Hi Rob,


Just want to say hello, and see how you are doing, you stopped Posting, and hope you are o.k.


WE ALL want to hear from you. 


Your friend, Toni                                                                 


These early recovery days can be very difficult, so please just hang in there, and if by chance you fall, you just get back up and start over again.  We Miss you, I know I sure do!


Toni, you get the picture, o.k., I'm no artist, I admit it.

Maybe he is doing okay and just busy with other things,,,  but..  I'm like you, Toni,,,  I want to at least hear from my friends once in awhile to know how they are.  With my son it is at least once a week,,,  if it's longer I start to worry. My soldier friend in Afghanistan too...  but  guys are like that.


So, Rob, Mike, Chris, and all of you all,,,,,  humorous us women folk and just at least post a "hi, I'm fine" thingy. k?


love in recovery,


amanda

HA HA HA,


This one made me laugh so hard this morning.


O.k. Rob, now that I know you're doing O.k., I guess with your new girlfriend, (a full time job, all by itself), you don't need two new Mommies?  Right?


Forgive us, it's kind of instinctual,


And Phil, I am so happy to hear that things are looking a little better regarding your dissappointment.


I woke up this morning feeling pretty stressed out, think it has something to do with dealing with a lot pain in my neck area, actually, the pain is gone today, but felt like I just wasted two days, not doing anything but recovering  from a real sore neck. Missed my Friday meeting, that's it.


Did go directly to Prayer this morning, asking Him to help calm me down, need to make a Gratitude List, in a big hurry, so I can get back on track.


A Big Hug to all of you, Amanda, that was so cute, made me smile a lot, and I wish you well with your project today,  Easy Does it..........Why can't we remember that one, well I forget it too many times in the day, and then there are the consequences of forgetting that.  


Well, we are all here and accounted for, no one is Drunk, so that means it is a Good day, no way more than a good day, a Glorious Day that God has made.


Now my body is feeling aligned, and my Spirit is feeling Aligned, so to all of you, Happy Saturday, and I am so glad that all of you on this MIP Board are here, thank you for that.


A Big Hug, Toni

well,, I don't know,,,  do we know for sure that Rob is okay and busy with a new girlfriend? did he tell someone that?  or is that what we are guessing?


About being 'mommy',,,  and 'caretaker',,,  I am not...  I don't need any adult kids, and no more codependencies...  but..  I do care enough to think about and want to know how people are. One thing is I've got this guy in Afghanistan being a soldier,, and I've got Christian friends in Pakistan and Iraq that are natives to those lands,,, and they know that I need to hear from them or I start to worry. They don't mind..  they might tease about it,,  but they are glad someone cares. I told the soldier in Afghanistan that if I didn't hear from him about once a week that I would do a 'saving Private Ryan' thing,, so don't be surprised if I popped up in his camp looking for him..   he laffed,, and he does pop on once a week to let me know how he is. I like to know someone cares enough about me to ask about me if I don't show up for awhile. Don't want my body to rot for 5 days before the stink gets so bad somebody calls the cops.


Have a great day y'all.  And don't forget to let me know how you are before 2 weeks is up,,  or don't be surprised ... 


love in recovery,


amanda

OMG..lol


I dont have a girlfriend..lol..  Iv got a new internet friend, we have both kinda bonded..  Talked world olympic style..  She is great and is probably the main reason iv stayed off the drink this week, infact its not been as hard as it should have been.. Somehow iv been able to connect to my higher power and all that, probably because we understand eachother which in this day and age i find quite rare.  She has drink problems too so we can both totaly relate.  I dont bleve in fate but its been pretty f***ing close to it. 


Anyway now thats cleard up..  Thank you  guys, toni, michelle, amanda and everyone who commented. Im sorry i havent been posting.. I have been kinda busy..  I wil try to post more often..  I dont wana keep postin too often like im hogging the lime light..  


I dont see anyone as another mum lol, though i appreciate the gesture, and i wouldnt put that sort of thing upon anyone.  Thanx for the big sis thing though michelle   


Iv actualy been feeling abit guilty towards you guys because i seem to come on to this site fairly breifly.... i make a post, I.M a couple of people then bugger off..  I havent been paying attention to other peoples posts as much as i feel i possibly should..  We are all in the same boat, ok im newer to this site than most you guys and have been dry for only a short time by comparison.. ******1 week now******(longest time since october, cant rem if i was dry for a week then or not) but i would like to think i could offer you guys some support/hope too.


Last couple of nights i have felt abit like drinking.  My net friend has been ill and not been online hardly at all..  But do you know one of the things that stopped me from drinking.. is that well you guys knew i was up to like 5 days and if i had drank then id have to say i was back to 0 again and didnt wana have to tell ya, and like let your hopes down.. ya know


I went to my best mates engagement party tonight, sober.  not as hard as it may sound im used to drinking at home, easier not to drink out sometimes.. But alot of the evening i felt like a stuffed lemon sat not talking to many people cos didnt know that many people, but id had my kalms and was fairly relaxed and the fact it was my 7th night without drink my confidence was high enuf for me to enjoy my mates do..  his girlfriend.. sorry fiancee, is realy nice, i dont know her too well but from what i do know i like her.. . hes had some really sh*tty girlfriends in the past and im so pleased that hes found someone nice.  So it was agood night.  I had felt beforehand that i would have realy liked to stay in tonight and drink and play on my ps2, surf the net and watch a dvd.. . But obv i didnt.. and i can start my first sunday this year, i think,  sober.


Anyway thats me rattling on enuf.. I really hope you guys are ok.. And that things arent too bad.. feel free to IM me any time.  I will try to make more of an effort to read your posts.. I have just been abit self envolved lately... which im sure you can understand..


I dare say i will drink again some day.. but i didnt today, nor the last 6 days either and hopefully i wont tomorrow...


Thanx again you guys,  you're all fantastic people.. Take care..


Rob

HiThere Rob,


Congratulations, it has been a difficult week, and you have pulled right through it.


As far as the future, who know what that holds, this is Just a 24 hour Program, just have to do today, not tomorrow.  Thats the great Relief of this Program. They even have a saying that 24 hours is the Record in this Program.  An accumulation of time, does not have a whole bunch of meaning to me, no one ever knows what tomorrow might bring.


So thanks for checking in, and this Sunday will feel pretty special to you, I hope it a great day!


Post when you can, and have the time, and you are never "hogging" the board, as you put it, we love hearing about your progress, and the Response you made earlier to the person that is trying to stop, I think probably had more impact than any of us could have. 


And I was just kind of joking about that mom stuff, I like the sister and brother stuff a lot more.


Well hope this note finds you feeling pretty good about what you accomplished. Those first days and weeks are the most difficult for all of us, thats how I remember it.


A Great Big hug to you,   Toni
