      ODAT - You're not failing as long as you keep trying !!!

      Otherwise I'd be a failure too - and I'm certainly not.

      Sure, I keep stumbling, but it's a rocky path that we walk, and when we stumble, we've got to get back up, brush ourselves down and carry on.

      It's a long road we have to travel - the road of life - but we're here for each other every step of the way.

      Big hugs to you hunny xxx

                        OK, morning Soberers. It's Octover 6th. I have 19 days under my belt. This is day 20.

                        Day TWENTY. WOW. I've posted a few times how the last time i was sober for so long, well, perhaps I was 19. But i'm wondering when was the last time I went this long without ANY AL...? At least age 18. That's a whopping 15 years ago.

                        So, if i can just get through tonight, I'll be heading to the 3-week mark quick. I have my plan/excuses in place:

                        Reasons (for colleagues, not me) not to drink tonight:
                        1. I'm driving
                        2. I have a cold, and don't feel so well (sadly, this is indeed the case :sighbubble
                        3. I've not drunk for 2 weeks prior to running the marathon, and i fear if i have just one pint, i'll fall over.

                        I'll need to assess the situation when i'm there to see if it's an evening I can leave relatively early at. Kinda hope so. (especially cos i'm getting up earlier, and feeling tired earlier these days)...

                        A thank you to Mr G for his advice also

                        Anyway - October Soberers, it's a SATURDAY! Go out and be bad in a good way, enjoy Sober October's first Saturday and let us know what adventures you all got to.

                          Hi Running, how are you doing today? I hope you made it through the night. I did, it was rough but I just sat myself down and read on here all night. So, I guess I made it!

                            Hey Stumpy and the rest of the October Soberers, hope you are having/have had an awesome Saturday. Pleased to say i got through the night... and actually it was a hell of a lot of fun. Spent most of the evening dance like a silly bugger (or as a young, naive, perhaps somewhat immature, female colleague blurted - like some old grandad... me: not amused) BUT it was all in all excellent.

                            It helped that the band were a 'balkan-esque' band so the music was meant for non-stop dancing to, jumping up and down and generally throwing/dancing yourself into a state of reverie. Not like going to see a typical 4-piece band, where folks tend to stand and bop with plastic pint glasses of beer.

                            Hope you are all doing ok. Would be great to hear from you - ODAT? How's things?

                              HI Runningcourage, I got through the night as well, Thursday and Friday night were tough, I rode the waves! They really don't last that long at all. I'm glad the weekend is coming to an end lol! I have a lot of work around the house to do today. I'll be on later. Keep up the good fight.

                                Day 6 for me, feeling very tired after a mega busy week. I'm meant to be going to a meeting tonight about work but it's in a pub and I don't want to go there tonight, I know the other girls are moody about me no showing but I'm just taking care of myself for now
                                Taught my classes, went for a 5 mile run along the sea wall and walked with the hubby and kids in the forest, now sitting down to a roast dinner :H
                                This afternoon is tough cause Sunday is my big drinkie day normally, but determined to stay strong.
                                Hope all other October soberers are ok? ODAT?
                                Lots of love
