Hi Everyone,
Still doing great! I did have two (only two!!!) glasses of wine on my birthday (the 23rd), and I will probably have a couple tonight with my family - but that is a far cry from before. I feel a million percent better and my family and friends are so incredibly proud of me. I still just can't believe how easy this is - I keep thinking I will wake up and it is all a dream.

I hope everyone has a wonderful holiday!

FlaMom - Happy Birthday too!!!

WoW on the Wine! What a great gift, huh? I still feel the same way as you -- can't believe it's true.

Take care!

Afternoon Nest check!

Chillgirl, nice to see you today, hope you are having a good day!

FlaMomof3, congrats on your progress, you sound very happy! And Happy Birthday too (mine was on the 19th). Did you ever want to change yours to June or July? I did when I was a kid

Tranq, a sober Christmas Eve and Christmas Day was, without a doubt the best gift I've ever given myself!!!!! Just perfect!!

Keep enjoying the day everyone!

Good Morning Lav a nd everyone else to come, Christmas is over. It was pretty busy and i everything went well. Sat 22 people for dinner. Drank very light on the AL and feel great about it. I'm very glad its over though so now I can get back a bit to focus on me and what I want for myself. and chat a bit with all of you. My 3 kids are still sleeping so I thought I'd try to post quick.

Lav,:goodjob:, You made it through. I am so happy for you. I wasn't able to go on line but my prayers were being sent for you constantly. Even though I new you would do it!

:l, MM

Thanks for the prayers MM - glad you got thru OK too!
I've been checking in here every few hours just to calm the screaming going on in the back of my mind! I had no desire to drink just a strong fear that somehow or another I would screw up - BUT - I didn't so it's time to move on
Thanks for thinking of me, I've been thinking of all of you as well!

Have a great day!

Hey! Way to go Mighty and Lav.

I had a pretty tame Christmas. A nice dinner, a few drinks, but nothing overboard.

Take care.

Hi Lav!

Way to go - a big hurdle overcome. Hey, now you know the next time you make yourself crazy, you just have to pull out your 'special sauce'. Lavand-itude to the rescue! You're the best!

Hi to you Stirly - hope you're doing well!

Take care.

Another quiet Nest day, huh?

Tranq, always good to see you
The 2" of rain we had yesterday washed away all the snow - go figure!
Getting chilly now.

Hope you had a great day!

Newbies Nest

Yep. A good day. Kind of quiet. Just cooking and getting ready for a short work week again.

Have a great Monday!

Take care.
