So how many words did you write is actually translated to how many days were you sober, clean, or happy depending on your addiction?Diva Donnahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07212847651776831475noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2917328764825378054.post-34406421073691165452009-12-10T15:18:07.026-07:002009-12-10T15:18:07.026-07:00Support Groups are fabulous.

Let's see how many words you can hit up this week . . . how would that work for AA? How many drinks did you down? How many innocent people did you hurt?<br /><br />I digress.<br /><br />Thank you for your words about Scrooge. He actually pulled it off!!!

Sleep does wonders.<br /><br />On the chocolate cookie discussion, I agree with Linda. The payoff is temporary, but very satisfactory. The humbug comes when you try to tally daily calories for a friendly competition and realize that the cookies put you way over the goal. <br /><br />Kirk, you crack me up. Good advice is good advice and I'd rather have it and hate it than not have it and stumble around in ignorance. Thanks for being brave. I'm working on the actual appreciation of the advice from everyone, not just yours. You all might have to wait and read the acknowledgments in print.Diva Donnahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07212847651776831475noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2917328764825378054.post-20342702239106479412009-12-10T12:29:19.327-07:002009-12-10T12:29:19.327-07:00Funny, Tart.
