@RosaCanDo Love the snow pics! None here but I really enjoyed the stars and the cold air when I went out to fire the furnace in the dark morning.
@HoofHearted Sending love and good vibes to you & wife. Transition episodes are hard to pass and need a authentic focus on yourselfs and an open mind. Whatever will be, stay tuned and don’t forget that a gut feeling is a valid input. For today it’s 
to be just you.
@Englishd You crack me up, I laughed louder than I should. God am I grateful those times are behind me. I hear you

Gosh thanks! I was looking for a snowsuit and vintage was cheaper and more fun. I just ran through 8 inches of snow in it.

Well I am pleased to say I half white knuckled / half processed a very very hard Friday.
I used to feel around my mom that I was giving a load of good and positive solutions to what was always negative vitriol, bad vibes and constant critical thinking. I would try my hardest all the time to spin it to sound better, and in the end I had nothing left anymore to give as nothing I did was enough or pleasing. She just turned into this negative swamp of sorrow that I knew I had to walk through some days… I’m thinking of the never ending story now, I digress.
But you know when you kind of even bore yourself with the rut you are in. That me.
I made it through Friday safely, via the gym for a run and also a swim. Kind of proud of my self to be honest.

Thanks Jasmine. I got to 14 months + sober so I do know that it all starts falling into place! I don’t know why this time Its harder.

My thinking is that your addict mind knows that you are capable of being sober and is fighting harder this time around.
Each time I would quit smoking the next time was so much worse in getting back and staying in quit mode.

Mmmm good thought. The strange thing is how tight alcohol has me. I decide to vape on and off these days… Mostly off 95% of the time. But I can pick it up and drop it easily.

I’m late to the friday thread, it’s almost over here.
What a day!!! I’m not sure if there’s a similar term in English: We have a term called Heiteres Bezirksgericht refering to funny/idiotic/ surreal/ nonsense trials at the local court level.
I had my episode today. Back to square one with the expertise on the market value. The expert annoyed the judge, this idiot couldn’t even explain correctly on what he based his report in the 1st - FIRST - question that my ex’ lawyer presented 
Well, the judge was not amused about the comment " I always do it this way!". Not the best argument in court when your report must contain valid values.
So this expert was fired, the judge mumbled that the choice to appoint this expert was a grasp into the loo (phrase literally translated 
) and he will appoint another one to make a new expertise on the market value of the farm.
YEAH, another year down with no settlement and no end in sight
More costs.
I really hope for my idiotic ex he finds some dumbass to pay the lunatic amount of money he thinks the farm is worth. My lawyer told them, in this case I would sell the next day with a kiss on the hand
So I was surrounded by idiots in the morning, had a rest at the farmhouse to heat and go through the post and a lovely afternoon with hours of eating and chatting with a friend. I even stopped by at a party from other friends for an hour before I drove home and fell into my beloved cozy bed where I sort out the day with purring cats on and around me.
If I could draw, my grim sense of humor would make a comic of this whole idiotic way to separate finances in divorce. If someone is familiar with the Clever & Smart comics … I see parallels
Have a good sober friday folks whatever you are doing or have done

My favorite drink day of the week, and I made it through number 2 of them sober… woohoo
Wife and I looked at some larger 5th wheel travel trailers at an RV show today then began planning our next phase of retirement and moving back to BC a year this summer.
I thought she may wish me to build her a house on our cabin property, but she says she loved the idea of a good sized travel trailer, hanging at property in BC for spring and summer and hitting the road travelling in fall and perhaps head south in winter.
Such a great day as that is what I really wish to do. Stay mobile, explore, hike, enjoy life and the outdoors!!
Hope you all had a great day as well

Happy Friday folks. I’m halfway through my work shift and the next two days are mine.
Tomorrow one of my friends is coming over for a mending party (nope for real). She is my craftiest friend and will bring her basket of mending so we can chat and patch up some holes in jeans, fix seams and maybe, just maybe I’ll learn how to use my sewing machine. I’m going to cook butter chicken and spanikopita.
Sunday is the Lions day in our house. Quick confession, before I met my husband I was a sportsball girl. That’s right, I low key mocked people who got enjoyment out of watching sports. I think I was just young and sure I was the coolest. Now I get it AND I realize that it is pretty much the lowest form of loathsome to mock something someone really enjoys. My husband has been a Lions fan since he was a kiddo so Sunday is exciting for him. I’ll wear a jersey and eat chicken wings (my favorite part). Happy weekends to all, drinking is for dopes.

Happy Friday. I’m done with work for the day and about to settle down for several hours of gaming. My partner messaged me today to let me know that the next Final Fantasy 7 remake game won’t be released on the PS4. I told him that clearly it is time to invest in a PS5. I got no push back on that (didn’t expect any).

Happy Friday gang!
I actually got a lot of work done today!
I am pretty sure the polar vortex has left town, while we still have snow on the ground, the ice had melted from the trees. It was fun while it lasted.
Not much going on in my world tonight, just about to throw some lasagna in the oven, eat dinner, and then repair to my chambers where I will enjoy some unadulterated television streaming services!
