        Jamms, what is your goal? Mod or AF? I know I would say OH SURE, even though I know I shouldn't. It really isn't fair of him to ask that, though. Is he missing his drinking buddy? I am only asking because hubby and I had all the same issues. (I posted a long one on this subject earlier -- I don't think it was this thread though.)

        So what are you going to do?

          Hey Peanut ---- I hear you too ..... I just logged in again because I'm just about at my breaking point .... I feel like I "need a glass of wine" too. I don't know what to do either.

          Let me know how you're going to cope with this .... it's just after 5:00 here ... so my witching hour has already begun!

                Oh God, is it a collective thing? Is it day 8? This is really sucking...Husband brought home a huge desk for my office...we had to try to move it in together (not a good idea, projects together)...it will not fit through the office door...he has to take the door off...now it is a shouting match with an 8- year old, i.e. the husband. Now normally I would just say screw it and pour the wine...BUT I CAN'T DO THAT NOW! And I am f****in pissed! And to top it off it's time to cook- great..just great

                    CS04- My plan is MOD, my hubby does not drink, so it is not a buddy he's looking for...he really is offering to drink some wine with me over dinner and perhaps with a movie(a date night) so I don't over do it...his offer is an offer to help...I do understand how it may not look that way to some...

                    Anyway- I decided to stop and get a small bottle of merlot. I came in the house and told hubby..I must say..he looked disappointed....but he said "ok, are you alright?" I said.."yes" he had breaded the eggplant for me so I only had to fry it and get my potatoes going they are in the oven now and I'm here posting before I get my eggplant prepared and in the oven......

                    I have opened my merlot and poured each of us a glass.....I do not feel guilty....I feel good....I feel confident and very grown up that I can enjoy this wine and have a nice evening.
                    I was so worried all day about the urge but as I sit and sip...I must say it's different now...it's more mature and confident....maybe it's the supps/meds, maybe it's just that I've decided enough of the nonsense...maybe it's MWO

                    anyway...tomorrow will be no HO day 1 for me. I hope the rest of you have a wonderful evening...I'm off to hubby.

                      Sunshine --- you are so right ---- I was feeling panicky there ... I guess I was rushing around with the anxiety. I needed to take a deep breath! I did make myself an tonic and lime while I finished preparing dinner, and then had a glass of milk with dinner.

                      Got past the crisis point and am with a glass of water right now. It's still going to be a tough next 3 hours though!

                      And no, Sunshine, we are not better at this than you! This is the first time for a lot of getting to 1 week. It's taken me since mid-July to get here ..... lots and lots of slips .... but I've kept trying ... that's the key ... never give up!

                      Jamms --- enjoy your "grown-up" evening with your husband. He sounds like a real treasure! I've got a great husband too, but haven't confided in him ... I'm too afraid of failure I think, and disappointing him.

                        Okay, made it through dinner----whew!!!

                        Sunshine, thanks for the encouragement and ditto what ND said - we clearly are not pros at this - hence my hissy fit earlier - but thankfully I have a place to come and vent. Thanks again!

                        JAMMS, sounds like you have a great supporter in your husband. I hope you you guys have a great night and enjoy the eggplant parm!

                            Hey guys - everyone a bit calmer now?? I loved that Sunshine - BREATH - couldn't help but laugh. And we are all just as good at this as the other. All samesies in this battle!!

                            I did go and buy the runners, and my friend there gave me a 30% discount - a sale that is not starting until next thursday!! What a sweetie. So 30% off of $150 is pretty good. Plus - i went and bought a mattress and we will go pick it up right away here - I can't wait for delivery!!!! Man, I hope I sleep well tonight. I am soooo tired!!

                            Jamms - have a nice evening with hubby, just get those kids to bed and relax.
                            Cat - glad you made it through dinner. My ex and I could never do any project together without ending up in a screaming match. It was terrible!!!
                            NewDay - I'll be thinking of you over the next couple of hours.

                            I'm so tired, but have to get back to the store to pick up the mattress. Also, must go to the gym - told my friend I would try out the winter runners on the treadmill, before using them outdoors. I don't know if I can do it though - I may fall asleep and fall down!! Maybe a cup of hot tea and a sleeping pill would do me better! Ha! I keep trying to sleep with out that though - wouldn't want to develop another addiction!!!!

                            OK - gotta go!!
                            xoxo peanut

                              And we are OFF!

                              :goodjob: It's good to get on the thread and see how everyone is doing. Those of you who have hit a bump, I hope will go right back to trying to be AF (if that is your goal) ... you aren't really starting over, because if you keep trying at the end of the month you will find you had more AF days than "bumps". And next month even fewer (or none).

                              Good to hear some are feeling better, too!

                              I decided to not only give up AL, but also my morning caffiene fix of coffee. At least so that I don't have it EVERY morning. So far, so good, AF & CF and few cravings so far, in spite of my new bar job. I even found it easy to tell a couple of customers who offered to buy me a drink (or shot) that "I'm not drinking right now".

                              Keg, I don't know the specifics of your situation, but I generally find it easier when I'm trying to change my habits, for instance eating (dieting) or drinking, to tell the people around me what I am tring to do and ask for their support.

                              Good to see everyone on the thread!

                                Hi everyone

                                Hope you all got through yesterday ok. As someone who has done numerous 30 day stints, I always find days 8/9 hardest. The important thing as someone said is not to give up, keep trying.

                                Have a busy morning ahead so this is just a quick check in. Catch up with all of you later.
