My plan to stay AF this weekend

[daybyday]

Top 10 Ways I plan to stay AF this weekend:

1.) Stay connected to MWO
2.) Stay away from social situations with drinking involved
3.) Get lots of physical excercise & rest if needed
4.) Start taking L-Glutamine
5.) Listen to AF hypnosis tapes
6.) Stay in and watch movies at night
7.) Drink lots of water
8.) If anxiety is very bad, take an ativan
9.) Work on my art projects
10.) Work on our outdoor pond & gazebo

(oh ya, and not to drink!)

Good for you Daybyday.
I've already undone my good intentions this weekend (had almost a bottle last night) but tomorrow it's May and that's as good a starting point as any.
Identifying triggers and preparing for them is what I need to do. My ex is a huge trigger on occasions and he's unpredictable, so I need to prepare for the worst and avoid the alcohol anaesthetic.

Remeber the devil is always there to tempt us - just look him in the eye and say 'Devil do one coz I am NOT giving into your temptation'.

The red wine is devil blood - the white is devil urine - the rose is a combination of the two - any other types of AL is his fire water and man that is going to burn.

Have a great weekend

Katie, sounds like you have a great plan for most of the weekend. Maybe you can find something special to do for yourself on Sunday. I'll be thinking of you this weekend, big hug!

DBD, way to take control of your plan for the weekend, and have "the power" over the alcohol. What a great reminder for all of us.
