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.

Good Morning Girls.  Hope you get some good news today and rid yourself of the shackle Terry.  Ibizan, how goes it with you girlie?  still nice and warm in the northwest.
Maybe we have finally made the turn toward summer. yippee
Off to get nails this morning and lunch with the gal who helped me through the adapt program when i was on suboxone study.  She's a doll. I'd like to adopt her, same age as my daughter and just as sweet.
Yes, i had a note from Bob this morning and wrote him back.  I hope and pray he can turn it around with God's help and get out of the misery he is stuck in.  I feel for him.
I feel for your poor little chicken leg too Terry.
Let us know what the PO says?  Tonya

Puck Puck Lil Miss Chicken Legs here finally gt home about 1/2 hr. ago Long Day! Clas was OK, 3 more to go. Nice bunch of people, knew two of the other females in the class from jail, there were only 3 of us. Nobody putting on any airs or pretenses just facing up to the mistakes we made. The instructor was actually the guy who did my evaluation, very nice easy going and made the class interesting instead of just clinical. Ankles still hurting but I believe I am 1 day closer to unshackle day. Ibuprofen makes it somewhat bearable and it was slow tonight. Ibizan do you take your Mom on outings? Is that what the O2 is for. Bet she likes to get out and about w/u. My Mom was on a portable shortly befor she passed. I remember we made the lst thanksgiving dinner together for our family and she was able to do it thnx to it. Anyhow not much more to report, gotta wk tomorrow, going to church in the a.m. so I'll check with u2 tomorrow. Have a great night! Get some rest NaNa they'll be back! You lucky stiff!!! G-nite! God Bless Terry

You are so sweet and funny!  Glad to hear your Mom was spunky.  That is a good sign.  You should have tasted that tea lemonade and said nope wont' work, do another.  Probably somebody new.  My girls are now at their other Grandmas, which is good because Poppy and I are worn out. ha ha  lots of fun though.
Your pooches and kitty's are sweet i know.  We want another dog, but we go alot so we are waiting till we are home more.  I enjoy your posts  so much.  Have a great night and day tomorrow.  Hugs, tonya
