek at the link and intend on going back. Thanks for sharing.

                    Mick...our printing company goofed on the May's edition of our Newsletter and the backlash from residents has been unreal. Good time for Boss #1 to be on holidays don't you think. All's good though and I'm sure you're glad to have Sandy home.

                    Waves to all I haven't addressed but this puppy is going to bed. Have a peaceful evening all and all to check in......:smile:PPQP

                      Hey Pauly, just start again ~ please do not drag this out longer than one day.
                      Try the Bubble Hour podcast, I've listened to some of them & they are really good.
                      It's important for all of us to remember that thoughts are just thoughts & we don't have to believe them or act on them. Simply recognize for what they are & then push them out of your head. It helped me to stop whatever I was doing & go do something completely different. Distracting myself that way worked. Just keep trying :hug:

                      bear, this book was a big help to me 5 years ago when YB did his unexpected runner. Take a look at the website, it may be of help to you as well.


                      PQ, how come you can't keep the printing company under control while standing on your head with your hands tied behind your back?? Ha ha!!! Hope you have a peaceful night!
