    On to 21 days one day at a time.

    Hi Gang

    First off I must say thank you to everyone on this site. I would not be here at day 15 with out you all.
    I was going to stay in Maine longer and catch a Celtics game with a friend but figured it might be to slippery for me early on being AF.
    So I am headed home tomorrow bright and early and can,t wait to see my dogs that I love so much.
    This trip was a great trip, had some quality time with my Mom and noticed how much more aware of my sisters feelings and struggles. In short I was a better brother and a son.
    I will get to spend the day with my Mom today and maybe see a buddy and watch him drink a beer and drink some water with lemon it it.

    Be safe out there, Watch for the triggers and have a great AF day.

    Thank to you all again.

          Got the urge to drink. Had a tough visit with my mom today.
          Now in a hotel room so I can catch early flight tomorrow at 5 am.
          This is really the first time I have wanted to drink on this trip.
          I will keep checking In with you all. I don't want to blow it now.
          Just a very hard day. Really want to be home with my doggies.

          Thanks you all in advance.

            Hi Rednose .... Just saw your last post .... hang in there! Tell yourself you are "choosing" not to drink ... don't let AL be making the choices! Can you go for a walk? ...(I don't know what time it is where you are) Just a bit of exercise and change of environment can help.

              I could go for a walk but it is freezing rain here.
              Good advise make the choice not to drink.

              Thanks. I just need to make it another 6 hours.

              I appreciate your help.

              Last thing I want to post on here is back to day one.

                We are having the same freezing rain here too ... after Friday's big snowstorm, lots of melting today with some rain, and now it's all going to freeze over tonight. Should make for lovely driving again tomorrow.

                At least you've got the internet ... just keep posting, reading, etc for a bit ... that will get you through........ and have a safe flight home! ... take some snacks on the plane too.

                  Hang in there, it's only a few more hours and think how proud of yourself you'll feel when (not if!) you don't give in. You would be so disappointed if you made it all the way through this trip and then fell at the last hurdle.

                  Remember, you're not alone in this. Many of us are fighting cravings right along with you. We can do it!

                  I didn't come this far to only come this far.

                    Thanks all,
                    You women will be proud. My hotel is next to a great
                    Mall so I went out and did some retail therapy.
                    New clothes for when I get skinny again.

                    I am hanging in there ok.

                    Thanks for the support. Hope my flight gets out in
                    The morning with this freezing rain.
