I’m visiting the Ben & Jerry’s factory next month in Vermont. I get to eat all the free ice cream I can stomach (I hope)

There used to be a neat antique shop across from it, fun to peruse. Also, be sure to hike (if that’s your thing, sorry I cannot remember what you told me) up Mansfield and wander around the summit…it is lovely…and chilly next month! Likely snow. Tho I guess having the kids with you (?), that particular hike might not be feasible. If there isn’t snow on the ground, the bike path in Stowe is a lovely walk or cc ski. They also have horse drawn carriage rides in snow. I miss that place so much. If you get over the mountain into Underhill, that’s my old town.

I think you underestimate my ability to haggle. It’s amazing the things I have been able to get by just asking for them. I anticipate this will be no different lol.

No kids, and we will probably just stick to the recreation trail in the valley. I would love to do a Mansfield hike, but we are trying to get some relaxing in to. I’ll keep working on it though.

Well, you can try. But I am pretty sure it is the tiny spoon for you.

It is a really lovely trail. Beautiful mountain views.

Haha :joy::joy: My favourite ice cream (if I rarely eat one) in Finland tastes ammonium chloride. Maybe that would be close?

Awesome! Sounds fun…gotta give us a breakdown of the tour

I’ve just ordered the smart recovery handbook, in trying to use every available tool. I’ll let your know if I find it helpful. They have online classes aswell as I know they don’t have a smart meeting near to you. :+1::slightly_smiling_face:

Not doing so well. Started drinking again. Feeling terrible about it. My mind and my feelings are everywhere, gliding between a destructive spectrum a victim spectrum. Feeling like a fraud and unworthy in every way.

Just have to start all over again at day 1.

You are not unworthy! You are worth fighting for!! Dust yourself off, maybe try to determine what made the relapse happen and learn from it. Please don’t give up on yourself. We’re here cheering you on!
