I have to take a trip back east next week to Maine to visit my mom in the nursing home. It is a really sad place for me and to see her in there. And I always feel like drinking when I leave there. So I am going to buy an I pad so I can stay in touch on this site while I am away with nothing to do.
Maine is a trigger for me for sure. Friends know I am coming home and are emailing me to get together and have a beer or ten.
Why don't people call you up and say hey lets go get a lemonade or lets go for a walk.
So I am preparing myself for the trip and am going to use the same line as I did last night. No thanks I am on a strict diet and Alcohol is out for me until I lose the 25 pounds I am aiming for.
I also have a offer to go to Cabo with some friends but I am going to pass on that. Somehow Cabo and not drinking don't seem to go well together. Maybe next year when I am on more solid ground I will take the trip to Cabo..
Got to get my run in today. I am sure the dinner last night did not help with the pounds.
But I did not drink and for that I am very grateful.
I appreciate all your support. I wish I was more help to you all.
rednose :thanks:
