Newbies in Need Day 28
Hello everyone. Day 29 for me and one day away from my goal. What a month its been, a life-changing month. Been away for a couple of days to see mam who is still very ill in hospital. She's my motivation, my mam. She doesn't know that I've been following in her footsteps, that I'm more like her than she thinks but seeing her in such a state, really does bring home what that poison does to us. So, day 30 tomorrow mam and I'll keep going- for me, for my family and for you mam. It's too late now but if only there'd been something like this site for her. Be strong everyone, life is so very precious - don't waste it through alcohol. JanicexxxAF since 9 May 2012

Looks like I am succeeding for the most part on weekdays but drinking on weekends. This weekend, i over did it on friday but only had a few on saturday.
This month has been a learning experience for me. The work days have been a lot more clear. when you dont have a hangover there are so many things to do and ways to spend your time.
Janice, I am so impressed you made it so far! Give us some tips please...

Good going Janice! I hope your mom will get better. Looks like you have had some success too Nancy. This is day 9AF for me, headaches persists but are not as intense, more like background noise. The real challenges lay ahead, having company over for dinner, houseguests, etc. For today will just think about today and plan for when guests come for dinner tonight. Maybe 1 non-alcoholic beer?

I am happy to say I made it through the weekend:bow . I did find Saturday the hardest, I went to the store to get some munchies and had to pass the liquior store as well. Going there wasn't a problem. It was when I was going back home that just as I was passing the store I had this overwhelming craving. I wouldn't look at the store knowing that would have been it. I just wanted to share that bit with you all. Hope all had a good weekend.

Janice,
Sorry about your mam. Wonder how old she is.,??Mine is drunk all the time at age 68 I think. I've only known her 2 years. i was adopted and didn't look her up until later. Turned out the whole family was alcoholic.. Bird
