Pavati, Humble and Available: Thank you for the congrats! It really is a big day for me, and I catch myself walking around with this stupid grin on my face. Colleagues must be thinking I'm on something lol.
Have a great day everybody.

Giraffe, wonderful news! Off something, rather than on something - but just keep on smiling and enjoying today.

Loamers, well i did contemplate a short post due to being a bit stressed about my beautiful dog but she is sleeping next to me so guess what, here we go again!

NS I too thought i could give up al by myself and there possibly could not be another like me. I found this site pissed one night as i am sure a lot of us do. To just read that there were other kindred spirits gave me hope but took me 3 years to realise that i needed to be honest with myself and everyone on here on my sober life and that i can never drink again. Honest, sober and never = Life to me.

Oh Rox i am sorry, i wasnt having a go at you this morning lovely, you remind me so much of myself in the early days so therefore i am taking you under my wing to coddle you but beat the crap out of you if needed. I did not think i could do a Friday or a Saturday, god it was the weekend but as i say it is no different to any other day of the week when i would drink and once you do a weekend you will be suprised at how good it farking feels. You post on here girl or PM me, since i am now broke due to "maddison Elizabeth Charlotte Beatrice (my dog)) i will be sitting here drinking water and dying from the heat.

Nar please be careful walking in that dreadful weather, would hate you to break something at your age ha ha! That is sad dreaming about us Nar, you need a life, oh you have one with us and i love it and you.

Daisy isnt it a wonderful feeling waking up sober. When i first gave up i had such bad headaches that i woke up and thought i had drunk the night before so i was doubly please. Everyday is a good day sober but as giraffe says, i thought my wrinkles would go and damn it they havent. Stay positive you are doing so well.

LB i think my dogs are in shock now the amount of attention they get, i neglected so much for so long. Nothing can stop you LB, your determination to help others including your family is something to be very proud of.

Jvo congrats on your sons win, what a proud mumma you must be now. Is that it for the year or is there something else he has to play. Us Aussies are not into basketball as a sport, more football which i cant stand. Glad you are sounding well and happy.

SL you disappoint me with no long post. Just imagine before if you had heard your car cost $1000 how much al you may have drank to commiserate, like my dog today. Glad to see you are being strong, you go girl!

Wow Pav i'm impressed, are you sick today as that was such a short post. I am glad you feel the same, i remember when i first started on here it made my day if someone mentioned my name in a post, it meant i was actually recognised and someone listened to what i said, i still do it now on here lol. A "monster" eh! I was a bit worried there until you elaborated, i like to think i can help and you never know a few words may mean the world of difference to a new one on the nest, we have all been there done that. I like you cannot think that it is INEVITABLE that i may drink, that option is not one for me.

Humble so true that we are very fortunate to have each other, you guys keep me sober every single day. My god i cant imagine what you would all say if i drank, enough to give me nightmares tonight.

Today, well Mia messaged me at 3pm to say my dog had been vomiting and was not well, she is my baby so i left work early and came home to take her to the vets. I am not good at vets as i think they are going to say she is going to die and god forbid they would tell me that. Here is Mia saying she may die and im like shut up, she was saying it to prepare herself so i found out after talking to her. She had her blood test and may have pancreatitis, her liver is fine (like mine) but she seems to be very constipated and has a grass seed in her foot which is the least of our worries at the moment. So she was given an injection to stop vomiting, something to make her poo and her foot bandaged and $200 later as that was all i had we came home. If she vomits we have to take her to the hospital and they will have to operate so my sleep tonight is going to be rough. she is on the bed with "nana" (me) atm. I rang my eldest daughter and she said automatically "mum dont drink" and i said i did not have a thought to drink but thank you and Mia thought i would definitely go to the bottleshop to get wine. I did not crave a drink to make it better as it would not have and i would not be coherent to drive her or wake if something happens. So a stressful moment which i have not been through lately and i managed extremely well though i did have to do a quick post on here to be accountable.

Giraffe, you keep that stupid grin on your face you so deserve it!

Well lovely ladies enough from me and i am glad you are all doing well, anyone i have missed sorry!

snipped. sorry everyone!

erm, i didnt take offence, none was meant. in fact i cant see anything that could be construed as offensive

kisses on the nose for maddison.

what is getting me cross is im having urges. have been for an hour. difference from yesterday is i didnt see myself caving, but today i do.

and i dont have poorly pets, angry husband, family discord etc etc to 'blame' it on.

to everyone i snipped off, i read every post and take strength from them or empathy towards them. i hope you dont think i was being rude. :l

Rox you dont need a drink, yes the cravings are horrible but they go away. Eat something that always helps. I think i ate pure sugar for 5 weeks as my body craved it. No point in drinking AT anyone as it does not hurt them only you. You can do this, read on here and post like a lunatic. I was/am not called lunatic linda for nothing.

Hold that thought, it will go away. You dont really want to post tomorrow that you caved in and drank and feel remorse, shame, guilt, regret, anxiety, depression, you name it, AL will give it to you but when you dont drink al then you can post that you made it, you are proud, you dont have a hangover and another day won for you.

i really didnt believe that writing it on here and reading posts would change that thought once it was there, but it is!

i dont even like being pissed! how messed up is that? if (when) i make it to 6pm, im done. im lucky in that respect i guess. its a long time to 6pm though.

i have been trying to find my cbt counsellor, as you can see ^^ i need a refresher course.
going round in circles on the net. but thats ok, i will have to call doctors surgery.

sorry for waffling on about myself but as you know....... its all about meeeeeeeeee!!

So it should be all about you Rox, nothing wrong with that at all. This is why i have MWO open 24/7 as reading about others struggles which are so much like our own makes us feel not so alone. God the thought of drinking now makes me want to puke and remembering what got me to MWO does not entice me at all to have a drink.

Even being on the net looking for something keeps your mind of drinking but damn i got pissed off easily at everything lol. Still do but try and not let it get to me like before.

I for one will be really proud of you when i wake in the morning and see that you have not drunk. Remember you can not hide from this lot and they are pretty hard on us if we drink. Well not really but thought it may scare you too.

I try! Remember Pav said i was a monster, a good hearted one! My bedtime now, so dont you drink and i will be back in 7 hours to check on you. You can do this Rox, i was where you are 67 days ago, i know how hard it was and it may get worse before it gets better but thats the challenge for us and we do love a challenge. If you feel the craving, walk in the damn rain, i love walking in the rain or just go and stand in it, then you will be freezing and have to have a shower and hang your clothes out and be occupied. Take care
