Hi, everyone. I took my dog for a walk right after work to redirect the habit of walking in the door and pouring that first glass of wine. Today at work, I really wanted that glass of wine, but stayed strong. Knowing you were all here and that we are in it together makes all the difference. Thank you all!!
Now tomorrow and Thursday may be harder because the person that has been my biggest trigger to drink lately will be coming to town. Recently, most every really bad episode has been connected to him. He is kind of a part-time roommate. He is supposed to be out June 1, but I need a plan for the next couple of days. Usually, either we go to dinner and then he takes me to a bar (bad idea) or he says he's going to take me to dinner and decides he has a better offer and then I feel rejected and drink myself to oblivion at home alone. Knowing I can come here helps a lot. I can do this.
