Professor White and the line dancing surfers eat cold turkey

[serialtester]

Welcome to the surfboard!

Ha ha no worries DH has offered to do them can't think why

I'm having some wine. Hair of the dog!

Don't worry, cleaning, I'd be a weak link too if I could afford it tonight! Instead I am cooking myself a lovely ribeye steak :)

I actually plucked my eyebrows last night too when I was climbing the walls to try keep busy. Also done an online crossword to try distract my brain 😂

Dh just went to pick his pizza out the oven and dropped it upside down that combined with dropping a box of screws over the bathroom floor he's even moodier now 😂😂

Cleaning I have to admit I'd really really struggle if I didn't even have the come down to focus on like you. The feeling craps the massive kick up the arse I need to stop.

Is your dh wanting any tonight? Does he suffer the day after?

Yy to snow on the counter fuuuuck. Dh is having a nap as he worked this afternoon. He will probably wake up refreshed and ready for action

Yes sometimes I wish I suffered. It would help me so much but if anything I bounce back

Ok, so a serious question for you....
Do you get the come down because you are mixing alcohol with it, or if you just have it with a cup of tea for example, would it be the same feelings the next day. This is a social experiment we have talked about but not done so far??

I sometimes do a crossword to distract myself. I suggested it to flat once and she was not impressed with the idea

I've borrowed the life guard's megaphone to say "where are you flat?" Are you overboard?

Hanging on in there for dear life Lost! Going to be low key tonight as don't want to trigger anyone

Hang tight flat hope you're ok. The first weekend at home clean was always going to be tough. You're doing good.

costa Definitely the Druuggs causing the comedown. I've done that experiment many times.

Snap flat! I feel like they turkeys are pecking holes in all my floating devices!

New plan of action. Ds napped in the pm so is wide-awake and has asked to go bowling and have burgers for dinner so nails are on hold. We're going out as a family and going to make a point of paying cash 👊

Oh flat, just take it hour by hour. I find that drinking like a mad woman, smoking like a bastard and having lots of baths helps.

Costa, I get the come down heebeejeebies with or without alcohol.

Good luck to one and all tonight, bowling sounds fun clean, enjoy!
And I'll join you in the hour by hour serial

Costa I'm not sure cause a few weeks ago we had two between us and over the space of six hours I only drank one bottle of wine and a bottle of red square someone had left at Xmas. I felt totally fine the next day.

Iv never had it without alcohol so not sure. I don't think alcohol helps. Vodka makes me feel awful with ot without.

Have to say the last couple of times I haven't had a proper come down where Iv felt down, lethargic and unmotivated for days like I usually do.

Once I can get to the point of having a hot bath, getting my fluffy pyjamas on it gets easier. It's still bloody early though.

Cleaning Enjoy your bowling. I love how your dh is surfing with you tonight.

Yeah he is being a trooper

Maybe he suffers cos he drinks... I'm pretty much tee total. I do drink but only occasionally.

I'm an hour away from Jim jam time. Last night was SO much fun. Proper just getting pissed fun. I've missed that. Tonight is more restrained wine and steaks - yummy!

Lost if that same what helps you I'd go for it!

Flat you can do this!!

*is not same, no idea how same got in there.

Dh just made me chuckle, he said that he is indeed wide awake but is here to cull the mother fucking turkeys not feed them 😂

In my more sane moments I know regardless of how I feel on or off it, it's got to be seriously affecting my health and my future health. All this dipping in and out of the water is like playing with fire really. (jumbled metaphor)

By heck it just feels so fucking good though. Planning a bath..

Just dropping in to catch up on the latest Surfing Strategies turkey cull

Lost - about health stuff, when I finally got to see a dentist, after I'd given up, he sent the nurse out and said, "I won't put this on your notes as I have known you all your life, but I can see what you have been doing. It is apparent on the back of your throat, for starters. I hope you have stopped, for your kids's sake as well as your own" GULP. Turned out that some medics, dentists etc would feel obliged to report it to SS/police/DVLA etc. He retired, I've not dared go to the dentist since. Been looking at dentists in Rabat and Marrakesh!

Uh-oh woman overboard. We're about to go out to see friends of OH's and they are serious party animals. I know what's going to happen.

Witty - try to say No to the 1st line, see how you get on and do some mindfulness as you battle yourself (and you will - the "But I deserve it" one was one of my biggies) so you can see what going without makes you think so you understand it a little better. You probably won't last all night saying No, but every line you can turn down should make you feel GREAT cos then you know you can. And if you can't, so be it. There's always next time.

But you do need to grasp what your brain is saying (angel and devil voices etc) and sadly, you can only get a handle on it by being a bit strong willed about not having it occasionally. My 2p, have a great night though.

Holy shit user I'm due a dental check up soon. Fuck fuck fuck.

Good luck witty!!
