Hi honeys, I'm home...

Question

Lizzie Lou, Fladdict, addictedtolortab, Mis Take, Roof, Chrosty, Whenwillitend, Lady S. and all my friends, I just wanted to check in and let all of you know I survived the weekend.  The amazing part is that as of a few months ago, I would've never attempted such a job without being high on my "oxys".  But this time my sister and I enjoyed "quality" time together and did all of the food for the event ourselves and I was totally straight!  I even made tons and tons of my "famous" mini-cheesecakes and they were a big hit!  I was also the "quality check" taster!  haha
I missed you and hope all of you had great weekends.  I'm so proud of me and hope ya'll are too.
Love,
Yoda  68 days c/t from oxy

What an achievement - 60 days!!!!!!!! I am on day 3, and it's no picnic, but I don't feel like giving in on the other hand, so that is something, right? I hope I will soon be able to have a weekend like the one you just described. You must be so proud of yourself.
Thanks for reminding us that it is possible to succeed.
Take care and have a good day.
Minnie

I just posted, but I don't know where it went???
Just wanted to congratulate you with day 68, fantastic. I am on day 3 (very small yeeaaaaah), but at least I am on my way, and even though it's no picnic, I don't feel like I want to give in, so that is something, right?
Thanks for reminding us who are still struggling that it can be done.
Have a great day.
Minnie

I know it seems like you have a long way to go, but Day 3 is quite an achievement in itself.  I was there once.  So hang in there, a day at a time, and you'll get there.  I am very proud of you.  I remember how hard those first few days were!  And I'm here for you if you need anything, ok?
Good luck,
Yoda

I really don't know what happened here, I am not yet that senile, if anyone suspects that ;-)

LIZZIE LOU · Answer

i know what you're talking about.   i "read" your response to my post to you...then the next time i came back...it was gone...hhmmmm?   then it appeared again next time...what is going on?   several times over the last few days i have posted to someone...hit the submit button...it went through and back to the forum.   but when i looked, it wasn't there.   i know ladysundown has been having problems too.

glad to read that your "head" is in a good place...committment.

huggs,
kim

Mom, you mean I didn't miss anything while I was gone?  Dang.  I was hoping to catch up on all the news when I got back.  Did you ever get hold of Roof?  Is he doing ok?
I missed you so much!
Love,
Yogi

hi im new around here.  guess ive been "lurking"  for weeks now.  ive got to get to know all of your stories and wow.  i thought i was all alone in this battle.   i have had some time to think about how this all started and i can't even remember when.  guess ive had an addictive personality and liked the way opiates made me feel or not feel.  ive decided to make my quit day tomorrow.   ive got support from my husband and im starting to let some other family members in on my "secret".  i got to rehab counselor tomorrow and im scared as he%%.  i think i can beat this without going into i/p treatmnt.  let me know what you guys think    and thanks for the support in advance

C O N G R A T U L A T I O N S !!  I think we're all proud of you. You set a good example for new people here. They can see there is hope. 

I have trouble getting my posts show up when I send them sometimes, too. I guess it's a glitch or something but It sure is aggravating.

Big Hug......LS

Yoda99 · Answer

Thank you for the kind words.  By the way, how are you doing today?  How was your weekend?  I know you've had some not so good days, so please be sure to let me know if I can help in anyway, ok.
Love ya,

Welcome Back! :)

I'm very happy that all went so well for you this weekend! I will be going to my best friends wedding around my mid 50's, and I was slightly concerned about tackling all the responsibilities. I know by then I should be in much better shape, but I've always had an evil friend to rely on for high stress situations. Hearing how well you did gives me hope! :)

Anyway, good to have you back!
