    ODAT Thursday November 4

    Good morning everyone. Awoke refreshed and feeling good today. Made it through another night. Tonight I will be out and about as teenagers chauffeur for tutoring, so I should be good. Make it through tonight, and I will have reached my weekly goal! Didn't do well at all last week, so I am looking to make it up this week! Went out for a little bit of shopping this morning at a thrift store. Now I just need to tackle my own closets and take some items down for donation! I have a hard time letting go of my things though. Maybe soon. Best wishes to you all in reaching your goals for today!

    Happy Almost Friday! Today is my day four and for that I am thankful. I am realizing that I don't so much have cravings for the wine, but I drink out of HABIT. I love to cook, and love my glass of wine when I do so. Last night I was making dinner and instead had a nice glass of spicy tomato juice with lemon in a wine glass while I cooked. I didn't even miss the wine. Had fun with my kids while I cooked and felt good actually. I realy need to retrain my brain. I certainly get more done when I am not sipping (or glulping) wine. Hope everyone has a great AF day.

      Let's be free of AL today. Count me in for sure! Wagon - the habit of drinking is hard for me to let go of too. Of course, EVERYTHING for me from 5 pm on centered around it, so I'm working hard to get rid of those associations. Cooking was a biggie for me too. I drink hot tea as my replacement which seems to help - sort of a ritualistic feeling to the tea, and it's soothing. I like your spicy tomato drink idea too - will have to try that.

      Have a productive, happy, healthy AF day everyone!:l

      Hugs,

        Hey All! Cooking and wine were a hand and hand habit for me too. Once in awhile I will allow, but not every day. I like the spicy tomatoe drink too. It's actually been awhile since I've had it. It will be my new kick! Thanks and yes--healthy, happy productive day to all!

          3 down _ _ to go

          Great idea this ODAT board. It is so helpful in the first 30 to just stop in and read & or post. Makes me actually think about what I am doing and why. After the 30, at least for me, it then becomes a choice ~ Do I want to drink or not? ~ Nice Avatar Wagon, I also love to cook but when drinking I cook all kinds of food that are not 'very' healthy and when I don't drink my colander is filled with the things I see in your bowl. Here's to day 4 without drinking.

            Evening all. Its a very strong windy one here and it started ths afternoon some drizzely rain also. Day 4 for me too. I used to love a few glasses of wne before during and after cooking i would mostly get tru 2 bottles from late afternoon. Way too much way too often. Haven't had strong cravings so far but the thought is always there. I have a head cold and my sinius are blocked so not feeling so well. Just took 2 Ibrufen for the pain. Helps a bit. Might get to bed a bit early. Have a lovely evening whatever your plans and wel done on your success today.
