Aw Kelly :heart:

I can imagine how hard this is for you. There’s nothing worse than the waiting that’s involved with tests.

Is it okay if I ask when you last had a smear test done? I thought I’d ask as I had mine done recently and it just sprung to mind. It’s good to have it done, just for peace of mind.

Sending you big hugs lovely xx :people_hugging::people_hugging:

Oh I read about this rain you were to have in our news here. Apparently Scottish rail were telling people to not use transport due to the rainfall expected. I hope everyone stays safe over there x

Menno, amigx, these have been big life discoveries and explorations for you. It makes perfect sense to have big feelings come along side. Not that that makes it any easier. Adding insult to injury by falling ill is just a rotten piece of luck and I’m sorry that happened the way it did. You weathered that storm and fought through the darkness, I’m proud of you and grateful you did, too. You are loved so much. And I and so many of us are grateful you can share with us. Thank you and may today and beyond be lighter (and you get over this damn man flu!). Be well :heartpulse:

WOW – so lovely! Glad that you two were able to enjoy yourselves and have a delicious meal to boot!
@try2change I am sorry yesterday was such a struggle. How are you doing today? What were you able to do to quiet the urges? 76 days is amazing work :muscle:
@bomdhil how are you doing my friend? I am sorry to hear about being numb and sick. I do hope the weekend helps get you back to feeling better. 2 + days is great!
@danam56 HAPPY BIRTHDAY DANA :birthday: :tada: 111 days is also amazing – voila! You are crushing this sober thing. Glad you were able to celebrate with supportive friends.
@thewolf 5+ months is amazing and thank you for sharing your good news with us! Keep up the amazing work! :muscle: :clap:
@just_laura I am sorry about your ex. Playing the devils advocate – if it wasn’t out of spite then he would have told you. I am sorry that shit happened and grateful that your work cheered you up.
@mno Oh man Mno – sorry that you too are struggling with these urges. I would have to agree that the moon / stars may have something to do with it. I am so grateful for this community as when I feel these urges get stronger, I am able to come here and read how others are feeling the same and dealing with it. I suddenly don’t feel alone and know that I too can weather the storm. Thank you – I do hope today is a brighter day for you. :pray:
@wakikki Oh friend :hugs: I am so sorry to hear this. Grateful that he is and being looked after now. Sending healing vibes, strength and oh so much love your way :heart:

@starlight14 OH I’m so sorry Kelly – this does sound very un-nerving and I’m sending you big hugs as I know how anxious it can be not knowing. Our bodies do tend to do some funny things as we age (finding out a lot of it is normal) – its hard not to but try not to freak out – I do hope its nothing serious. I do hope all is well with the tests and that they are able to see you soon and get this sorted.
@Thumper1213 Way to go on your 2 months! :clap: :clap:

Checking in on Thursday afternoon
My goodness i do love how active this thread is. I had a very productive day yesterday cleaning the house and getting it ready for rental booking. I have one more day to go and mow, trim/edge and wash carpets (hope to finish on Monday). I was utterly exhausted and when i got home i couldn’t move a muscle - took a shower and ate cereal for dinner. I really just wanted to relax with wine or beer but instead drank nothing as my body could not get up (LOL). I was like a limp vegetable in front of the tv last night and I’m ok with that.
Grateful that all that work did not cause extra inflammation and i was able to get so much done. Today is a lovely day with mostly sitting work - about to make some GF pancakes with blueberries on top as this is what my body is craving.
Wishing everyone a wonderful addiction free day! Sending you all so much love :heart: :heart:

Checking in day 398 and last day of vacation! Got to the beach to relax yesterday, walked around to see the beautiful scenery, and went to bed early. Should be another day of relaxing and having some good food today. Still so grateful for vacations being refreshing instead of exhausting.

Hope everyone has a super sober Saturday :sparkles:

Checking in on the evening of Day 23, struggling again, struggling in general which I guess is the reason for the cravings. Objectively it has been a good day, and I have tried to work it off in the gym, but still now hiding away in bed. Hopefully this will pass. I have had a bath and got into pjs so no danger of drinking at least.

Hang in there Jenny, do you have a good book you could get lost in with a sleepy tea on the side.
