Ok....LOVE YOU ALL!!!
You were right. Once I got through the initial first 5 days, I'm began to come alive again. Slowly on day 6, I began to emerge. The first days of grogginess, not much appetite, and restless sleep were behind me. Day 6...started slow, but I did start functioning. Day 7....felt good, accomplished alot more.
Day 8 - FEELING DAMN GOOD! And happy this morning about this decision. Actually began planning the things I need to do today. (Not so much fun stuff, just basics of life). So much I've slacked on over time.
And the best part.....making the plans didn't piss me off!!!! Cleaning the house, grocery shopping....all the stuff that always such an annoyance to me, now are something that I just have to do. I have to admit, I started cleaning some yesterday afternoon and evening, I found it weird without wine! I used to wait to clean till about 4pm-ish, so I could have wine and clean!!!! I thought it made it less painful. WOW! Its amazing how much MORE I accomplished without drinking and cleaning!!!!
I just wanted to say thanks again to all of you, and I'm going for it. I do not want alcohol in my system anymore. 29 years is enough. I'm 44 and don't want to be that women you see sitting in the corner dive bar at 70 with no one but her drinking buddies. I want my daughter to love me till I die, not die while she's trying to sober me up.
Thanks EVERYONE!
