My witching hour is fast approaching. So I'm posting here to stay accountable. Fridge full of beer and an open bottle of wine.

AF Monday - AGAIN!
Hang in there CS!
Yea I don't get the Sunday thing either - but I am typically fired up to drink all day. I typically "sneak" a few in the am thinking no one will notice until normal drinking time. At that point I'm over the limit. Need better self discipline

AF Monday - AGAIN!
Hear you Gear. I am so pissed at myself because I really want to mod. If I can't get ahold of this I'm afraid I'll have to totally stop and not sure if I can do that. I just ordered the book so I'm looking forward to reading and learning

Thats me too. Go to the store to buy a 6 pack to share and sneak in a bonus drink or two in the garage. Really starts to acculumate in the bloodstream by the time everyone else starts drinking. I too want to mod but NEVER know when to stop.

Count me in!I quit drinking on March 8, 2020. Taking it One Day At A Time and no more taking my quit for granted.
Also doing it for me. I got to stay sober for me.
Just consecrate on today and do what you can to remain sober for today and worry about staying sober tomorrow, tomorrow.

Can I just say that Sundays have been the absolute worst for me (especially football season!). It makes no sense because I have to work the next day but it happens time and time again. Last night out of control 6/21/09. Now I am done with work and just trying to relax and this is the time when I really start thinking about having a beer. I am posting instead, its a good distraction!

AF Monday - AGAIN!
Hi all,
Well, I made it yesterday, though I will admit that I was still squirmy till 11:00 or later. Usually if I can get thru witching hour (5:00 for me) and dinner, I am OK but 7 or 8. Not last night, though I didn't cave. I think cause there was AL in the house (beer, which hubby was drinking, and an open bottle of red wine).
I was up at a decent hour this morning, trying to get showered and run errands -- grocery, bank, library. It's raining cats and dogs though -- crappy weather to drag baby all over the place! Oh well -- at least I am not shoveling my car out of 2 feet of snow.
I am not sure about tonight (ODAT) but I need to start thinking about putting better plans in place. Sometimes ODAT, for me, is a little too "fly by the seat of my pants." I did organize my vitamins last night, and while I don't really feel the effects, the act of just taking them makes me feel better.
Onward and upward. Have a great day everyone.

Sundays
OMG Liath I hadn't even thought about football season. A sense of panic and despair just spread over me: I live for football. Its the only time I actually drink cuz I enjoy it - most other times its just because, bored, lonely, angry, sad. Guess being alcoholics we don't need a reason to drink. Having a hard time with both the physical and the psychological this 9th day.
It's the chance of a lifetime, in a lifetime of chance - and it's hightime to join in the dance.... "Run for the Roses"

Re: Sundays
CS- Good job on the AF Monday. I don't know how you do it with AL in the house. That would be very tough for me at this precarious stage.
8Belles- Sorry to bring it up but I also live for football and I don't know what I am gonna do this season. I am notorious for getting too drunk on football Sunday. Watching at home is BORING and I can only watch the game that is on TV.. If Favre plays for the Vikings and I can't watch I am going to have a freaking heart attack. Well, we have a couple of months to figure out a plan before we have to confront this issue. Lets lean on eachother. (Soo glad to finally talk to someone who gets the football thing) Maybe we should start a thread about it. I bet there are other diehards out there. Who is your team anyways? I am a Packer fan all the way.Liath
