    I am not going to drink today.

    Sara you rock!!!! So proud of you. And a sub 5:50 pace is pretty darn good!!! :happy::yay:

    That's where it all starts.....5km. I found that entering a race really helps to keep me motivated and on track to train (although in the past I am very GUILTY of skipping workouts because I was hungover - ick)

    BradKelly....it pains me to see you struggling. Please, please see a doctor. Start this process for your life - you deserve it!

    Had a great run this morning and weight training session.

    I will not drink today. I work tonight so no AL on the job...and I will rest my sober happy guilt free head on the pillow tonight!

      Thanks Choochie and Meech! Hope both of you take pride in resting your " sober, happy, guilt free" heads on your pillows tonight!

      I've taken to putting a slice of lemon in a glass of cold, cold water to sip...very refreshing. Tonight's movie night in our house - fun with the kids and I'll be wide awake for it!

        Oh no, I'm not struggling. Today I made it through the first AF day after a bad week, and normally I would have been as miserable as hell and tranqed up on xanax. Today, except for a brief but helpful early morning incident (no booze), I have been totally AF and tranq free, and having a ball doing some hard work.

        Thanks for your concern though.

          Hey SaraSmiles,
          Congrats on finishing that race well. I haven't been able to run in several years due to orthopedic and neurological issues - but I can ride my bike like the wind! My currrent challenge is cutting down a bunch of invasive buckthorn trees.

          Brady, I'm glad you are not struggling. We all would love to help you pull through this challenge.

              AF for me today too. Antabuse takes care of that option. Should have taken it years ago.

              Hope all have a peaceful day.

                Feeling stronger than every - no way am I drinking today and giving up my over-the-top healthy, happy feeling! Slept 9 hours last night - shocked at the quality of my blissful zzzzzzs!!

                  All Right Choochie, Lucky and Mishmash! WTG!!! Hello Sunbeam - I'm always so glad to hear from you! :l

                  I am not going to drink today because I have so much to do before having family here for Thanksgiving! Every time I start to get stressed out, I think, "that's okay...I won't be drinking, so I'll have energy, focus and time to get things done!" Woo-Hoo!

                  Now to tackle this messy house!

                    I'm not going to drink today cos my 16 yr old asked me this morning if I would give him a lift home from his part-time job tonight as the buses stop early, - he wouldn't have dreamed of asking me that a year ago.

                      Mollyka - that makes me so happy. Aren't our kids sooooo worth it.

                      Bradkelly - So glad you are having a better week. Onwards and Upwards. ODAT - that's what I have to do.

                      Having a house full. It's potluck tonight with an Italian theme. And I have whipped up a yummy sparkling AF punch to enjoy. Plus a truck load of authentic Italian food - That's always important in keeping the cravings away. However all the food may not keep me in good standing for Techie's Boot Camp though....oops. Hopefully Sarge doesn't read this thread....:H

                          Nothing to drink for me today. I sang in a chorus for a concert, including the Finale to Beethoven's 9th Symphony. You can't do that with an alcohol-laden brain.

                            No AL here.
                            I quit drinking on March 8, 2020. Taking it One Day At A Time and no more taking my quit for granted.

                            Also doing it for me. I got to stay sober for me.

                            Just consecrate on today and do what you can to remain sober for today and worry about staying sober tomorrow, tomorrow.

                              I will not drink today either. Antabuse has scared me straight, thank God!
