Anyone in the First Week of Their Unpteenth Quit?

[paulywogg]

Really rough day for me, mood has been a pisser for a few days off and on,hit me full force today was so bitchy at work, couldn't shake it, luckily had a antabuse with me took it on the drive home, I started having thoughts and my legs started shaking with anticipation, NO WAY can I go back there! I don't know what has caused my mood to plummet all of a sudden? I have NOTHING onmy mind to worry about, rents paid, bills are being paid, sheesh

Pauly, BG has been doing the Dr. Hymann detox and she swears by it. Maybe could you try that? Or at least look into it? What if your mood swings and allergies are food related and could be cleared up by just adjusting your food intake. Sure wish you'd check it out 'cause I love you and want you to feel better!

Hope everyone had a great easter weekend, it is a short work week for me , just another reason to celebrate. Although the chocolate intake was a bit excessive, detox diet here I come!

We live by a canal and my kids love to feed the ducks, love hearing the stories about them. We even have special duck food for them from the pet store. Can't wait to they finally arrive, our canal is still frozen go figure! Spring can't arrive soon enough.

Pauly, what can we do to help, you know we all want to....

[paulywogg]

Thanks Cowboy ugh,this too shall pass, I'm just glad I had the antabuse at this point, I'll do whatever it takes to not drink, I can't afford to give it any more power over me

[abcowboy]

Perfect mindset Pauly!

[Lizann]

Aww Pauly, sending you hugs!!! Who know why and does it really matter? I'm here for you! Glad you had the Antabuse , proud of you!!!!

[open halo]

Those pangs are hard to deal with pauly, proud you made the awesome choice to kick AL to the curb. :hug:

Hi guys! Where is everyone today? Got home from work and no one is around either. Enjoying a little down time till they start filing in. Taking hubby out tonight for his birthday dinner. He's such a ham, he'd let this celebration last all month if he could, kid at heart he is. Cowboy, no post this morning? I actually got on a few minutes at work and there was nothing to read. Hope all is ok with you. Just enjoying this cool rainy AF day. Check back later if it's not to late.

Hard to get on with my iPad today at work -- ipad was in and out��. Don't know anyone else but I am hanging on by a thread...

[paulywogg]

Hey all, piper, I was like that yesterday please try and hang in there, if I'd have drank yesterday I'd be feeling like Shit today, and I actually feel pretty darn good today didn't get my walk this morning, it's too windy and cold(for Vegas) I just skipped it I know that's not good for me though, didn't have time to post this morning cuz I layed around too long and time just flew! Came home and checked the thread and I think I saw a tumbleweed go by hahaha, took a quick lie down to rest my brain before Louie comes over, after dealing with people all day I need that tiny reprieve, thought of the guy from the red hot chili peppers(when he was hot)it was a nice break from reality hope dinner is good Liz hope everyone checks in later, have a good 'un

[Lizann]

Hang in there piper! Just take it one minute at a time! Check in here often and just read, read read. Can you reward yourself with something else, maybe chocolate, a nice dinner. You'll feel so much better for not having drank! PM me if you need, I'd like to help. I'm taking very slowly myself.

[abcowboy]

Howdy everyone! You're right Liz, I was here for about an hour this morning over coffee before work, but danged if I could think of anything meaningful to say. Not fighting AL urges, but this extremely slow coming of spring is messing with my usual cheerful mood. Woke up to snow again!! Just when the country roads are starting to dry up, we get another shot of wet weather! I'm getting tired of wearing rubber boots haha. Maybe God is trying to tell me to invest in a car/truck wash business lol

Piper, nice to see you back! Keep posting and reading! If you don't, then the people here won't know how to help. And they do help, a lot, take it from a guy who knows!

The thread has been a bit slow, probably due to the holiday weekend and the full moon on Friday lol. Looking forward to our 5 days in Vancouver with the girls at the end of the month, winter and spring have been too busy, and a bit of a holiday before seeding starts will be just what I need! I can hardly wait to get back in the tractor seat this spring, just something about it that makes me feel at ease..

Ginger, Chief, BG, OH, Liz, Pauly, and anyone I forgot lol, it's all you guys that help me keep my quit strong, thank you! I think when I'm letting auto-steer do all the work during seeding, I'm going to write me a poem all about us Quitters, seems like the right thing to do! Have a great one my friends, stay strong!

[open halo]

I agree Cowboy stay strong, and take it one day at a time. Here's a story my grandpa told me that always makes me laugh:

My grandfather retired in Florida, he was always a big walker, walked everywhere, and once he retired he would walk with a friend of his every morning, they would meet at 5 am at a walking trail near their homes. They liked to start early and beat the Florida heat!

One day they ran into an old work buddy at a coffee shop who had just recently retired and asked if he would like to join them for their morning walks. He thought it was a great idea, exercise and companionship in one! Then my grandfather told him where they met and that they started their walk at 5 am. The man replied, "Listen I'm retired, not retarded, I can't believe you guys walk every morning at 5 am!" My grandpa found that very funny!

Have a great day everyone!! Piper you can do this!!

Cute story OH I always thought older people were early birds but I've noticed that a lot sleep in like teenagers haha, wish I could but no can do, I hate to see the thread so slow but at least we're here, I can't believe how many people come and go at MWO, I think some come here on day 1 swearing they're never drinking again(we've all said that) then get sucked back in or something, I may be on my umpteenth quit but at least I don't give up, plus I've made some awesome friends along the way, hope everyone has a lovely Wednesday and I hope it goes fast)
