We're Going For 4 Days AF

Hang in there Dove and Providence! Way to go Sara!

Well, it's the morning of Day 4 for me .... this is where I slipped up last week, but I've got plans for tonight. I'm going to a concert and have told the friend I'm going with (who drinks more than me) that I've given up alcohol for Lent. I probably won't be able to post until tomorrow night because I'm a bit nervous about signing in at work (our internet use is monitored), but I'll try to have a read of posts later. Keep your fingers crossed for me for tonight!

Off to start the ODAT thread if no-one's done it yet ... take care, everyone, "see" you tomorrow!

Day 3 for me

although I shouldn't really count Monday as Day One, since I was soo hung over from Sunday's binge. That's okay, I plan to add a few zeroes to that 4

Great day, everyone

UNG, it counts. A lot of people drink on hangover day to get rid of the hangover and you didn't! Day 3 for me, too.

Hey LO, have fun at the concert and keep a strong will. Remember how great you'll feel posting of your success!

Nice news, Sara! Peanut, you sound fantastic!

I'm a bit down today, news in the ODAT thread, but I won't drink. I made a promise and I'll keep it. You guys are fun, cool, strong, supportive and this is great, thanks.

Way to go everyone! Start of day 3. Gonna head to scholl till mid afternoon and then guess what....two birthday parties tonight...one's a suprise...this is why I don't stop drinking...every night is a social activity with booze...I love being around people so much that staying home does not work for me because then I am just lonely and depressed....and I hate it when everyone at the place is drunk and I'm not (they get annoying)...so then I cave and have a drink!
UUUUUGGGGGHHHH!

Lovely day in CO again!

Dove,

It was the same way in school for me. I completely understand. I recently read a great book:

Amazon.com: Smashed: Story of a Drunken Girlhood: Koren Zailckas: Books

...it was great. I just finished it. I'm 48 now so the story isn't as relevant as it would have been 20 or 25 years ago but I'm saving it for my daughter just in case!

We all choose our friends and I know I chose friends who drank because I drank. I did the same into my adulthood, surrounding myself with people who drank, to justify my own drinking.

Lovely 18 here again! But, the sun is still out (I keep telling myself). Anyway, congratulations on yesterday and your start of day 3!

Take care,
Be

HI!

Well today is a balmy -6 here in Canada on Day 3! Better crack out the bathing suit soon, we will be heading to zero!!!! God I hate winter.

I am tired today, going to take it easy. I still have some laundry to complete-it never frigging ends, and I am going to make a nice dinner tonight.

Happy AF days!

Sunshine, where are you located in Canada?

[sunshine_gg]

We're Going For 4 Days AF

Northern Ontario... yeah, I know... "What WAS I thinking?!"

:H How about you, christy?

[christyacc]

We're Going For 4 Days AF

Northern Ontario??? What were you thinking? lol! I am in Southern Ontario, 1/2 south of Hamilton, Caledonia.

I am heading about an hour south of North Bay in a couple weekends to a friends cottage. We were there in the summer but I can't remember the name of the place. Doe Lake? no.....anyway should be fun, no running water....but it's heated and we'll have a good time.

Hey 1more, cke and sunshine! No kicking out for cke!

christy's lost it...bathing suits, aarrghh! I wish. Well, when I lose a bit more weight then. What are you making for dinner? I cannot do another chicken dish.

[christyacc]

We're Going For 4 Days AF

Did I mention I was doing chicken? lol...I am....I hate cooking, too, such the domestic! My husband loves and accepts me, lmao! I am throwing in some cream of chicken soup and the chicken boobs in a pot, and there she be! Maybe some rice, and some veggies (eww).....and some ice cream sandwiches for dessert. I ate THREE last night! This quitting drinking is well, hopefully not going to make me fat!

As for the bathing suit....ya, I have lost it, but, I welcome the heat, the hotter the better. We have a pool (with a nice bar fridge that was stocked all summer--urgg) and we sit back there all summer long. Fat bod in bathing suit or not.....I am thinner this year than last year so that's a plus, lol.

I spoke with cke this morning, and she's good. She's meeting clients all day and won't be on but I imagine she'll be on later.
