MMMmmmmmmmhhppppffff. :D


I think Ice is stuck on a mountain? ;)

3562 days sober

Yeah, it was a beautiful weekend here in the mountains! But, alas, I was stuck indoors most of it with my pneumatic stapler and 300ft of trim. :D

I did manage to spend an hour on the deck last night, sipping iced coffee, watching the sun set over the peaks...:cool:

Well, I have the exact same numbers as you! Only in a slightly different sequence: 3256. ;)


Doing a bit better even though life is a turmoil at the moment. Found a new thing I can put my teeth in and perhaps earn some money with too. Glad to see my brain at 58 is still flexible enough to learn/dig into a completely new domain.


Probably helps said brain is no longer drenched in alcohol, and I'm exactly a month away from being 9 years sober. Feels good.

Nice!

Yeah, I am 10 years behind you (next month) and I do NOT want to learn any new things...besides car stuff! I need some welding done and I am trying to work up the courage to take the grinder to my Roadmaster Wagon :D

My wife is throwing a "Decade Sober" party this summer. Got any travelling plans? ;)

I'd love to learn how to weld and fabricate. I actually watched quite a few videos about it. A couple of guys bought a bog standard Mitsubishi Lancer wagon (115BHP), and turned it into a Lancer Evolution wagon (of which only 600 were ever made and sold in Japan) using parts from a salvaged (crashed) Evo, making about 520BHP on E95, with the full AWD system etc etc. Not an easy job :D. Thousands of spot welds to remove old panels and weld on the (much wider) new panels. It's truly an art.



But ... I think it's a bit late to start all that now.


Careful, or you have a 6'7" European at your door! Sadly, there's this little thing called Covid, I don't know if you heard about it. ;) Also I'm skint (but that will change soon). However: sounds like a great idea, and I'm going to keep this in the back of my mind. I mean we can always go for an extra "joint party" when I'm near my "Decade", right?


I have 3 invitations standing for the US and Canada, and it's getting a bit rude from my end to keep saying "sorry!". But I'll PM you the gory details as to why/how, and how/when that might change. :cool:

Dang. My wagon has 180BHP (but it weighs 4,000 lbs....BAHAHA)
I would love to have an Audi S6 wagon with the stock syncro....

Let's get this COVID bs out of the way and see..... :)

3592 days sober!

Just got back from 10 days in the Arizona desert and, yes, it was hot. High of 101F (38C) on a couple of the days, but there was always a nice breeze so it was quite tolerable. Toured a Cold War missile silo, hiked a mountain, visited Tombstone and spent some quality time with family. Lots of walking, lots of water and many laps in our private pool.

As I approach 10 years sober I am thankful, and grateful, that I have a place to post my monthly triumphs! Not many would understand...

Thanks everyone!

Not many indeed.


For me it's 3287 days, or shorter: 9 years today. A week or so ago, I also passed the 100K EUR mark not spent on booze and cigs.


So yeah, I'm gonna continue this run. ;)

3621 days sober

Rolled around the sun for my 48th time last week so we had a HUGE party at the house and I found out that my wife is way better at Cornhole then I am....

30 more days till my decade of sobriety milestone!

Ice out...

I’m not going to ask wat Cornhole is. It’s not the Beavis & Butthead one I assume? :D

Good job anyway! ;)
