:bday7: Dear Mary,


I wish you a day as beautiful as you are and a night with moonbeams but no Jim Beams. You have been such an inspiration to me ever since I found this board. How like you to be celebrating your friend's birthday on your own!:day4:

Happy Birthday Mary and Rachele (sorry I missed you yesterday too Rachele) - I LOVE YOU GUYS!!!!!
Hope you guys have had (and are continuing to have) a great day!
And hello and hugs to all.
I hope everyone has had a nice holiday break and are well rested etc. (I am sorry if I have missed a lot - have not been on board the past few days so I need to catch up).
Has anyone found this season to be hard?? I have found this holiday break to be very hard. I have gone overboard a couple of times and have been tempted on other occassions as well. In the past few days, with New Years coming up etc. and having the days off, I have found this very very hard and temptations are extremely high I hate to say. I have managed to not have too much (ONLY because hubby has monitored it against my will....). I am hoping its just the spirit of the season and the time off that is causing this....
Ugh I started back on topa again - I am on 50mg as of today.
Love you all
Jen

Hey Jen, good to see you back! I love you too. It is such a crazy tough time, if I hadn't been sick I think I would be working my way at least to daily drinking.

Lush, sweetie, thanks for your friendship and love, you mean so much to me.

Fan, you are so sweet and funny!

Dilayne, sorry you all have been sick. Something pretty nasty has been going around.

Waves, hang in there, I wrote you in the other thread but Jen has hit it on the head. We get past these next few days into the new year and I think we will all have a bit different perspective.

Paul, Paula, PP, Soccermom Mary, Lucky, Lori, Hawk - I appreciate and love you all!

Judie, sunshine? we totally have had nonstop snow since early morning, gray white sky heavy with snow. It is sticking to the point where we may not get to go out to the restaurant tonight. This is the second time in the 15 years we have lived Stateside that I got to have the kids here for my birthday so I would really love to see them this evening but not at health risks so . . wait and see. How is that camper doing in the water? River still high?

Was a very nice tea and she was so excited. Now I am going to head home as my January client is not coming through with those gazillion hours and I get so few days off.

Thanks for the great wishes and all the special fonts and graphics everyone came up with!

Hugs and Love,
Mary

Bummer. Just found out about that the couple of climbers they've been searching for in China. They're from near Telluride. Charlie used to be on the ski patrol there, used to see him around town all the time & up on the Mt skiing. I guess they found his body yesterday. Haven't found Chris yet. At least they were doing something they loved, but still so sad.
Boy he is going to be greatly missed.

You can google on Charlie Fowler and Chris Boskhoff to get the story. They were a great team.:h
