Today is my last day of work in a 12 day stretch. I like work, it keeps me out of trouble. Tomorrow I will see my family to celebrate my Mom’s 80th birthday. I finally feel ready to meet my family with kindness and openness, no more hiding. I’ll start the day with coffee and a work-out and I’ll end it sober.

Trying to unwind a bit from this week’s news.
Watching a series ‘the replacement’ and being happy that I tidied up at least. My apartment reflected my inside.

Time to celebrate! I’m doing the usual stuff, watching the Voice of Finland, but this time with cake, the last piece from last weekend, when I celebrated my 42nd birthday (amongst other things 
@Olivia ). But also, we’re finally in a position where I was able to book an appointment in the bank, so we can FINALLY get the inheritance split, and close the bank accounts. It’s been a long struggle, but now it really looks like it’s gonna be done. Fucken finally!!!

It’s friday again TS folks!
What are you doing on your sober friday?
Mine is half over, it’s already lunchtime here. Was up on time, did chores, pets and laundry, had breakfast in the spring sun. Will do more chores, office work and pet snuggling in the afternoon. Planning early bed time because fresh linen is waiting for me …

Just finished my Friday morning coffee 
I’m only working an hour today before I have the rest of the day off for vacation day with my kiddo. We’ll dress in green today for St. Patrick’s Day 
then maybe a lunch trip out before his haircut appointment this aft. Maybe a trip to the library.
It’s above freezing today and it’s to rain quite a bit. Should make a nice muddy mess when the snow melts! Lots of muddy dog paw prints are expected in the house 
Happy sober weekend, all!

My three day weekend is here yay! Already took Luna 
to the vet 
to have her ears 
checked after her ear infection that caused her to wobble badly a month ago. Happy to say her ears are looking a lot better. Also finished force feeding her AB 
yesterday. Better for the both of us 
. And finally her nails 
were clipped so she can sneak up on me at 3 am instead of sounding like she’s wearing high heels on the wooden floor.
Sorry for turning this into a pet thread post. In other weekend news it is seriously warming up outside, too bad there’s some rain around. Still going outside to feel spring approaching. As I will tomorrow and Sunday. Otherwise not too much planned. Sleep 
. Prepare and eat food 
. Watch some March Madness 
, Six Nations rugby (go Ireland) 
, Milan - San Remo 
, and of course some football 
. Spend some time here. That’s probably about it. Sorry for turning this into a sports thread 
. Have a great weekend all!

I have a (welcome) quiet day at work, I’ll be done around noon. Then it’s time for a 2-hr massage.
Incorporating it as part of my lifting/running recovery program. Found a great masseuse who has a firm grasp on physiology and the nervous system. Knows his stuff. Great first session 2 weeks ago.
It’s pricey, but I’m framing it as an investment in my long-term health which is what my life is all about.

Spring is teasing me…I’m enjoying the sunshine today but these 20 deg temps aren’t fun anymore! Especially after a warm up and most of the snow melting. So this Friday involves staying warm inside. No plans to go anywhere or do much, just the usual watch a movie or two and cuddle up.
