    40 Days and 40 Nights

    Feeling so good but also so weak. Don't want to drink. No need for it. But I am taking this one day at a time, and it's a bit like driving on the motorway with your eyes shut - exciting but fearful of the inevitable pile up

    When will I have to challenge the thought of the long term. Will that send me back? Surely I can't keep this up forever? I will be stopping so much that I enjoyed. But I have to do that to avoid the huge downsides. Oh poo! The thought is too big to ponder for too long.

    Softy when I ponder the long term, I think about all the things I have gained and will gain. I really, really haven't lost a single thing. I am still the same person. I still love the beach and enjoy gardening and cooking. I just don't make an ass of myself every time we go some place or have a special day.

      Good way of thinking, I like it!

      Trouble is I am as much of an asshole sober as I am drunk:durn:

        I recommend probably just don't think about the long term. Think about today and how unappy you will be if you drink today. And just leave it at that. Tomorrow will take care of tomorrow.
