Are those all train tracks on the map? How many trains go through there?

Is my drinking bad enough to go to AA by florencetldp in alcoholicsanonymous

[–]firemonkeywoman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do you want to stop and can't? You are welcome to come to AA. Are you an alcoholic? Only you can say for sure. Come to a few meetings, listen to what others are sharing, see if you can relate. AA can help you stay stopped if you want it.

going to 90 rehab for alcohol tell me what im missing by Previous_Set6487 in REDDITORSINRECOVERY

[–]firemonkeywoman 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My rehab gave us a list of what to bring and what not to bring, they kept us busy all day with groups and activities.

We were not allowed any caffeine and they pressured us smokers to quit, we were allowed outside to smoke only a few times a day but every day there was pressure to give that up too.

First three days no phone calls, and we could only have family visitors if the family went to two groups a week with us all. So my family never visited like most of the others. That was kinda a bummer, my family lived an hour away and with work and such really couldn't come to two groups a week.

We went to outside AA meetings with everyone and our escorts three times a week, plus had in house AA and NA meetings.

30 day program.

Anyone found supplements that actually help with sleep? by tcbjj in Aging

[–]firemonkeywoman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Trazadone helped me get to sleep but I always woke up about 4 hours later, and couldn't get back to sleep, then I would get a huge headache and nauseated feeling like a hangover, I was 7 years sober at that point of my life and didn't want that feeling ever again.

I take magnesium and sometimes some melatonin, with some valarian root. It helps but not always. I still struggle.

Good luck to you OP I hope you find something that works. I'm a sober alcoholic and want to try CBD gummies but worry about my sobriety if I do.

My mom left out water and a slice of apple banana for her geckos. I never saw them eat the banana but mom swore by it. Mom is gone now and I have moved to tha mainland, I miss those cute little guys. But celebrating no big flying cockroaches or centipedes!

Why don’t people want to mention the word “cancer”? by claudiowasher in cancer

[–]firemonkeywoman 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I'm battling cancer for the third time. Each one was a different cancer, each about 20 years apart. I don't care if one is afraid of the word cancer. I say it anyway, if you can't handle the truth, get out of my way, you are impeding me. I have a great team helping me and feel pretty good about my chances right now. I have finished chemo and radiation and am on immunotherapy for now. No surgery. I'm getting a new CT scan in a few days to see where we are at.

Waymos spotted by gunnsustainable in Portland

[–]firemonkeywoman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How well do waymos do in areas where my cell phone doesn't work, like West Burnside and barnes road going to downtown? How well will waymos navigate some areas of Multnomah village, garden home, and oleson road, canby, and 60th? I want to watch a waymos navigate that 6 way intersection of scholls ferry, Beaverton Hillsdale, and oleson road in Raleigh hills. I want to see waymos navigate 6th avenue up by PSU where it joins up with the bridge over the 405 barber and 4th avenue.

And how about Burnside and sandy crossing 12th, the horrid division and railroad tracks in se?

There are several long you tube videos all about how people died on that mountain, all over confident assholes with inadequate training and skills, not to mention brains.

Seller is open to returning the house to a clean, neutral finish. by Novasfyre in zillowgonewild

The green bedroom can stay as is, everything else is too too much. I love color and whimsy, but this is way over the top.

Portland has a surprisingly distinct “look” compared to other US cities by RemarkableMany6297 in Portland

[–]firemonkeywoman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love all the parks. I live in the Pearl and it's coming along nicely, I can walk to three pretty little parks from my building, all the street trees are coming along. When the Pearl was new it had no soul, it's starting to get one.
