    ODAT - Tuesday

    Morning all.

    Lovely day here - God I slept well last night. Almost too much. No alarm and didn't wake until 8am!!!! Maybe I am in time out mode already. We're off for a two night break in some lovely hotels. Only in the next county but it is a lovely one and it does mean less travelling and we are not too far away if anything goes badly tits up here with holiday lets/animals.

    Another AF night last night. Think I will probably want to mod over the next couple of days as we will be eating out in nice restaurants but I have set a limit of 3 glasses max. That can be one before eating, one with the meal and an optional third after. No more.

    Hope you all have a great couple of days. I'll catch up with you all when I get back. I'll be thinking of you, because I will not want to come back and tell you all I overdid it so you'll be keeping me on the straight and narrow even though I can't be on here!! The power of MWO!

    Enjoy your break Bessie! You are a real inspiration
    Weather here in east Anglia is beautiful at mo. Yeaterday in UK was bank holiday and so our family went out to a forest for walk/picnic/bike ride.Had a lovely time. All shattered at end of day and kids wouldn't settle into bed. This is when I usually turn to drink to give me the energy to keep going but just struggled through and ended up falling asleep with my 2 year old on her bed!:H
    So no al and I've woken feeling very good!
    Tonight will be tough as got councelling with hubby then he is straight off travelling and I need to get the 3 kids to bed . ....
    Have stocked up on flavoured water/ tonic etc so hopefully can make it through.
    Best wishes to you all!

      Welcome to a fellow East Anglian Evie! Good for you going AF last night. The more you do it the better you will feel. No alcohol wine is a good one for me to have in stock. If you want to know where to find it and how much etc pm me. I am one of their best customers!! LOL!!

        Good morning Bessie and Evie, you UKers have been up awhile, and we are just stirring in the states. Last night had cravings and gave in, only 3 glasses, won't have anymore in the house at any time to avoid the WTF feeling that comes after that. And I would never go out for more at that point, either. My goal is AF during the week and mods on weekends... however! I feel like I should try for 30 days but have not been able to do that yet. And I screwed up Monday, but I won't drink the rest of the week, will take every supp that I have. Good morning to all to come. :h Suz

          Beautiful day here in Chicago.

          Bessie - enjoy your break, starting today off with a sleep in and a plan is a wonderful beginning.

          We will miss you but can't wait to hear about everything when you return!

          Have fun!

            Hey guys,

            Bessie have a great holiday - good for you for having a plan - that will help you immensely! I had an AF night last night as well - quite easily. No smokes either - doing great on both fronts! It is getting so much easier!

            Today is another AF day for me - too much to do and I need to have a good nights sleep so I don't intend to drink and screw it up!

            Hope everyone has a great day!

            Love and Hugs,
            Uni

              Hello to everyone, just a quick check in, I managed my first AF day in a long, long, time yesterday but have decided that I really have to commit to at least 30 days or else I feel it will be too easy to slip. So thank you all for your kind welcome but I will pop over to the abstinence board for this month.

              Thank you all once again and good luck to all and see you around soon.

                  Morning All,

                  My injured kid is feeling much better...wants to go to school late. Which means cutting my day in half and making it tough to get anything done. Grrr. But a kid who wants to go to school has to be a good thing...

                  Bessie sleeping until 8:00 am - now that's news!!! Enjoy your time away

                  Evie, I was once like you - I had 3 kids under the age of 4. I drank my way through many alone nights - I had a scare with my youngest (asthmatic) and had to pile everyone in car to go to Dr. I shouldn't have been driving but felt I had to. All turned out well - but really not a chance I would ever want to take again. Not trying to scare you, just not great to be loaded when you are the only one home with the kids. (no judgement here - I've only recently cleaned up my act!!!) Best to you.

                  Was going to acknowledge all but kid needing me...

                      Good day all! Weather report is great again today! Had 1 Bud Light Lime last evening. Now THAT'S another 1st! It seemed to make me bitchy though. Several triggers throughout the day...nice weather.
                      Am doing a "cleanse" so not suppose to have alcohol or coffee anyway. I imagine that 6-pack will last me quite awhile. I've gotta think the cd's are changing the way I think about AL. I'm not very taking the allone or most supps right now. The support and comaradre (sp) here plays a big part also.

                      Have a great day all!

                              Hi Bessie -- Love to All

                              Yes, I have been on a bit of a vendetta past few days but planning to sober up tomorrow. And in a few days my antabuse will arrive and maybe I will get a new life. I wish you all the best and hope you are happy.
