Oh, ok Zige, now I understand as to the urge to drink. Wow you must love the snow to live in Maine. Good luck with Bertha and the snow storm. Hope they restore power before too long.

Amelia, sorry about the counseling but congrats on the number of days.

Fjones, you're getting, dear. Hope you get some well deserved rest.

Wakupmom, Cindi, Ripple, and everyone else have to go as I'm having guests tonight. Will post later. Take care.

Hey Cuckoo, I was thinking just that yesterday and had just come on to post a 'Happy Sunday' message!!

So, HAPPY SUNDAY EVERYONE.

I am at Day 12 today and feeling pretty damn good I must say. I can not tell you all how much easier it is to be abstinent now that my partner is doing it with me.
Alcohol has pretty much left my world and my mind - which is the hugest relief. It does feel like freedom it really does.

Last night I had some very clear dreams about being in a house somewhere with my partner and 'sneaking' drinks and then being in such a panic that he may find them. I even dreamt, that I looked at myself in the mirror all bleary eyed and wondered how I was going to manage to keep this up. What a dream huh?? Thank god the reality at the moment is the complete opposite........
So, being AF in reality, with a partner who is the same is bliss compared to the daily nightmare I was putting myself through JUST to get booze.

Looking forward to many more AF days and wishing the same for all of you.

Good Morning Cuckoo, Amelia, and Wakeupmom,

Just checking in as I didn't have much chance yesterday.

Had a wonderful evening with the grandkids, we made sugar cookies and they decorated them. It was a lot of fun even though the cookies are more icing than cookie.

This is one of the things I can enjoy now that I am sober.

Funny, Amelia, I had a dream last night of a similar nature. I dreamt I got up and drank a bunch of wine and went to work and fell asleep in a meeting. I was as embarrassed as I would have been if that had actually happened. Perhaps it was my mind telling me it is just a matter of time before I do something horrible like that if I were to keep drinking?

Anyway, hope everyone has a great Sunday.

Love,
Cindi

Good morning Amelia, Cindi, and Wakupmom. Glad everyone is back.

Amelia, congratulations on day 12. Way to go. Even more important I think is how well you are feeling. You sound great. Glad boyfriend is going AF with you. Can't even begin to imagine how hard it would be trying to go AF when someone in the house was still drinking. When I tried to do it, I always found it too easy to use as an excuse not to succeed. Amelia, I couldn't be happier for you.

Wakupmom, glad you are over your bug. It's bad enough getting sick but it really stinks when it happens around the holidays because there is so much to do. My bash went okay but I did have 2 1/2 glasses of wine. As I said on a post it was worse than I intended but not as bad as it could have been so I'm not beating myself up too much. Enjoy your Christmas lunch today and look forward to hearing from you tomorrow.

Cindi, it sounds like you had a day made for Christmas memories, yesterday. Baking cookies with the grandkids sounds great. Some how it isn't surprising that they get carried away with the icing. That always seems to be the case with kids and baking decorations. I hope your Sunday is special too.

Prose, hope you are enjoying your time off. Look forward to hearing from you when you get back to a computer.

To everyone else, hello and I hope you are all doing well.

Cuckoo

Dearest Wakeup, Cuckoo, Cindi, Prose, Fjones, Maggiemoo, Ripple, Keeper and everyone else!!! Hello to all of you, I hope the lead up to Christmas is not driving you all mad with shopping and parties and general merriment!!!

Wakeup, I think I have missed you, if you do check back in, I hope your holiday is absolutely blissful. May your time spent with your ex be fun, easy and without worries and the time spent with your kids be full of laughter and love. Come back with a double tan girl (some for me too please!!). Have a great Christmas over there.

Cuckoo, hope the pupski isn't running rings round you and the Christmas tree. Other than that sounds like you are doing well and are in fine form!! Thanks for the congrats on Day12.

Cindi, yes I think our dreams are definately trying to tell us something, or we are trying to work through something. Or maybe mine was just reminding me how stressful it was to sneak in drinks and try and hide them??
Yep, your dream sounds pretty (mortifyingly) embarrassing too!!

Prose, I know you were going to be away for a while honey, hope you are doing ok. Looking forward to having you back!!

Hello Sweetpea, so nice to see your post!! Thankyou for you lovely message xxx

To everyone else, wishing you strength and happiness for the next week or so leading up to Christmas!!
