    I won't drink today *because*

    I won't drink today because I want to me a good mom, wife and remember this amazing life I have. Bought a lock for the wine cellar today and sending my husband off with the key. Only 27 days to go!

      I won't drink today *because*

      I won't drink today because it's Day 10. Day 10.

      It's my first Day 10 since I my stint that went to Day 35 I think...regardless - I'm not going to drink today.

      Sucky day as it has already been - I am not going to make tomorrow harder by waking up guilty, miserable and sad on top of stressed and upset.

      So - Beast? Here's mud in your eye. Piss off.

        I won't drink today because I hung in long enough for the Antabuse to come today - and just about when the AL lizard brain was going to win and steal my quit - I took the damn pill.

        I don't care how I beat the beast - I just care that I do. So today I won't drink because I can't. And that's enough for me today - while I learn new coping mechanisms and impulse control.

              :H I won't drink today because as K-9 says - I TTDP. (Took the damn pill)

              Actually - I feel really good about it not drinking.

              I won't drink today besides TTDP - because I'm learning how to manage a life without AL - the extra time, how to cope with problems, and how to function.

              I like *myself* without AL. And I like every night that the SO calls before bed - that sense of surprise that he tries to hide - that I didn't let him down - again. I'm going to keep doing that. Not just for him - more importantly - for me.

                What a great thread! Two reasons, one serious and one selfish/silly for me:

                I will not drink today because it slows me down, and I have way too much Life to live.

                I will not drink today because there is a certain dress that I need to fit into, and AL is extra calories I do not need!

                  I will not drink today because... well mostly because it's 10pm here in Australia & I'm heading to bed after making my first landmark goal of 7 days AF a whole week without drinking, probably for the first time in about 15 years (I'm 31). It was not exactly fun, but also not as tough as I thought it would be. Given me confidence that I can manage another week, and not thinking ahead after that. Looking forward to the first Monday in... ooooh don't like to think how long... of going into work without a hangover! Goon night all and thanks to those who have supported me this first (and hopefully harders week), love from Rollergirl xxx

                    I will not drink today because not drinking is key to a better life - one I'm enjoying a lot more than the one I had when I was hung over, ridden by guilt and self-recrimination.

                      I will not drink today because I need to prepare food for my children's school lunches for the week and I can't do that if I drink.

                        I won't drink today because of the effect it would have on me tomorrow.
