NYE, flu still clinging a bit. No health insurance so just riding it out. Actually got some pretty good sleep. I’m going to try to spend some time at the office for sanity reasons. My 14 yo loves going there. Need to think of something nice to do with her tonight. I’m so uncreative, so I’m stumped. Been thinking on it for weeks.
Thank you Jane. It is sad that a few people can troll around on here claiming free speech and fun and silliness when they are fostering divisiveness and rude behavior. I can only surmise that they require drama to feel or are unhappy in their real life.
This forum is open to anyone wanting help. Even those who are not well socialized or unkind. Taking potshots is unbecoming and allowing things to just play out is perhaps the best policy.
Even as a moderator, I find the mute a thread option very helpful. As a reminder, we also have ignore user available to us.
Looking forward to a sober 2020 and hope that the trolls go find a new sandbox.
Checking in with a couple weeks under the belt. 7am Recovery Dharma meeting this morning. Tonight I’ll be having a game night with the In-Laws and nephews to ring in the New Year and my birthday. Turning the big 35 tomorrow. Hope everyone enjoys their holiday in whatever way is best for them.

Me very tired of Sassy. I tell Citizen Sass in a message that she intiated “shame on you” for moving threads.
She then calls me mean and tells me not to contact her again. I request the same of her. (But you contacted me)
Then:
I am reading your childhood crush thread, enjoying myself looking at pics of Leif Garrett and then I see that someone got offended and ran to Citizen Sass who deleted the offensive material.
I said good grief. She said double good grief and then my thread started.
What I really wanted to ask was how milk toast are you that you became offended in the Childhood Crush thread.
My thread started.
Lastly
And now the Childhood Crush thread has a fucking disclaimer in the title. WTF and I am the troll:flushed:
Uhhmnn… I didn’t flag anything, but as a Brit, I do understand what went on. Someone posted a pic of the most horrible woman he could think of, as a joke, in the childhood crush thread. She (the woman he posted) and her partner abducted, tortured, taped and killed little kids. Not funny.
This is a sobriety forum first and a fun socializing place second. I’m sure there are plenty of other forums you could frequent that are more aligned with what you’re looking for.
Keep the faith @Hippocrates! If you walk the path, you’ll get where you need to go. There may be highs and lows but you’re making progress. No recovery is perfect, none of us are saints.
