Thats great sparkle. I am doing well so far today. I did 30 minutes of yoga, took the supps, etc.. Feeling good. Just think we can feel good every day if we stick to the plan!

Welcome Jada. We are going to be so proud of ourselves after 60 days. I am determined. Going to do things by the book!

Sparkles, Jada, welcome. Liath I am so glad you had a productive day. So did I in the end - my dad challenged me to write a short story entitled 'Bovril' (for those who don't know what it is, it's a bit like Marmite or vegemite only made of beef extract). Yes my dad is a nutter!

I spoke to him earlier today and he said he didn't expect me to have done it what with all that has been going on. So I cleaned up the house a bit so that when I come to move out I'll get my deposit back - taking the preparation a baby step at a time - and then sat down and wrote it.

I just texted my ma to tell her to tell dad, if he was still awake (he's usually in bed early) and apparently he leapt out of bed to get to the pc to read his email!! Hahahaha, I am just waiting for his response now. It feels good being creative again, even if it was only a silly thing really.

How has everyone else been? Lots of hugs to all restarting the journey and with those that never left.

Hi all,

It's been a quiet Sunday for this thread - where have you all gone?! Or are you off living life? I am just checking in due to the recent slip so you know I'm still here and getting on with it. Tried some experimental cookery today (no that doesn't mean it went wrong) and have watched quite a lot of trash telly (shame). I hope next weekend I will have fully recovered from the lurgee and will plan to do more stuff (if the weather improves).

Take care all,
Kim

Sorry, should not have posted here.
I did not expect anyone to save me. I know so well this is my problem to solve.
I was feeling pain and thought I was at the right place.

Grace,

Put your mesasge as a new thread. You will get more responses there. It is somewhat burried on this theat.
I feel your pain, as someone who has been very disappointed in romantic relatinships. If this is what keeps you drinking, you may have to face the reality that no one can save you...
I hope you will find solace here...

I did well over the weekend, I got 2 days AF in a row. What a struggle. My husband sat and drank a bottle of wine last night and normally I would join him but I just kept telling myself that maybe later I would have a glass. I am proud to say that I didn't. What will today bring? Who knows but I will take my L-Glut and Kudzu and do my best.

Grace,

I am sorry if I offended you in my last post. This is a great place and you will get the support you need, especially when feeling low.

Sorry Grace I must have been in bed when you posted! Or I would have answered! I always check this thread. If you want to post again feel free, but bear in mind we're all across different time zones here! Go to chat if you need to talk immediately maybe?

Well done Sparkle - the weekend are almost always the hardest to string the days together, so good for you, especially with someone drinking right next to you. I can now handle that fine, but I remember when I used to HATE it. I would want to throttle the person, whether it was my partner or friends. Keep on going if you can!

New Me.......I was just very low last night and vulnerable. I went on too much about my personal problems and didn't perhaps express my thoughts correctly. After a nights sleep feel much more optimistic. Not drinking! Thanks
Kimberley,
Thanks! I am posting today, another day of not drinking! I needed sleep badly last night and I now feel much better!

I ended up having 2 rum & cokes last night. My husband and I went out to dinner so I thought I would give it a shot and not over do it. I am very proud to say I didn't, I only drank 3/4 of the 2nd drink which is a milestone for me. My husband drank too much and I found it difficult to be with him if I'm not in the same condition as he is. I went to bed early to get away from him.

Good for you Saving Grace - I am glad you have chosen not to drink. I think I'd quite like to meet the real you on this thread. If you need any help or support, post away!

Sparkle, that's great that you were able to moderate- you must be very proud of yourself. I will do the mother-wagging-her-finger thing though and just say to not become complacent, just based on my own experience. Before now i have modded a few nights successfully then zzoooooooooooommmmmmmm back where I was! Keep it up.

Kimberly,

Thank you for the very wise finger shaking, I needed it. I am planning on staying AF tonight although I was thinking about a glass of wine. There is no point in it.
