Rare (thankfully!) moment of weakness last night. Moving some furniture to different rooms and got to the room where my wife keeps her alcohol. Just for a brief second my mind went just take a sip. I was able to shut that down quickly but wow, even 6 years into it good reminder that you need to always be vigilant!

Hope everyone is staying safe and healthy! Good time for everyone to review and reinforce the tools in their toolbox, especially with the holidays coming up! Always be prepared!

Glad you got past that bad idea, [MENTION=19771]Elvis[/MENTION]! Luckily after all this time AF, our healthy brains can make logical decisions. For so long that seemed impossible for me. Your post is a good reminder to stay aware - and to be grateful for all we’ve gained.

I hope you have a peaceful, even though unusual, holiday season. NS

Elvis, thank you for that timely reminder. Our AL muscle memory is so strong. I’m convinced that no matter the sober time, it’s something we will all need to be mindful of. The other day I started thinking of spiked egg nog and had to push that out before it took hold!
You are so right, always be prepared! Thank you! Byrdie
