    Yeah, that was dumb. I was trying to figure out something with a carpenter's plane but that seemed worse.

    @donimfp and @NovusDies I work for an aircraft maintenance shop. We service small aircraft and private jets at a small local airport. It''s fun, interesting, and sometimes high pressured work. My job is all the bookkeeping, but I end up doing a lot of other things. However, I don't touch the planes. No one would want that. :smile:

    @Leeg5656 You know exactly where it's probably from... you just don't want to admit it xD

    Day 4 AF- I feel like it's a slow crawl uphill. But I'm doing it anyway. I have been walking a lot (14,000 steps today) to keep my mind busy and on track. I was looking at my tea mug at school and noticed how stained it is. I wonder if my teeth look like that, too. Many of us have been substituting tea. I think I'll try to find tea that doesn't have that strong color. Call CNN- Julie is looking for clear tea. Haha! As you can see, I have nothing new to report for today.

    I agree with all of you- compare us to last year, we are so far ahead of the curve. Don't you feel so much better emotionally? I know I do. I'm certainly less stressed and depressed.

    I'm back on Day 9. It's so funny to me that I don't even care to have a drink and then BAM! I am downright angry that I "can't" so I storm over to the wine aisle and there goes 2 days. I feel just like a spoiled child who has been told no to something. I will say it's easier to get back to AF than it was in January, when I was absolutely hopeless, and it's much longer in between my temper tantrums ;-)

    @JulieAL1969 Here is a link to some white tea. White tea (and herbal teas) seem to be lighter in color but also lower in caffeine, I think, so that's a trade if it's your pick me up! http://www.republicoftea.com/white-tea/c/53/

    Strength to you all! <3<3<3
