Why is your sponsor letting you go?

I'm glad you can still be friends with her.

Have fun at the concert.

My insurance has a large deductible and my therapist costs $98 an hour. I really like her. Have not seen her in a long time.

I slept great again last night!
Think I have finally figured out how to easily put the ear plugs in.

weight down a pound 187.7.
Getting my hair colored this morning then 3 clients this afternoon then concert. The reason Carol is releasing me as my sponsor is because I am actively drinking...and not trying to stop.

So AA does not fit into my life.

Carol said that she would continue to
meet together as friends....and not be my "sponsor" in AA since I am still drinking.
We will see how it goes this tuesday at 8pm.
Off to the party.

We went out for dinner tonight at this restaurant called Drago's seafood.
This was our 23rd wedding anniversary.
We started off with char broiled oysters which were weird. the parm mixture was mushy for some reason. not good.
I started off with a cup of shrimp and corn bisque which was good(not great).
Hubby had the surf and turf, filet...maybe 3oz and half a lobster. The filet was too small but hubby did not say anything....and he had a difficult time getting the meat out of the shell. He said some of it was chewy. My dish was shrimp and tasso and grits. It was very spicy and delicious. I had one beer with dinner.
Explained our displeasure of the oysters to the server and then the manager and he took the item off our bill.We won't be going back anytime soon.
Came home and had some chantilly cake that jeff picked up from whole foods with some fresh fruit. It was delicious!
I am very full...I hope I can sleep tonight.

Happy belated anniversary !

Sorry the restaurant turned out to be a dud. My husband and I have done that a few times.

I’ve see Chantily cake before it looks delicious, one day I’ll get one.

Saw Dr. Orazio my pdoc this morning. She was happy with my progress....no hypomania...more self control. Only drinking 2 beers at night and sleeping well.
Will see her in 6 weeks. Have my lithium level checked in a month.
Life is good!

Except my back is terrible. I hurt it in florida I think on the 17th....trying to get out of the bath tub.
Had a massage and that did not help.....will sit on a heating pad.
It is hard to do my job....sigh
bizi

going to use blue emu on it tonight....sigh

went to a BBQ and it was nice. spent the majority of the day looking at blogs and weather sites about hurricane dorian. Poor bahamas they have been beaten for a record setting duration.
Terrible. Will have to wait until the morning to see if it will turn north or not.
Back to work....lite day tomorrow...need to drum up some more business.

Do you have a bed time routine?

I have a night time routine....use argon oil to remove make up, WAsh face and apply benzo peroxide lotion then rosacea metrogel cream. Brush teeth with electric tooth brush takes 2 minutes. lotion to neck and spray tonic to throat.
Take meds for the night and set up pill box for tomorrow.This takes me a good 20 minutes total to do. Then put ear plugs in and kiss jeff Good night. I do this the same every night. We have lights out anywhere from 11;30 to 1230.
I have been sleeping fine irregardless of how much I have drank.
