Oh, a leaky roof, yuck. Things you never know until a big rain comes. Looks like it's stopped here at the moment, probably the first time in a couple of days. Maybe I an get a walk in today, unlike Saturday. I have stuff like umbrellas, rain jackets, but it gets put away for the summer, since it's rarely used.

Hi, Lynnie, good job! The first days are the worst days, glad you made it through the first weekend!
Feels great, doesn't it?

Me and LTG got rained on, but had a laughfest Saturday morning! The Texas Howlers, or maybe the Texas Cacklers? Kept us out of trouble, though.

Yes, it feels dandy indeed! I usually feels a bit fuzzy on Monday mornings but not today!!!:wd:

Hi Lynnie!
Great job on the weekend :h
Saturday was good. We had fun here with some humor
Yesterday not too good. Enough said about that. Today is Monday again so I'm back (and so is the rain, although lighter then the weekend).

Hi club!

Just few words, as I am really busy 2day and my husband is and will be home :eeks:most days for the next 3 weeks due to his very irregular schedule. It makes it hard to get on teh computer.
I love him but when he is at work things seem to be flowing better in the house.

How is everyone doing? My weekend was not AF, we went out on Sat and Sunday but I had only two light beers each night, so I am quite happy about it.

Finallymadeit, I am so sorry that you do not have support from your husband. In my opinion, you are so strong and doing GREAT and have a plan as usual. Hang in there, my friend!

Good night
MamaZ

Much love,

Hi and good morning! Yes 999 does work magic; let's just hope it doesn't get flipped upside down! :H

I am doing well today!! How is everyone else?

HI, MamaZ! Welcome back! We held the fort down while you were gone but missed you. Great on 2 light beers only, that is an accomplishment.
And 999 IS magic, it's a place I look forward to checking in each day (after DrinkTracker of course!).

Hi, Lynnie, glad you're doing well. Let's keep those "9s" upright, this is good magic after all!

Hi again, LTG!

I'm good, too. I did have a dream Sunday night where someone got me to drink a glass of wine, so I finished it and immediately poured another, and then got very angry and upset at them ruining my 35 days, I was so disturbed by it, then woke up and was so grateful it was only a dream. I guess that old attitude of "not good enough" is still lurking in my subconcious, but I'm overcoming it in real life hopefully. That's the first AL dream I've had recently, but have had them trying to go AL free before, but usually just a sparkling cold beer dream!

Have a good day to all and any other 999s to come!

Much Love!!!

Good for you Dancelot on your 35 days? What is your long-term goal? I have never had a dream about alcohol.....lol!

speaking of Drinktracker......I have a question. If one has had 10 - 15+ plus how on earth do they keep track of this? doesn't one stop counting at a certain point? I mean unable to count?

I started AF on Sept. 9 so today is Day 6 for me and feel no problem going forward. This is fun!

:yay:for the 999 club :wd:

Lynnie, we can NOT let it turn upside down1 LOL. That was a good one. Great job on being AF!
It is your WEEK anniversary! CONGRATS!!
Re: Drinktracker: when I used to have 10 or 15, I usually counted drinks from the bottles in the recycle bin.

Dancelot, I could not believe your dream! I had the same dream on Sunday too, except that I was drinking alone and not wine, but Vodka and RedBull. That is strange, as I never drank that before. What a nightmare..literally.

LTG, I saw you in chat yesterday, wanted to hop in, but it was a dinner cooking time here, so I couldn't. I am sorry I missed you.

Cooking used to be fun and a big AL trigger, I usually had my laptop in the kitchen, listened to music, watched youtube etc. with glasses (bottles) of wine close to me and i cooked for 3 days ahead. Now I cannot stand cooking! So boring! And my laptop died, so I had to get a new one and I do not want anything to spill on it. BTW, anyone has Mac? It seems very user un-friendly. I still can't get used to it.

Anniemac, I am so very happy and proud of you being on Day 6! Tomorrow its gonna be a week, right? And welcome to the 999 Club!

How is the rest of this club doing?
Finallymadeit, your drinktracker looks awesome!

All have a great day.

Good morning all!

Yup, today is 1 week AF for me since we all started this thread on Wednesday of last week 9-9-09 (keep 'em up lol!) :H

How is everyone else doing? I lost 5 pounds since starting last Wednesday.

I really like Drinktracker! It's fun to go in and put in another big fat zero everyday!

MamaZ - I agree with you on how cooking is fun while having drink(s). This is what kept me company too and made it so much more fun!! I'm still cooking every night though (kinda have to) but have my water beside me instead. Oh, and I have de-alcoholized beer at home and have one of those ever now and then!

Really enjoy being part of this club everyone!

Group hug for everyone! :groupluv:

I'm at work today but I am fortunate enough to be able to check in here throughout the day!
