    Good evening Nesters,

    Hope everyone is having a good night. Never had a chance to check in this morning, busy!!!

    Lola, hope you are OK, not sure what's going on with your Mom.

    SH, it sure does sound like you are having an allergic reaction to something and/or possibly fighting off a viral assault Enlarged, tender lymph nodes usually means your body is fighting something. Hope you feel better very soon.

        btw snuf,

        I meant to mention to you that taking Rx meds is an option that some people choose.
        I chose not to take any, lots of people don't for one reason or another. That is something you will have to think about

          Hey everyone! I'm just a newbie so take it easy on me!

          Just kidding. I can take it.

          I look forward to my stay here! Cheers!

            hi VS, everyone is gentle here. nearly over day 1 and wanting just the one glass of wine but nothing in the house and kids here visiting. think it will be a very early night and moving on to day 2 tomorrow. AL is just so destructive in my life and the blackouts are getting worse so going to try again and hopefully slay the beast. Best of luck

              Available: you can defeat the AL monster, he's not that strong when you have been AF a while, and have a good plan, have u read the tool box? its very useful when u crave a drink
              I love people who make me laugh. I honestly think it's the thing I like most, to laugh. It cures a multitude of ills. It's probably the most important thing in a person.

                  Back to day 1. Not really ready to talk about it and still need to face all my family. I made an idiot of myself last night. I'll be back later. Hope everyone else fared better this weekend.

                          Hi All. For those of you just starting out :welcome:

                          And for some who have been here a long time, but have just made that tough climb back on the wagon :goodjob::goodjob::goodjob: - you know who you are.

                          It's the toughest thing to do, believe me, I know having done it about a million times. I always felt like such a fool. So embarrassed too, so ashamed of myself and on and on. But what the heck is the good of that. What's done is done. The past doesn't really exist anymore. The future doesn't exist yet. The present moment is all we have so make that the only moment you can make a GOOD moment.

                          What I like to think about is that everyone has things in their past they are ashamed of. So when you thing they are thinking of the stupid things YOU did, don't worry. They have some stuff that comes up in their minds too.....and they will forget your stuff. So hang in there. Day one starts today..:h:
                          Ask yourselves, would you rather be a non drinker with an occasional desire to drink or a drinker with a constant desire to stop doing it?

                                Welcome to Rups and Stella. It won't take you long to feel comfortable here. I think reading through the boards is the most important thing you can do right now - so much imformation. Stella, well done getting to day 8.
                                Irie, stay strong, this too will pass......:l
                                Day 7 for me....yeeha! Have a great day all!
