  1. Ms. Monkey and her daughter are on a small vacation in florida. I get to babysit her dog, 18 yr old boy and watch the house. The dog doesnt seem to mind. The dog snores like a motorcycle and farts non stop when she sleeps.

Just missed it @C_8 :crazy_face:


Anyway checking in. This is the last pic I ever took of me and my mom together. I thought I’d put it on my TS app. Not bad for 88.
Not much going on.
My DIL @CATMANCAM got her results back and they got all the margins of the melanoma they removed from her chest. Thank you God :pray::heart:
Snow in the forecast for the next 3 or 4 days. What the hell happened to early spring.
Grateful I got my first Covid shot Monday.
I’m sober.

Let’s stay sober, just for today folks.
Remember
We think we might get a kick out of the first few drinks. But how about the let down, the terrible depression and shame that WILL come the morning after
:pray::heart:

@TSan My heart goes out to you. It’s not easy but sometimes it’s best to cut ties with parents when they can’t respect boundaries. My Mother is a narcissist and it took several therapy sessions to feel comfortable with letting her go. It wasn’t an easy road for me but her shit doesn’t effect me like it used to because I let go. Hope you can erect some boundaries and give yourself the respect you deserve.
@MagicILY & @Drave Congratulations on triple digits.
@dalex77 5 months is awesome.
@MrsOdh Happy belated birthday
@anon60334405 WHOOP WHOOP 400 days. Absolutely LOVE seeing this.
@Dan531 Congratulations on 500 days.
@Rockstar24777 You are going through so much it’s unbelievable but you’re staying sober and I’m so proud of you.
@zzz Congratulations on 3 months. Obviously AA is working as you’re working it.
@Tommo Dam I missed you and am so glad to have you back.

267 days. Mind is stuck thinking about employment. Followed up on the interview I had in February to find out they hired someone internally. Had an interview for an administrative position on Monday and everything about the position is good except the pay. Things look good though as I’ve been playing phone tag with the manager since last night. I know I need something as I need to get out of this house or I’ll be sitting on remand for attempting to murder a roommate!! When we were heading home from the hotel yesterday I was in tears as I had this awful feeling about not wanting to go home. I honestly hope the owner of this house finds a buyer and we have to move. Maybe at that point the two extras can find their own place to live as I’m truly getting sick of them living here.

Day 272 clean and sober today. Thank you everyone for all of your support that you give me everyday it’s amazing and I truly appreciate it. My oxygen level will not stay at normal levels without the use of Oxygen so I’ll be staying longer. I don’t mind staying at all, I’d rather have difficulties here than at home. I believe I’m getting a CT Scan today to check for a possible blood clot in my lung which may be the cause of the lack of oxygen. Thank you again everyone I love you guys :sunglasses::metal:t2:

Good qs, I feel off today tattoo really took it out of me. I’m wanting to escape some sort of feelings, I know drinking won’t really help tho, I know one sip of alcohol and you guys will never here from me again. And deep inside I don’t want that

Maybe it helps sharing those feelings here?
We all have those fuck it moments. The art is not to fuck it up. That’s why we’re all here Mike.

Hey Mike; just wanted to pipe in and say I know what you’re feeling; I had my girls here talk me off the ledge a few times. It’s just our habit and we know it’s trying to get us back in that old habit that we’re so comfortable in but so bad in every other aspect of our lives.
I’m glad you didn’t; I hope they take more effort at your home to not have it so blatantly in sight.
Hugs sweetie…

It’s not mine to pour out lol. My uncle would jack my ass up. But I let them know it was bugging me and they moved it
