Good Morning Abbers,

I hope all are doing well today and are feeling great.

It is so good to be sober, no matter what is going on in my life, sober is better than drunk and then hungover. Period.

Love,
Cindi

Hi Everyone: We had the little g-sons overnight & then to the park this AM. All is peaceful now, & it's moments like these that I feel grateful to be a g-parent (dropping them off at home was a welcome relief). It was good reading this thread today. I need the support at the moment. Take care everyone. Mary

Hi Abbers,

Kind of quiet here. Maybe some of you were like me yesterday. I read through all the posts, and then the phone rang and I signed off. I never found a moment to get back on and post.
I'm here at day 9. Feeling solid but ever vigilant.
Charlee, I heard weather in NE should be partial/partial clouds for Sat. We are having people over on that day so I have been watching the weather forecasts. I hope you all have a wonderful day.!!

I've been trying to follow DG's advice and rent tv series or shows to watch at night to distract myself from the thought of wine. I've rented several BBC series which don't show on major stations here and have enjoyed them thoroughly. Most evening I only watch about 20-30 minutes but it really relaxes me and now that I've made it a totally AF experience I find that I don't think about wine at all while watching. I've even changed the chair I sit in while watching. It's my AF chair!!!
Have a great day abbers. It's always nice to know that you(or your thoughts) are always here when I need you.
