      Nope I haven't seen hide nor hair of her. I always really hope I am wrong but assume the worst when one of us goes AWOL. Even I know the odds are against all of us staying sober long term.
      Ethanol is a toxic chemical, why would I drink it?

          So I had my first ever (this quit) drinking dream last night. For some reason I was at some sort of fundraiser and bought a pint of Guinness. It was disgusting, you know the first one out of the taps the next day after the pipes haven't been cleaned. So I didn't drink it, strange dream me thinks....

            Sounds delightful..........not. I remember one early on in this quit.............it was a bottle of vodka that poured as slowly as treacle, it was taking for ever and I was absolutely gagging.
            It could be worse, I could be filing.

              Evening.
              There are some good ads on the radio recently here about watching your Al intake. Nothing too pushy, just putting seeds in peoples heads to cut back.. anyway, the website that goes with it here, looks good - but, I think they are really underestimating the 'glass' of wine measure, representing a single unit. As an ex wino, id be delighted to misinterpret this info - whereas the UK drinkaware site tells me that Im actually drinking 3.5 units!
              Just an observation.

              Happy birthday Mario!

              Weird dream Tabbers. Maybe just represents your disgust against AL. Yours was definitely frustration JC!!!

                Interesting dream Ktab.

                It sounds like your subconscious is saying that, whilst alcohol isn't completely OFF your mind, you are no longer DESPERATE for it any more!

                Great dream!

                    I have had a few of them over the years ktab, there so real & it does be a relief to wake up & realise it didn't happen.

                      Hello Mario, thanks for the comments ladies. Yeah what suprised me was that in the dream I didn't want to drink it as it was disgusting, now that has NEVER happened before. I am hoping on some subconscious level I have finally realised that AL does damage to me in every area, it is an anathema to me now and it is self preservation that is kicking in, or maybe I am just talking a load of crap who knows.

                        No ktab, Your not taking crap for what I can see it is you have accepted you cant drink, that's it, Even in your dreams . Its a great freedom not to be battling over the will I or will I not battle, Knowing that if you do have that drink all the crap & dreariness that comes with it. There is not one thing now I miss about my drinking life, not one.

                          Yep Freedom is a good word for it, no wonder we feel so relieved when the penny finally drops.

                              Morning,
                              Decided to do my chores before logging in. I'll be having a nice day stuffing teddies.

                              I see you've had a bad start to the day, marioooooo. Have one of these :huggers:

                              Got a man that can coming to have a look at putting in a new TV aerial and some room sockets (think that's the right word for them).

                              Satzuma you'll be fine, feel it in my bones.
                              It could be worse, I could be filing.

                                OMG Satz I just looked and yep I have been missing for months.

                                HUGE happenings in my life but too long (and exhausting) to retell right now.

                                What I can say is I was REALLY grateful for my 3Ps grounding as I doubt my sobriety (or sanity) would have survived the last couple months without those insights.

                                Anyway I am happy to be posting again and in a much happier frame of mind than in the last year.
