    ODAT (One day at a time) Saturday

    Good morning all ODAT'rs

    Just back from my walk with the doggies and decided to get my MWO fix before the teenagers took over the computer!! They stay in bed til lunch time so morning is my only chance.

    Stayed AF last night. It wasnt easy and the cravings were there. Not helped by the fact that hubby had an open bottle of wine!! I had two AF beers and they passed. SO glad this morning that I did not give in. I AM DETERMINED TO STAY AF THIS LENT. There, positive afirmation.

    Hope everyone has a great week-end and achieves their goals.

    Hi Rustop - You sound very determined, and I'm sure you'll succeed!

    I was AF yesterday... trying for Day 2 (again). It's not a matter of IF I can do it, it's a matter of How Much I want to do it...

    But the odds are good, since I'm going to be busy through at least early afternoon with a photo club.

    Then, Sun., I'm at SPCA for most of afternoon.

    Hope all meet their goals and have a wonderful weekend!

      Good Day Rusty and Savvy and all to follow
      Great job Savvy!!!! Keep it up. I had a rough time with cravings last night too Rusty. I went to a meeting and Wham! Godsmack! I found out that my friend that I take to meeting has Cirrhosis. She looked quite yellow last night, and she is still drinking. She is 7 years younger than me and I fear that she will not live much longer. There was also a woman at the meeting who got up for a 24 hour chip, but was very drunk and inappropriate. The poor thing looked awful. These are all "yets" for me. I thank God, MWO, and AA that I am sober and hangover free today. I am off to the Seacoast today to hang with my Sis and have a consult with her hairdresser. The Big interview is on Monday. We are getting a Nor'easter on Monday, just in time for the long drive to the interview. Winter just will not let go of New Hampshire. Ugh. Hope you all have a great Saturday.

          Hi Rusty, Savon, Sea and moo and all to follow. Its bed time for me. Have had a great day, went over the causeway to Malaysia with a big group of friends to go Go Karting, drove up in a big convoy - got lost a few times, and it has to be said I prefer shooting to Karting! I'm so grateful that being AF gave me the confidence to go and take part. Life is DEFINITELY better. I'm still having big cravings, but for whatever reason I feel in control of AL, instead of it being in control of me! I hope you all have the gift of being able to move forward towards your goals (that sounds very Hallmark but it's what I'm thinking!). Happy Saturday B.x

            ODATERS!!!!

            Wowee everybody sounds good! Pats on the back and all that all 'round!

            Rustop, I can't wait to hear how great you feel after an AF lent! I know it's hard when the cravings are there. I had them yesterday too as it was a particularly aggravating day. If it was easy I guess we wouldn't be here would we, LOL. I know you can do this. Stay focused!

            Savvy, good on you for an AF day! Photo club and SPCA sound fun! If you're going to be AF then, why not make AF plans for the other part of the days too?

            Sea, wow. Double reality check at AA last night. It's not like we don't know what can happen. Very sad. So, what is the job opportunity? How far a drive is it? I'l probably be biting my nails for you Monday, LOL!

            Hi mod! Good luck on lent. You and rustop can do it!

            Betty, go-karting! That sounds like great fun! Keep that feeling of being in control!

            Best to all to come. Raining here - for the whole weekend. It is an opportunity to get a paperwork project done that I have put off for 2 years. Two years! That may get a procrastination award of some sort. Going to a movie later this afternoon.

              Rusty, I'm so happy for you! That's a tough one with the HB. I know exactly how hard that is. You're so strong!

              Savvy, great! You sound busy, too, which is so important for me, anyway. Idle hands...reach for wine! Yikes!

              Hey Sea, I'm so sorry about your friend, that's sad and scary. Have fun with sis and I'll have to check the weather here in Upstate NY. Thanks for the heads up. It's 17F here now. Brrrr and ugh is right.

              Hey Moo!

              Sweaty, that's not Hallmark, that's wonderful! Thanks!

              Kids both had sleepovers last night and I didn't sleep as much as I'd have liked to. I'm going to try to sneak in a nap today. I wonder if that's possible. I've got work to do but it can wait a little bit. I have now exercised for two days in a row and feel fantastic! Well, tired and fantastic, LOL.

              Take care, ODATers!

                      I saw Slumdog - VERY good! (Guess the Oscars agree...)

                      Couple of tough spots, but worth seeing. Have FUN!

                            Hi ODATers -- Just checking in. I am enroute from Florida to Virginia. Right now still in FL where I am visiting family. Nobody seems to drink much here so temptation is not an issue. Hope you all have a wonderful day and good luck to all in meeting their AF goals.

                              Walked for a long time today - it was Fun. But ...

                              Drank. For the hell of it. Talked to some people (one in particular) who made me see Reality. And... it wasn't good.

                              Well, hell. I know that I am in a Much better "spot" than most on this planet.

                              But.

                              Oh wellll.

                              Godspeed to you all.
