sram-ams(alcohol monitoring bracelet

Anyone wearing or ever worn one of these gadgets? I was just fitted with one yesterday after having my 2nd Dui over a year ago. Am already forming skin abrasions and am concerned about ulceration sores,infection etc. I had been sober 2 years when I relapsed last march and I got popped again, it had been 2years since the first. I have been sober since and managed to drag the court thing on for 10 mnths until this past Jan. when I was sentenced this is part of a very harsh sentence I was given. No one has told me yet how long I have to wear it before I can petition to have it removed. The pain and the financial strain $400.00, a month is unreal. Anyone have any insight or advice about this? Thanks.

Yes, i know he has received lots of good suggestions.  I wish he would take them to heart and try to help himself get out of this hole he has dug himself into.  If he could just get a revelation that hey this can get better.   there is life after this and the ex.
Had my shaken green tea today>> I get the big one with no water and 3 splenda , yummy, it hits the spot.  I know this is my new addiction.  I also drink arizona diet decaf green tea all day long.  No hangovers from this stuff which is the best thing about it.ha ha  Okay chicken legs, are you still packing your bracelet around?  update when you can.  I know you have your class tonight.  I will check in manana.  Tonya

When you see this guy< PO or whomever, hobble in as best you can.  Can't hurt your case.  I have AA this morning.  Got about 4 hours of sleep last night.  Not good.  Several other things to get done while i am out and about.  No doubt I will be wanting a nap as soon as i get home.  I hate it when that happens.  
Have a great sober day girlies.  Cya on here later. Tonya

Yes the shackle is still with me! I'm going insane!!!!! Got my weekly appt. with my PO this a.m. We'll see what happens. Maybe I need to park myself outside the Judges chambers. Why do they call it a chambers anyway? Maybe we can fit him with one of these then it will become a torture chamber! Hopefully todays the day. Got my 2nd DUI school class tonight. Will keep ya's posted. Everyone make it a great day!!! Terry.

Well, is the shackle still with you?  I Hope that will be a NO.  Anxious to hear.
Good for you and a cool wave Ibi, i am so happy to say we are holding in the 70s here.
Not much humididty out here either so even the 80s is not bad.  Just having some sun is a big plus for all of us web footed people. ha  Yes, i know Bob has to dig himself out of this place he is in, but i do want to encourage him.  I know you deal with this stuff on a daily basis so you know your stuff and he needs to hear the facts as well as be encouraged to get with it.  I am off to AA in the morning.  Meeting with my sponsor 45 min. before the meeting to go over my homework.  What are my thoughts on the opinion of the Dr. in the BOOK?  Now, this is deep.  I have been working on it though.
Will check in tomorrow.  Tonya
