Day Three
Wish I could have read the giving a bit more thread earlier, got a bit stressed at work when a colleague asked me to do a few things as she was leaving at 4. I had stuff of my own to do. I don't think she was offended, I just looked busy and flustered!
Craved wine when I was hot and bothered in the office. Most people get cold and turn the air con off. Theres just me and a bloke who like it on.
Hubbie cooked nice seafood salad pasta for tea, had diet cherry coke with it. The craving for wine has gone.
Very very tired today. Early night tonight.
Seems like people are having a lot of ups and downs. My thoughts are with the people having a bad time.
Going to watch Gok make someone over in a bit. I love Gok!

Good morning to all ..... and special :l to all who are a bit up and down but hanging on in there anyway. I'm feeling a shred of determination that has escaped me over recent months. I dont know where it has come from but I'm very grateful to have found it.
Day 4 just starting here. I've just printed out the desiderata to have beside me today!
Desiderata
Girly - PMT sucks. I'm feeling a bit the same myself. But more weepy than shitty. It'll pass.
Little Owl - enjoy Gok! I've never watched it but he sounds like lots of fun!Never give up, for that is just the place and time that the tide will turn

Hi Everyone,
I love reading all your success.... today is day 29 AF, And to be totally honest, I miss the total relaxed feeling I get from drinking, but I don't miss the Hangover, Guilt, & Emptiness!
Still taking the Topa, so far so good!

TECHIE'S 30 DAY CLEAN SOBER CHALLENGE
Today after car trouble in 90f heat I was heading home thinking a cool shower would be nice then catch the early evening sun on the terrace...... With a nice glass of wine, eh quick rewind and changed that to an iced tea. These automatic thoughts are deep in my psyche but within 3 minutes the thought was forgotten.

Hi to All!
Busy day here and have a side job after closing. Going to help a family de-lice. Fun huh:eeks: I was having no drinking thoughts until the lady asked if I liked wine--if so we could share one while I was there. Um...yes I do, but I'm on a cleanse. I am determined not to drop out of this challenge!!
Miss B I haven't read the Desiderata for years. Forgotten how much I love it. My doc used to have it on his office wall. Thank you.
Hoorah for us all! Happy Hump Day!!

Hello everyone here, wow what a lot to read! I really appreciate all your kind messages. Was talking to my friend today and she is absolutely devestated - the whole thing is such a mess. Anyway, thank you all again. Like Chill, I'm reporting in clean, sober and a bit happier than yesterday! Those funny little drink thought moments are strange aren't they? Thankfully they do only last a few mins!! See you all tomorrow and :thanks: again all!

Thought For Day 4
Objective advice
If you were someone else, what advice would you give yourself? If you could step back from being you, and look objectively at what you're doing and how you're living, what changes would you recommend?
It's easy to imagine the straightforward advice you'd give to someone else, because you don't have to follow that advice. Now imagine applying that same level of honesty and objectivity to your own situation.
Remember that you are not your problems, as intimate as those difficulties may feel. You do indeed have the ability to step back and to see clearly what you must do.
You have it within you to rise above every difficulty. You are absolutely capable of knowing and doing what will bring true fulfillment.
Take an honest, loving look at where you are. See the very real and positive possibilities available to you.
Rise above the limitations you've been imposing on yourself. Live your true values and fulfill the best that you know is within you.Outside of a dog a book is mans best friend. Inside of a dog its too dark to read

Good evening all:
Busy day- time seems to be just evaporating!
Mollyka I am so sorry about your friend. My sister's husband recently died, and it is such an enormous loss. Thoughts are with the family.
Love my children to bits, however - roll on first day of school!!!!!While we may not be able to control all that happens to us, we can control what happens inside us.
