Hi everyone,
Macca - have you got an ice skating ring near you, thats always a laugh especially with someone new as you can pretend to fall and grab a cuddle without them realising it :l
KTAB - how are you doing today?
Where is stashia?????
Well all is fine on this part of the world, I am in & out all day today with teddy bears picnic up the school with my 3 boys then tonight I have to ONCE again take my youngest son to soccer practice, why is it that my hubby always gets out of taking him, I must admit it is now starting to get on my nerves as he does'nt do alot with the boys, I know he is busy renovating but you would think that the boys come first, but oh no its always about him first. Sorry I just got caught up there in my little rant. But anyway I am tottally fine and I feel really good today
I hope you all have a great Friday
Love ronnie xx

Morning all, Stashia let us know your ok.

Macca I wonder will you take that underhand girly advice your getting from Ronnie, us poor blokes have no chance

Ronnie you could always try whistling 'the teddy bears picnic' all afternoon, that should drive hubby out to soccer practice
On a more serious note talk it through and dont let it become a big argument. One of the reasons I say this is, a row is always big trigger for me, how about you?

Another 4 Day AF BINGE!

Hi everyone
KTAB - I wont argue with hubby about it, there is no point because at the end of the day he will just turn round and say that he is busy working on the house, which I suppose in a way is true, But I also know that when I go out to the practise he does'nt spend all his time working on the house but then again he is entittled to some me time. In my drinking days I would of had a huge row about it, but now I know better. But hey thanks sooo much for your concern KTAB, least someone loves me!!!
Hey Macca - have you decided where you are going tonight, come on dont be shy spill the beans girl!!!!!
Well id better go and get some cleaning done now
Hope you all have a lovely day
Lots of love ronnie xxx

Hi all, Ronnie looks like this thread has gone very quiet.
How are you feeling coming up to Day 30?
It was my plan to mod after but even though it has gone really well for the last couple of weeks it is slowly dawning on me that I need more time AF. Stopping at two drinks just wouldn't happen, yet. Any thoughts?

[ronnie]

Another 4 Day AF BINGE!

Hi KTAB,
This thread tends to pick up a little bit after the weekend thread has finished,
well I am quite nervous about my completion of the 30 days, I have been trying to work out a bit of a plan, but it keeps changing, I think what I will do is just drink on social occassions, but I am a bit like you, I dont know if I will be able to stop after I have had that first one, but also I am going to change what I drink. I was a beer drinker but I think I will go back onto vodka & coke as I like the fact that I can control that drink as I can pour very weak messures. That was the drink that I use to drink if I new that I had to behave myself if we went out!!!!! and it always worked for me, but like I keep saying I think it is a case of trial & error until we know what works for us.
Its a bit like walking into the unknown really is'nt it?? I am very proud of myself that I have managed to get this far and I really don't want to muck it all up and let myself down.
Well enough about me, have you had any more thoughts yet on how you are going to mod? once you start modding that is.
Mr G from TND tread has dared me to go another 30 days but I have declined his dare!!!
Love Ronnie xx

Another 4 Day AF BINGE!

Hi all, Ronnie, I would imagine a lot of us start out on day 1 just sick and tired of the whole merry-go-round that isn't so merry anymore. Then after a while of AF we decide we wouldn't like to give our friend AL up forever, I mean, what would we do at weddings, birthdays, parties, what our friends and peers think etc etc.... We decide then after a period of time that going back to AL and keeping him constantly under control is an option. For some people that is never going to happen. For anyone that can, I admire their self control once they have come down this path of being a problem drinker.
So here I find myself at a crossroads and have decided another 30 days is the way forward. I dont want to ruin the seed of hope I have sown within me. I wish anybody who is moderating my heartfelt best wishes and hope that I too will have it in me to do try it somewhere down the line.
Sorry for the long contemplative post, I have been doing a bit of soul searching this morning.

Ktab - I think you are doing brilliantly. Whatever you decide here on in you wont have let yourself down. If it doesnt work the way you want you now know you have it in you to do at least 30 days AF. Love your analogy re the merry go round, so true I was there at the end of may and decided to step off the merry go round, 8 days later finding my bearings and enjoying simple pleasures again.

Hi KTAB

Think you are making a wise decision to continue another 30 days AF. I completed 31 days AF before Easter, I was so pleased with myself, such an effort. Decided to try modding and lets just say it quickly built back up to previous levels and I am now doing my second 30 days! I had a conversation with my husband at the weekend and his opinion was that it would take 3 continuous months AF to unlearn the bad habits of the last 20 years. I so hope he's not right! But am taking it one step at a time.

Hi KTAB - Are you still feeling as good as me my friend?
