Thanks Paula W. Okay since honesty with your self is what works here. Last night, I did have two drinks shortly after my post. I guess it was just being in the house alone and letting things get in my head. All those bad thoughts. I just thought about how shitty I feel. Then after my second drink I decided not to have another. I needed sleep and rest instead. I feel good today. Today was a productive day at work. I work at a big box store. I'm learning some new stuff to help me move up.

Also last night, decided not to beat my self up for my two drinks. I decided to be happy that I was able to stop myself. So, I'm off to order dinner. Then read some Bible chapters. We'll see what happens there. Hubby's home tonight so it should be and easy night to not drink.

Huggs to all you.:h

:thanks: PaulaW and SouthernBelle. The encouragement really helps. I didn't have a drink last night. So, I'm on my way to my Sunday AF plan at the moment.:happy:

Today is my day off after a five day week. Weird to have a normal schedule when you work retail. My body is tired. I'm not used to early mornings everyday. Plus the night I lost sleep because of my binge didn't help. It's hard to catch up on sleep after that. Today I did. I didn't get up until 11:30. I got some decent sleep. I only got up once to let one of my dogs out last night.

Even with good sleep, I know today is going to be a battle. Days off alone are rough on my. The bottle just seems to scream at me from the freezer. I'm not even sure what all my triggers are yet. Hubby is great. He left me a note on the Bathroom mirror just saying how much he loves me. So what a great way to wake up.

SouthernBelle thanks for the Bible verse.

PaulaW from some of the posts of yours I've read on the board it sounds like you are going in the right direction also. I'll tell you what Hubby keeps telling me. He says that it's hard to get healthy from this, if it wasn't so many people out there would be constantly struggling addictions; there wouldn't be AAA and detox centers and all those things. So, he constantly tells me how proud he is for my steps I take and says not to beat myself up for stumbles.:h to you.

Okay, I'm off to got get something to eat. I'm hungry now.

Hi Just,
I found this sight on google as well. I can relate Just i was going through about 1 1/2 40oz of rye a week. I think trying to find things to keep me busy will be the trick too. I was also wondering about all these meds people are talking about. Any info on them would be great.

Whoo Hoo I made it through my day off with out Hubby. I feel strange for some reason. It's hard to put my finger on. I also ate a lot of fritos and had way to many diet cokes. I got so jittery. I decided to have a healthy dinner of salad with salmon in it. I measured out the dressing to make sure not to over do that. Then I cut up some celery sticks and had those with a bit if dressing. I just took my supplements and meds. I'm glad I made it through today even though I feel off.

Thanks Fan and Moosedrool. I'm up and Monday is here. So, now let's see if I can make it to hump day. It helps me to bite of small bits of time. I don't feel so overwhelmed. I feel much better. Still ansy. I don't crave vodka. Instead I could eat all the sweet stuff in my house at the moment. Anyone feel like this. I made myself eat a decent breakfast. So, now am I to throw out all the sweets in the house?
