Recovery isn’t about becoming someone new.

It’s about getting back to who you were before addiction convinced you that you were nothing.

At UM Recovery, we believe change happens one decision at a time.
Today’s decision matters.
Tomorrow will thank you for it.

🎄✨ Caesar’s Shenanigans Continue: Problem-Solving Elf Edition ✨🎄

Caesar showed up this morning ready to help.

Apparently he overheard that there weren’t enough I-pads around the recovery…
so he decided to take matters into his own hands. 😅

He left a note saying he brought an “I-Pad” —
which turned out to be a pad of paper with an eye drawn on it.

Resourceful? Yes.
Accurate? Debatable.
Helpful? He thinks so. 😂

He even made sure to remind everyone not to forget to share, because teamwork matters — even in elf logic.

Thanks for looking out for us, Caesar. We’ll take it from here. 💚🧝‍♂️

🎄✨ Caesar’s Shenanigans Continue: Hidden in Plain Sight ✨🎄

Looks like Caesar decided it was time to go full undercover. 😭🧻

This morning we found him completely wrapped up, thinking he was invisible, with a note that read:

📜 “They see me rollin’, they hatin’,
they trying to catch me being naughty.”
— Caesar

Sir… we can literally see your face. 😂

At this point, Caesar is convinced Security is watching his every move, so he’s doing what any responsible elf would do — hiding in paper towels and quoting song lyrics.

Honestly, the confidence is unmatched.

🎄✨ Caesar’s Shenanigans Continue: He Understood the Assignment ✨🎄

So apparently Caesar didn’t just hear that the guys like Starbucks…
he processed it. 🤯☕⭐

This morning we found him sitting proudly next to: ⭐ hand-drawn stars
💵 a few bucks
and a note that said:

📜 “I heard you guys like Starbucks.
Enjoy.
— Caesar”

Stars.
Bucks.
STAR-BUCKS.

Not gonna lie — that’s actually solid elf logic. 😂👏
Creative, thoughtful, and technically correct.

We see you, Caesar.
And honestly? We’re impressed. 💚🧝‍♂️

🎄✨ Caesar’s Shenanigans Continue: Fitness Coach Edition ✨🎄

This morning we walked in and found Caesar hitting the gym…
on a dinner plate…
lifting “90 pounds” like he’s training for the North Pole Olympics. 😂💪🧝‍♂️

He left us a message:

📜 “The weight is almost over.
X-mas is almost here.
Working out helps me, and eating healthy.
I brought you Krabby Patties for when you are done.
There is some extra for all your hard work.”
— Caesar

Not Caesar giving a holiday workout pep talk AND bringing snacks as a reward.
He really said:
✔️ stay healthy
✔️ stay strong
✔️ stay focused
✔️ here’s candy anyway 😆

We love his commitment to wellness… even if his form could use a little work.

🎄✨ Caesar’s Shenanigans Continue: Injured on the Job ✨🎄

This morning we found Caesar sitting on the stair rail with his foot wrapped up…
and a note explaining exactly what happened. 😭🧝‍♂️

According to Caesar:

📜 “Just so you know, I was bringing presents but I hurt myself in one of the rooms.
Please pick up stuff off the floor.
We will try again later — just got back from the ELF hospital.
You got this, and Santa and I are proud of you.
One day at a time.”

Not Caesar getting INJURED because the rooms were messy and turning it into both a teaching moment and a pep talk. 😂💀

He’s basically saying:
💚 “Clean your rooms.”
💚 “I believe in you.”
💚 “But also… ouch.”

We appreciate his commitment to safety, wellness, and holiday cheer.
Let’s keep those floors clear so we don’t have to file an Elf Workers’ Comp claim. 😆✨

🎄✨ Caesar’s Shenanigans Continue: Hiding in Plain Sight ✨🎄

We knew Caesar was up to something the moment we saw the mess in the cafeteria…
But it took us a minute to figure out where he disappeared to.

Turns out —
he was in the wreath the whole time, watching us clean up like it was his morning entertainment. 😭

He left a note:

📜 “You don’t see me,
But I see you!
No Redbulls or Monsters —
Instead I brought you Skittles.
Please find your color.
P.S. I’m going to have fun watching.
(Sorry about the mess… NOT)”

And sure enough, there he was — perched in the wreath clutching ZERO SUGAR Skittles like he’s promoting holiday wellness while causing absolute chaos. 🌈🧝‍♂️😂

At this point, Caesar is everywhere except where we expect him to be.

🎄✨ Caesar’s Shenanigans Continue: The Poet in the Blinds ✨🎄

Just when we thought Caesar might have disappeared after his great escape, he showed up this morning… stuck in the blinds. 😂

He left us a poem:

📜 “Roses are red,
Violets are blue,
I got stuck coming
Back to see you.”

And because Caesar is always up to something, he added:

📜 “P.S. Christmas trees for sale — 25¢”

Yes… he’s now selling Little Debbie Christmas tree cakes out of the blinds like it’s a holiday side hustle. 🎄😂

Welcome back, Caesar — the chaos continues.

🌤️ Happy Friday from UM Recovery! 🌤️

We made it through another week — and around here, that’s something worth celebrating. 💛

Fridays at UM Recovery aren’t just the end of a workweek…
They’re a reminder that every day you stayed the course, showed up, and kept fighting for yourself matters.

Whether this week felt steady, stressful, or somewhere in between, you’re still here.
You’re still choosing recovery.
And that is powerful.

Take today to breathe, reflect, and be proud of how far you’ve come.
The weekend is another chance to practice your skills, stay grounded, and lean into community.

💚 Keep going. You’re building a life you won’t have to escape from.

🎄✨ Caesar’s Day 6 Shenanigans: The Great Elf Escape ✨🎄

Security thought they had Caesar yesterday…
But this morning he made it VERY clear:

📜 “Security, you got the wrong elf! HA HA!
You can’t catch me. I’m headed to see Santa to tell.
Catch me IF you can — Caesar.”

Not only did he leave the note — he took off on a reindeer like he was in an action movie. 🦌💨
Meanwhile, he left a decoy elf in a candy cane trap as a distraction. 😂🍭

This little guy is getting bold.
Security, the challenge has officially been issued. 😆

Stay tuned… Caesar’s clearly in his mission impossible era. 🧝‍♂️🎄

🎄✨ Caesar’s Day 5 Shenanigans: His First “AA Meeting”… Sort Of! ✨🎄

This morning we walked in and found Caesar sitting proudly with a sign that said:

📜 “Welcome 2 Caesar’s ‘AA’ Meeting”

At first we were confused…
Then we saw the AA batteries lined up in front of him. 😂🔋

Looks like our little elf heard everyone talking about meetings and thought he’d start his own version.
We’ll gently explain the difference later — but for now, we’re giving him credit for effort!

Caesar’s keeping the holiday spirit light, fun, and full of surprises around here.
Stay tuned… because we’re pretty sure he’s just getting started. 💚🧝‍♂️
