Good am,

How are ya'll doing? Great I hope. How was your Thursday? Ours was good really. I was out of it as I took meds which made me pretty loopy for the better part of the day but my back/neck are better and I rested some. Go figure. Got chores done, got in our nature time and the girls looked like mud pie babies by the time night was drawing near. Showers ordered immediately followed by The Spiderwick Chronicles and a fight over who's sleeping where. Grrr love them but they sleep like alien's and 3 of us in one king size bed is just hilarious figuring I'm the biggest yet they hog the WHOLE thing and I'm in a ball in the corner! Love my buggas I do!!!

What's on the books for your Friday/weekend? Today I'm celebrating 11 MONTHS SOBRIETY and am so incredibly thankful and grateful. Then there are more chores and a few errands along with going with my sister this pm to try on dresses. There's a gig tonight I considered attending but not thinking its working at it this point. For Saturday I'm hoping to get out in nature and spend tme with the buggas. Sunday more of the same. Hoping for a low key weekend and enjoying the time outside with my girls. They are really very special and creative and have been putting on puppet shows this week among other things. I HEART IT & THEM!

Hope everyone has a GREAT Friday & weekend!

Congratulations on your 11 months! And I am glad you are feeling better and hoping you have a great weekend.

 

As for me, I have FFP meeting in Charlottesville tomorrow, then I am pretty much doing errands and catching up on projects most of the weekend. Chruch and all of the regular stuff on Sunday. Pretty low key as well!

Morning Beautiful!  Your courage, strength & determination are inspiring.  Congrats on your 11 months!!!!!!  Love you much!!!

My Thursday was pretty good.  It was go go go and I was beat.  Unfortunately had to deal with the middle of the night, quiet down & get your butts to bed with the girlies.  Thinking maybe if this continues to be a problem I should start waking them up & bringing them to work with me for retribution.  Ended up late for work cause the gas light came on & I had to stop for gas.

Lots going on this weekend.  Tonight is family night, we are going to tye dye some t-shirts.  Tomorrow is hair appointments for the girls, then off to my dad's for some time by the pool, Sunday is a cookout celebration for my brother's graduation from basic training.  Hope you all have a marvelous day & weekend!!!

Congrats on the 11 months and you are and will make it the rest of your life. I Love you and am very proud of you. I have seen a lot of changes in you and they all have been for the good. You know me I cannot find the words to really say what I want but this will have to do. I think that you are the best daughter and mother around and when I need help you are right there for me as well as others. You have gone through some really bad times and came through it and became stronger for it.
Again I Love you so much and am very proud of you.     you    to you

Hey Katters!

Most importantly, congrats on 11 months. It's an amazing accomplishment. I don't want to bring any negativity to your day, but I want to warn you that sometimes things get a little hairy around this time. I don't know what it is but when you start approaching one year, funny things happen. It may or may not happen, but I just wanted to tell you that its completely NORMAL. Everyone, including myself, goes through it as we get closer to anniversarys. You have such a great success story, I know that you will be just fine. Just keep doing what you're doing and allow people to help you, when you need it, and we'll keep celebrating together! I should be taking my own advice, haha.

As far as yesterday goes, it was awful. I have one good day, then one bad day. I guess that happens when you only get to poop on the weekends. It's draggin' me down because its emotionally/mentally draining and I don't want to eat/drink, which brings me down physically, etc. Its just a mess. I went to the doc and he did NOTHING for me, except set up the referrals I need. So until I get appointments, I suffer! Hopefully I won't implode.

I'm looking forward to my meeting tonight, I really need it. Clemson is celebrating 2 years tonight, so that will be fun as well. I never thought I'd ever hear myself say this, but I'm looking forward to tomorrow so I can give myself an enema.

Fabulous!

LYLT,
A

Good morning, beautiful!  Congratulations on 11 months.  I know it has been hard and I know it would have been very easy to just go and order a drink but Steve and I are extremely proud of you!  I am proud to call myself your friend and to call you part of our family.  You mean the world to us!  Thank you for always being there for me/us.  Yesterday was good.  My foot is still bothering me, but I am pushing forward.  We had a good time last night cooking out with friends and listening to the concert.  It is a cheap way to have fun and then we do not have to pay for the unhealthy foods and I can have my water to drink for free.  They charge a fortune for the bottled water inside.
For today, I am working until 6 then hopefully getting my nails done with Kara after.  We also need to go to Babies R Us and get a baby gift for my sister.  Then it is off to bed to get ready for this weekend.  I have a lot to do tomorrow and hopefully Steve will fix the van while I am doing what I need to do.  We wlll see if he gets off of his butt and does it...I may have to nag him a little. 
We are really looking forward to Sunday. Kara and Adam won't be there (long story...you will have e mail soon) so I have two already purchased tickets that will not be used.  We also have the cabana rented and I need to fill it up!  Other than that, no big plans.

Talk to you soon!

Congratulations on 11 months! What a wonderful accomplishment. Keep up the good work

Yesterday was work at the library as usual and the evening was mostly uneventful. We had dinner, played with the dog, and caught up on missed episodes of Project Runway, The Daily Show, and the Colbert Report.

This is the first weekend in a while that we're not traveling, so we're just looking for some relaxation at home. I hope it stays hot, because I'm jonesing for some quality pool time. I think the only thing we really have "planned" is that we want to go see Hellboy 2 and maybe get some folks over to play Rock Band. It should be a good weekend.

Well we finally managed to get my neice and her fiance at 5pm last night - it is so bad how they managed to bump them off a series of flights yesterday too!! I plan to write their letter of complaint for them.... anyone know who I should write to at Continental Airlines for maximum effect?? It is terrible that it should take them 27 hours to get from Newark to here!!!!!! They should have been given priority as they were a connecting international flight.... but my guess is they airline saw they were just 18 year old kids and gave preference to people who know how to complain.... anyway it is so good to see them and I am just thankful they are here safe and sound......

Many. many, congratulations on remaining 11 months sober! That is such a great accomplishment and deserves to be recognized!  I am so proud that despite all the issues you are facing right now you have held on strong and fast to such an important facet of your life. I am proud to be friends with you! You are very important to me!  The girls need you and could not have a better mommy to be there for them!

Hang in there!

Congratulations to you, Kit Kat. Keep up the good work for you and your girls! Saw your pic in the latest OH Magazine. Very nice I might  add. 
    For Friday, I enjoyed time with friends. Also weeded  the garden and cut back some wilting flowers. Watered the pots as they were wilting,  too.  Was feeling tired last night,  so stayed in to cha****ch a movie and  relax.
   On Saturday, had coffee at my favorite spot. The SPCA Rummage Store celebrated their 1 year anniversary. Stopped to see the cute kittens.  Had lunch at Amego's with Meet and Greet group. You and your mom met us there a few months ago. Relaxing for the remainder of the day. Peace, Cindy
