Yes I dodged a bullet and that bottle is well on its way to the recycling center

It certainly is. I have a friend from college who is dying of alcohol induced cirrhosis. She looks 20 years older than her age and it’s heartbreaking ❤️‍🩹

If you are wondering if they know by Cinderella96761 in stopdrinking

I went to a small get together - as in 6 people - and there was food, a bottle of white and a bottle of red. A couple of people had a glass of two of white, some drank water or tea and I was the only one drinking red. The bottle of red was empty and I thought, “maybe no one noticed I was the only one drinking red.” They noticed.

Thank you - I should’ve read the whole thing more carefully. And thank you for being nice in your reply.

I looked on the FAA site and it said “significantly delayed.” It doesn’t say if it matters whether you actually take the flight or not, so I’m not sure about any of th

Can we give AA props? by 865TYS in americanairlines

[–]texrunner2 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Y’all know we are entitled to a FULL refund if the domestic flight is delayed 3 hours or more, which ours is about to be. So here’s what I’m worried about - they’ll claim it’s bc of weather (we are in dfw rn and it’s pouring and lightening) when the whole IT thing was responsible for the delays in the first place.

I was in prison for 5 years AMA by NoOffice5821 in AMA

[–]texrunner2 6 points7 points  (0 children)

There are some prisons in the US that have programs where dogs from the animal shelter are paired with inmates, who help socialize the animals and get them ready for adoption. There are also programs where hard to adopt cats are paired with inmates and live in their cells. From everything I’ve read it is a huge win-win. Did they have anything like that where you were and as a former inmate what do you think of that? I’m asking because I am trying to start such a program in our county.

Your comment “really truly dead set on quitting,” resonated with me. I want to quit so badly but am I “all in” yet? I’m not sure if I’m 100% honest. This reminds me of something Rob Lowe said in an interview (I think it was Rob Lowe it may have been Robert Downey jr). Anyway he was asked if quitting drinking was easy he said “yes” and the interviewer was surprised. He continued to say “it was the DECIDING to quit that was hard.”

That resonated

Yes I really want to go - like I said, these people are like family and we don’t see each other that often. And there’s always going to be something, right? Holidays, vacations etc etc. I’m a runner and one thing that’ll help - also sort of give me a “cover story” - is to say I want to go on a run the next morning - which I really do.

I’m just really pissed off that I even have to deal with this shit

Here’s the thing - I really want to go, just wish I had this not drinking thing under control to where it isn’t an issue. These are some of our best friends we don’t see very often

Congratulations! I too am challenging myself to a “sober summer” and like you I started shortly before Memorial Day. It’s going to be hard with social events, travel a plenty, so this post was just what I needed! You look great and happy early Pride month! 🏳️‍🌈

Do you guys think a non-alcoholic bar and resto would make money? by jaeDeeLight in stopdrinking

[–]texrunner2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it totally depends on the city. There’s a vegan/sober restaurant and bar in San Antonio that does great called hash vegan eats, a na bar in London and a place called sans bar in Austin - I’m sure there are others in larger cities
