    Earned my new avatar!

    Good morning, all

    I just wanted to share my sense of excitement. This weekend was the first in YEARS that I did drink, but managed to control it! I even went out to supper, but stuck to two beers. Ditto watching the rugby on Saturday afternoon - normally I would have kept on drinking until the point of oblivion.

    The 1st Monday in a very long time that I feel clearheaded!

    I know there is still a long road ahead, but I feel I can make it. The supps seem to be helping, even if its a struggle to get everything down my gullet :-)

          Thanks, guys

          I feel a real sense of achievement, but am taking care not to let my guard down - as I said, there's still a long road ahead.

          And this progress has been, to a large extent, thanks to MWO and all of you who posted and gave support. I know that I wouldn't have been able to do it on my own!

                      *Prrrrrrrrrrrrrrr* @ cat :-)

                      Thanks, all, for your good wishes. :thanks:

                      I'm determined to keep up progress - I put my plan for today on my cellphone, so that I can look at it often.

                      My mother is arriving tonight, so that is already a change in routine. She's only arriving at the airport at 7.00 p.m., by which time I would already be choking for a drink. I'll take some l-glut before leaving for the airport, and see how it goes over dinner. Maybe I can stick to just the wine, and skip the vodka altogether.
