    heya ABers!

    Pauly, thanks for marking our spot and yes, hang tight to the dentist's chair.

    Mick, great to see you ever industrious and making neat things.

    AF and cranking away here between work and trying to tidy up the place. Dx comes home Sat am so I'll be
    picking her up then.

    Spending time doing some 'mirror work' which is a kind of self therapy done in front of the mirror. it's very interesting and hard
    to describe but I feel better already. Finally after more than a week the bad pinch in my lower back is subsiding so I'm super
    grateful for that.

    Sadly I didn't get any nifty pictures in Vegas, it was all work and very long days. I'll try to get some shots of the lovely winter landscapes next..... must concentrate on positive, healthy fun things lest my mind wander to darkness which is no good.

    wishing you great AF Thursdays all around

    be well loves

      Morning Pauly and Det! Thinking of you at the dentist's Pauly. Mirror work sounds interesting, Det, I'll have to look it up. PQ, prime rib is a favorite, but strikes me as too much of a big deal to make it. Maybe that's not so, since you don't seem to have that reluctance. What's your secret? Mick, nice touch on using the same tiles from your kitchen as an accent in the bathroom!

      Often, I'll feel a quick twinge of headache in the morning that takes me right back to all those mornings when I awoke physically ill, and with feelings of disgust/despair over continued drinking, and inability to stop. Like a muscle memory. I think this is a gift to keep me from forgetting!

        Hi folks. Thanks for starting us off Pauly. I will check on Mick. Good to see you Det and keep up the self-work. I use the mirror strictly for repair work and a dose of reality!
        Been a bit anxious lately but pushing on.
        My shoulder is healing and the liver pains have abated - just chasing the elusive sleep these days.
        You all be good and catcha later

            My wife's locked herself in the kitchen in a rage, after a massive argument over how miserable and tight I've become since we've been married.
            She's in there now, ripping all our paper plates in half.

            Five facts about You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You

            2. You didn't notice I put a Yoo.
            3. You are now looking to find out.
            4. You are laughing because you realize there is no 'Yoo' and you've been tricked.
            5. You are going to forward this to others who are like 'YOU'!
            I know at least 12 things about you now:
            1. You are holding your phone
            2. You are on facebook
            3. You just opened my status
            4. You are now reading it

              MAE ALL...

              Pauly...thanks for kicking us off this morning. Sounds like the dentist wasn't too bad and a wisdom tooth to boot.

              Det...hadn't heard of "mirror work", I too will be looking it up. Sounds like you're back in the swing of things and will be in good shape when Dx gets home. Good job!

              Pi...I actually find Prime Rib the easiest to cook, once I learned the trick. 20 mins per lb + 20 mins, comes out perfect every time. Nice way to look at the headache twinge...a gift.

              TT...good to hear you're pushing on. That's all we can really do. Glad the physical ailments are healing. Was the liver pain do to medication?

              Mick...and there you are. I must have been on the bottom half of the post. LOL No haggis in this house! Wow, I can't believe the dentist saga is coming to an end. Make sure you celebrate.

              Phone system finally fixed so no more early morning starts at work. Boss kicked me out at 3:30 said get out of here, you've been going flat out all week. Not being GM has made it onto my gratitude list. LOL .....:smile:PPQP

              ps...I didn't read all the you's.

                    TT, glad to hear you are feeling better.
                    Keep believing everything is going to turn out OK!

                    PQ, nice you are getting a little time off. I don't mind cooking if I have the time, ha ha!
                    I hope your prime rib was awesome!
