The Brave Babes Battle Bus - Carry On Past The Christmas Party (part 1)

1000 replies

TheMousefaceBeforeChristMouse · 03/12/2010 16:22

Hello.

Welcome to The Brave Babes Bus. I'm Mouseface and I used to abuse alcohol and to be honest, there is always a risk that I'll do it again.

This is a bus journey for those who drink too much, or drink now and then, not at all, or actually aren't quite sure what their drinking means to them.

Come and meet the other Brave Babes, everyone is welcome. Xmas Smile

Yay for Nemo!! Go Nemo,go!!!Xmas Grin

TheMousefaceBeforeChristMouse · 13/12/2010 11:25

Thanks Ma - how are you feeling?

Silver - you are right in both points of your post. Nemo is a fighter and you will lose all of those things and more if you don't take control right now.

But the best thing is, you know that. You know that you are risking it all. Your DP, DD and career.

It's not worth it. It really, really isn't worth it. So I'm pleased to see that you are doing something about it before it's all too late. Xmas Smile

Wasindie - your talents are wasted!! You should publish a book of dittys Xmas Grin

Ok am getting very nervous now. Worrying about things like where to park and will I be able to find it.

FFS girl it's in a Library - how can you not find that.

Am leaving myself an hour to get there, park and locate the meeting.

And YES I am like this about everything.

Have had a chat with my sister and texted the other one........

Confused x

desiretochange · 13/12/2010 12:02

Deep breaths Silver (not easy when you are a smoker:)), let us know how you get on!

Silverbaubleonatree · 13/12/2010 12:03

And Good Morning to desire, Ma, Noteven, Forthe, Red, Christi, and everyone - sorry I am being a little self obsessed today - thank you all so much for your support - it really does make a difference - I would probably have talked myself out of going today were it not for talking on here xxxx

Silverbaubleonatree · 13/12/2010 12:05

Desire I must have gone through 20 fags already today - next one on my list but that can wait till next April when I'm 45 - I am going to try accupuncture to stop this time Xmas Grin x

Hi everyone

Last Christmouse must have been awful for you Mouse but look at how much better Nemo is compared to last year and I am sure he will be even better next year.

Well done Silver for going to AA, will be thinking of you.

I loved your poem Wasindie

And I managed the walk of shame back to work today after friday Xmas Blush

I was trying to be so good at the party desire but each time I refused a drink another one appeared so did get pretty drunk giggly and flirted with the boss too much Xmas Blush. I know I shouldn't but felt a bit low all week. Will I ever learn Smile

dementedma · 13/12/2010 12:35

oooh, define "flirted with the boss too much" - did you end up shagging on one of the desks?
