@SparkSpringtime69 I wish it was a neighborhood! That trash was literally from the less than 1 mile stretch of road I live on. @globalhiker there used to be a sign at one end of our road that indicated a $1,000 fine for littering. One of our drunk driving litter bugs plowed it down one night, and the county never replaced…

No wine since Thursday. Son had his JrROTC military ball last night, my daughter is at a church youth retreat this weekend, and I have tons of leftovers in the fridge. So, I went to get my nails done today and went for my first walk all week and picked up litter. It’s been cold and wet this past week, but I was also…

I have trouble sticking with books. I currently have 8 books on my side table that I have started, and I can’t seem to finish. I’ve been trying to read one of them for about 2 years now. One of them is even a quote a day thing, and I’ve had it for 3 years and have yet to read every quote. 🤦🏻♀️

I’m so glad I’m not alone! Spoke to my management today for both my positions, and they just have so much confidence in me. I don’t know why other than I just try to do what I’m hired to do and take ownership of my actions. If I screw up, I say I screwed up. I ask questions I think are dumb all the time. People ask my…

OMG… what day is it? I think I fell off the planet. I’ll be honest, not 100% sure what my A vs. AF is. I haven’t had more than a glass or two and not every night. I just lost track. Currently working 2 jobs at the same time, so I’m exhausted and have no idea what I’m doing half the time. But, I’m here, and I’m doing the…

AF - 18 A - 7 Walked and picked up trash the past 2 days. Lots of trash. Hip was fine while walking, didn’t start hurting until evening. Cooked tonight, but the food was too heavy or something. I have felt sick ever since dinner.

AF - 17 A - 6 @chicbuc and @SurferGirl1982, how in the world do you not go broke living near casinos? Can’t gamble in SC, so I’m safe from my own gambling demons!🤣 I lived in CA for 3 years, and I had to be real careful about going to casinos. I only went a couple of times. Grands were here today, and it was fun. I’m tired…

AF - 17 A - 5 Everyone is doing so well. Great job everyone! I took a few days to get my mind right before posting again because I was doing a lot of bitching! I think I’m really out of whack because it’s too cold for my walk, and I haven’t been getting any real exercise. Anyway, have you heard of Kylie Perkins? She’s on…

AF - 15 A - 3 @Womona MIL has always been a little rude, but we didn’t have to deal with it unless she was visiting. Now, that she lives here, I think it’s just come to the surface as to how rude she really can be. I grew up in a home where the man of the house made his plate first at the dinner table. You didn’t serve…

We did the same for my stepdaughter when she was trying to flip flop between our house and her mom’s. She eventually got her crap together enough to move out on her own. It’s a little harder to give MIL a deadline… I mean death really isn’t her choice. 😉 She’s with us until she dies. It’s just very difficult in this house…

AF - 14 A - 2 Broke my streak, but not feeling awful about it. Just wanted a drink. Of course, I drank a whole bottle one night which was dumb. But, tonight, I’m moderating. Typically, the water/wine alternating decreases my intake and keeps me from feeling like crap. Been a couple of long days.
-
Oh, that would be it! I would eat in another room for sure! Thank goodness, MIL doesn’t do that! LOL
-
OMG!! LMAO!! We have tried the loud music, but then it had to be way too loud to drown her out. It’s awful! The past few nights we’ve been able to avoid having family meals. But, tonight I made dinner for my daughter’s 15th birthday, and I switched seats with my husband. It was A LITTLE better, but I could still hear her.…
-
AF - 12 A - 0 I’m having an issue at dinner with my MIL. I sit next to her at the table, and the noises she makes are completely disgusting and disturbing. I know some of it she can’t control. But, there are things she can do to help with some of it like taking smaller bites, use a better adhesive on her dentures, or use…
-
AF - 11 A - 0 Tuesday started off rough at work. Don’t ask me if I can do something but tell me do it anyway when I tell you I can’t. Anyway, I guess I’ll just keep going. The day got better when I got my offer letter for my new job. The pay increase is exciting, but I have to wait until the job actually starts and that’s…
-
AF - 10 A - 0 I started the chicken stock today. So, that’s been simmering all day, and I’ll keep it on warm tonight to just let everything steep a little longer letting all those yummy flavors marry even more. It smells heavenly. Didn’t do any organizing/purging today. But, I think if I have some time tomorrow, I know…
-
AF - 9 A - 0 @chicbuc glad you’re feeling better, and I hope it stays that way. @Womona I don’t know. I’m not a fan of Clorox wipes. I have tried them, and I feel like they leave a film. I only use them now to disinfect my kitchen counter after working with raw meats, but after it sits and dries I’ll use a damp paper towel…
-
Glad you held out. Keep ticking the AF days!
-
AF - 8 A - 0 Son took gold again and broke 3 state records at today’s competition. Very proud of him and his teammates. They all did great! I got the cupcakes made after a catastrophe of a start. But, they are ready to go for tomorrow. Didn’t make the chicken stock because I like to let it simmer overnight in my electric…
-
@Womona thanks for all the great tips! The schedule sounds great in theory, but I don’t know if I can manage that schedule. Like I said, we’re lived in, not filthy. Kids participate. They are teenagers and have their chores. They empty and load the dishwasher every day, trash (daily), vacuum (weekly) and dust (weekly). My…
-
AF - 6 A - 0 I really needed to clean bathrooms today. What did I do? I worked and then baked bread.🤷🏻♀️ I guess I’ll have to do it tomorrow. Work will probably be really slow tomorrow afternoon. Plus, MIL will be at dialysis, so I can clean her bathroom without her staring at me.🙄 I really need to come up with a better…

In their efforts to be kind and loving husbands, they don’t often help us in the right way. It’s hard to be mad at them when we know they are just showing their love and thinking they are doing us a favor. And, then we are even less bothered by it when we’re drinking it thinking “so glad he got this!” It’s such a conundrum…
-
@itladyee It’s great your doing the challenge. I walk about 3 miles or more every day I walk. So far, I’m at 6 days in a row. I have to keep walking or my hip starts giving me crap. As long as I’m moving, it still hurts but not nearly as bad. Yep, the nail salon has wine. It’s all just boxed stuff, and they can only give…
-
Probably won’t even bother to watch the game. I used to be a huge football fan, but my husband is really not into it. He’d rather watch movies all day. So since we’ve been married, I think I’ve only watched one Super Bowl, and he played on the computer in another room the whole time. I don’t watch football anymore. All…
-
@globalhiker thanks for the recipe! Sounds delicious. Sounds like hubby has some more ingredients to pick up tomorrow!😉
-
AF-5 A-0 Ok… finally getting caught up… @Born2Run1958 I love oysters, and it’s a funny thing I never want to drink when I’m eating them. Glad you enjoyed your NAs! @globalhiker your workouts sound great! @SunnyDays930 the sauerkraut topic is a hit! I have always known there are benefits to pickled foods, and I’ve always…
-
AF-4 A-0 Claiming AF today. Don’t have it to drink it anyway. I’ll have to catch up on posts tomorrow, but I will. I saw sauerkraut discussion, and I’m curious!🤣
-
@chicbuc how cute!! Love the pic!
-
AF-2 A-0 @chicbuc please say it isn’t so! I don’t think I could handle it if my daughter did the occasional bath thing as an adult.
-
Your plans for today sound wonderful and relaxing! I like you’re a “soda snob” LOL It’s great that you embrace sitting at the bar as an experience without the follow through. There is an energy at the bar that is enjoyable. I love sitting at a bar especially a busy one. There is a bourbon bar in the city that is amazing.…
