Hi everyone, I have been reading everyday, but not posted for a while. I am now on day 19 AF and i've been in such a bad mood today, I still have kids that are difficult at times, as they all are, I still haven't found the love of my life and I still have to do all my own DIY (blocked drain and curtain rail fell down today). And I have had a flash in my mind on numerous occasions today of me holding a glass of wine and then reminding myself that I don't just do a glass of wine, i'll do the bottle and then some. So anyway, not drinking is not gonna make all my dreams come true but at least i know I am being me and not false, embarrasing, loud, dangerous, obnoxious drunk me. So it's honest, warts n all life with no mask...does that make sense, I am sober promise xx Sam

Bravo on doing it sober! DIY can be a pain, but you are also talented and self-sufficient. You can be proud of being both self-sufficient AND sober, even if it doesn't feel particularly great right now. Hang in there!

Hi Stoatqueen,

I have to say well done for the blocked drain!!!!

Also for the AF, If I was by myself there is no way that I could do it.

Keep it up, Love paula xx :h :l :h

Congrats on 19 days you should feel very proud of yourself. I can imagine that each day you are challenged with wanting a drink and redirecting yourself to something different. I hope that you are rewarding yourself.

Yes, you should feel very proud of yourself! 19 days is an amazing start! By the way, being a single parent is one of the hardest jobs in the world. You have to wear many hats. Give yourself a pat on the back, and hey - we all have those 'cranky days'.
