Dry January - It's over!

Well, January 2025 is finally ticking away. I know I'm staying dry for now, so this day is not as big a deal for me as I had planned. And I know @Altitude Gator may still have a 90-day challenge underway.

But congrats to anyone who stuck it out for the month of January!
Way to go, Layla! I hope 2025 is everything you want it to be. Time to celebrate:

I'm really happy for you Layla. I'm glad that you were able to successfully reach your goal. I'm also glad that you plan to "unofficially" continue it longer.

And if there is ever anything that I can do to help you out with this endeavor...













I'll be absolutely shocked! lol:grouphug:

Thanks for the mention...but I failed a week ago. This challenge has a term to start over, so I am back on the wagon. But I didn't make the month.

Good job Layla and good to hear you are carrying on sober.
 
Congratulations @LaylaGator !!! I must admit I did come in here just to see if you tied one on starting at 12:01 am this morning.

All joking aside, and I don't know if this was hard for you or not, but I know by watching my brother and dad struggle with alcohol and it can be crippling. Both are/were high functioning as hell, but it is/was a daily drinking event. 6-8 beers minimum or 4-6 drinks bourbon, etc. Again, I don't know if that applies to you or not, but good on you non the less!!! I had to kick a smokeless tobacco habit 30 years ago and I know it was hard as hell for me.

One thing that helped me was someone who had quit told me "if you are going to let a little round can of Skoal make you its little bitch, you really are a little bitch". Ouch. Never met a Cuban woman who was ANYBODY'S bitch.

    Good Morning Chatterers. Extra tired this FriYay morning. Beautiful day today, bluebird skies, 22 degrees, but we about to get pounded like @t-gator Mom. Enjoy your day.

    If they search my house, they will find lots of pairs of gloves (and some toddler mittens too). So, the first question is whether the glove in question is connected to the kidnapper. Then, the next question is when was it found and has it been forensically examined. They may have found it right away on day one and just didn't announce it. Evidence is often (almost always) withheld from the public unless it helps the investigation. If it was just discovered, then why the delay? Why wasn't it found sooner? Was it really well concealed? OJ jokes aside, leaving a glove behind is really dumb.
    you can also tell these guys are married with a family of their own. Because they didn’t even ask why there was only one glove, and if there was any chance of finding the matching counterpart. They’ve seen this episode before.

    Obviously, the cops would bring four uhauls to your house and take all gloves and clothing,plus everything else from your home.
    I need somebody to make a "CSI: Mayberry" meme.

    FNC reporting that a glove has been found inside the Guthrie home. How can it be found 10+ days after the event? Has incompetence impacted every aspect of local/state/fed govt?

    Excellent find. The fact that this song was originally performed by Temple of the Dog is clearly an homage to both the weird Epstein rituals and the inevitable shift from fiat currency to Dogecoin. Can’t believe they got Chris too.

    in fairness, if this Savannah is anything like my wife, the glove was probably in the toaster oven.
