It's going up to 40 today...woo hoooooo!!!!!! break out the grill! One more month and Spring...ahhhhhhh....it is such a miracle how the earth renews itself after the ground is frozen and the trees look dead....and people say they don't believe in a higher power? There is a power in all living things and we can tap into it if we truly believe....the power which created all this can certainly help us to help ourselves to be in control of of our lives,sober, healthy, and happy. I know God is helping me....but I must take the necessary steps. I wake up feeling like crap until my 1/2 pill and coffee...but 2 months ago I was waking up sweating and way worse....I am getting better and starting to think clearly...I crave sobriety now.....the sound of it makes me so happy. I will get there and it will a great day when I can post it here for all you great folks to read. Thanks for all your ongoing support....it truly gets me through the day. have a great day.....Sharonn P.S. Ever have a weak-a** cup of coffee in the A.M.? That's enough to make me nuts!!! I must have that one strong HOT cup with real milk LOL!!!
Sharon, Hang in there girl. You are trying so hard and are doing a great job. Your day will come. I do have a question for you. What other avenues are you going to try for the pain after you are off the pills? I know for me after I got off oxys for my back I found P.T. exercises helped with the pain alot. Have a great day. Shantel
I have to get back to swimming...it is the one thing that doesn't hurt. My tens unit is a blessing! I wore it all day yesterday and my back didn't hurt while it was on. Most days it's nerve pain in the legs and feet. But I pulled my back out after the storm so it is sore....a herniated disk on top of my rods and I am NOT having more surgery. I used to go to a lot of AA meetings with my younger sister...I got a lot out of them...NA turned me off...guess I didn't find the right group. I watched it change her life...went to all the picnics and anniversaries...it was inspiring...I may go again. It is important to have a plan to kep us sober and honest for sure. This board is one thing I do...thank you Shantel...Love, Sharonn
Sharon, Shantel,
Good morning!
What kind of tens unit do you have, Sharon?
Good going for sticking to your taper. You know, if you preferred AA meetings to NA, there's no reason not to go to the former. An addict is an addict is an addict...
Have a good one, ladies,
Love,
Gina

Hey guys Morning from the frozen tundra. I can't wait for the day I can actually put my garage door down without it going back up automatically. The friggin snow keeps getting stuck under it AH. Sharon I just had the best cup of coffee. I just started drinking coffee since I never liked the taste but I now put in a bag of double chocolate hot chocolate and mix it YUM!!!!
Just reordered all my vitamins its nice not to have to be home to sign for it lol. I just started taking a gh releaser we had been taking hgh and liked it. I am not sure if it is the placebo effect but I do find the vitamins and supplements are definitely giving more energy. Today we will be tackling the basement. The kids in the neighborhood all play down there. It is unfinished and they love to ride all the bikes down there the problem is it sands the floor down (the concrete) and then the dust get everywhere and when the come upstairs and walk on the hardwood floors it becomes a MESS!!! Drives me insane. So I will be shop vacing and then pouring water and bleach everywhere. This should be fun
Hope everyone has a terrific Tuesday

Where do ya'll live??
Obviously I'm from the south. Georgia. I love winter, I'd love to live somewhere cold, I'm serious! Have ya'll heard of SAD? Seasonal Affective Disorder? I have the opposite - I'm all about fall and winter. I actually lived in Houston for a while - OH MY GOD - it was so hot, humid, muggy, endlessly, endlessly I was miserable. Is anyone from Boston? I lived in Newton, Mass. Is anyone from Alaska? It's my dream to go there. I don't know if it's ok if I ask where everyone's from - if not, no one has to answer, I don't know all the proper protocal yet. Anyway - just giving you a different perspective on winter!

Chicago and winter sucks.
Iola,
What part of GA do you live in?? I'm in Macon.

Morning everyone! I am so done with winter!!! For over 40 years I have endured the cold, snow and blowing wind with icicles in it so hard that it stings when it hits your face. Usually the only body part that would be exposed would be the eyes.....so cold that they would frozen open! Not a pretty sight.
Now if I ever get a hankering for snow I know where I can go to get a little skiing in...beyond that...I will never pick up another snow tool as long as there is breath in my body!!! whew...thanks for letting me get that out! LOL
What I need now is motivation, I am so tired this morning and am moving rather slowly..this is not good! I have so much to do...all I can do at the moment is stare at the stack of paperwork on my desk....beckoning me to come and deal with it! I love my job and the fact that I can do a conference call in my Jammies....but today "god please grant me the discipline that I am so desperately needing"
I love the quietness of the morning when everyone has gone....just the sounds of Hawaii in the background...the various chirping critters.....
Its gonna to be a busy day! I am on my 3rd MUG of kona coffee...with no real "kick" yet!!! Help please...send me some motivation!!! I am begging you!!

Truer words were never said Thumper!
Afternoon all,just taking a half hour break from work,then i get my sweet baby grandson for a couple hours this evening.
Sharon...i am so happy reading the joy/up;ifting spirit in your post.Youre a nice lady! I hope everything works out exactly as you plan it to.~KIM
PS~must post a pic of my grandson in the tubby with his ducky...if no one objects...he IS naked?~KIM
Goos to all....I'm lagging behind today...I woke up at 3 with another sore throat and got up by 4:45 and made some tea. So I crawled back into bed and caught up on sleep until 11. My throat isn't really sore but I have big blister looking things on the back of my tongue and they hurt and make it hard to swallow. I wish I would just get real sick for a few days and get this out of my system....but no, I have to drag it out!
Kim would love to see your grandbaby!
I hope everyone has a good day today, the forecast says that it's supposed to be around 72 but I don't think we will make it, it's very overcast.
Sharonn, you are sounding so uplifted and positive! I am very proud of you!
Kim would love to see your grandbaby!

Awwww, he is soooo precious...I love the feel of baby fuzz against your lips and nose...and the smell! Nothing like it. I can hardly wait to meet my little granddaughter in June!
Awe Kim! I can almost smell the baby scent...if I close my eyes real tight and let those thoughts flow...I swear it smells like Johnsons baby wash in here!
What a cute little guy! You are so proud! How lucky he is to have you!
