Evening Bridge,
Yep, i'll call her in about 6 months.
Tip, I just read a post of yours on 'changed's' thread, where you're down to 2 glasses of wine a day? It's interesting, and kinda cool that you say you realise you need to be af. What stood out for me in your post, was that even though you're only drinking 2 glasses, (which would indicate to me that you'd likely be making sober judgements) your mind can see that it is a battle for you to moderate, and af is the way for you. If i'm on the right track, I reckon the fact you're thinking this way now, not tanked up and hungover and screaming never again, etc, but relatively sober, would be setting your mental processes up with some deep, positive stuff, for when you do give it away, hence, putting you in a stronger position for the battle. Just a thought....hope all's well....

We are aliens.
We have abducted Bridget.
And probed her. (see post Mr G)
She enjoyed it just a LITTLE too much.
So we dropped her back today.
That is all.

Thanks for that, Mr. G. You've got it spot on. On the surface of things, I've done what was "expected" of me. But that isn't enough for me anymore. Even though my wife is happy, the kids are happy, I'm happier, the internal struggle is always going to be there, and I'm tired of living with it!

I always appreciate your thoughts - you know your stuff, and can prod, probe and poke in the nicest way!

I would have thought the aliens who abducted Wavey would have been driven out of their minds by his Dave-isms by now. Clearly he must be fitting in extremely well, though!

I miss the bugger, I must admit. But hey - this is a democracy, right?

Except when Mr. G says something - then it becomes (out)law :-)

I will NEVER get into a scrap with you. Even I know my limits :H:H:H

Alway's learning, and you're welcome. I know that internal struggle of course, with the mod stuff, and in the end, the evidence was irrefutable. I could no longer deny that i just couldn't/wouldn't moderate. It really is so much easier for me now, just not drinking. I don't struggle with it anymore. I still need to be vigilant, but if i did have a drink, it wouldn't be through anxiety or any pressure, it would be a choice, and it would be me, conciously allowing myself to drink again. So there are a few hurdles in place these day's, between me drinking, and remaining af. It's working for me, and my drinking thinking get's less and less, so you have lot's of light waiting for you, Tip!

He decided to get some distance from MWO, Mr. G. That happened Saturday night.
