Hi BB, so sorry about the break in. We are having a string of them here. Three in the last couple of weeks!

AF last night! I had one AF beer, an amber ODoul's, and it wasn't bad.

How is everyone?

Hi Betty and FMS, hope you don't mind me popping over and saying hi. My aim is to cut out weekday drinking (and weeknights!!!) and enjoy/share a botttle (yes, share a good bottle of wine) with my husband at the weekend (we've been going through those 4 litre boxes like there's no tomorrow!!! Oooops, did I say "we"??)

Since joining MWO last year I've had two spells of Af - 42 days when I first joined then 50+ October/November. Come the Christmas celebrations, parties, balls I thought what the hell, I can do this but then over the xmas period it built up and sadly after a while I couldn't remember when my last AF day was and I was back to drink a bottle of wine a day and feeling crap physically and emotionally.

Last week, I pulled myself by the scruff of the neck, gave myself a good talking to and decided I have got to be disciplined and make changes. So my "plan" is no drinking until Friday night, no more boxes of wine that hide how much I've drank, and no drinking alone. Those 3 rules will do for now. Yesterday was hard after having a drink over the weekend especially as I was home alone and had plenty of opportunity. I also realise I have to be careful about how much I drink at the weekend as there's no point if I end up bingeing over the 3 nights.

Anyway, just wanted to share where I'm at right now and that I am so grateful that I came back to MWO. I need you guys.

Hi Janice, so nice to see you back. I appreciate where you are. I too am always struggling. Last night I had to talk myself out of wine but I did, and had an AF beer. And I got so much more accomplished. I actually put together homemade cheese danish and popped them in the fridge to bake for a sick friend this morning. (Of course hubbie and I split one!) If I had been drinking that would not have gotten done.

I had 3 AF days last week which is great for me. Aiming for at least 2 this week and true mods the others.

Have to run but will check back to see how you are doing. It is hard for me when hubbie travels too but I am keeping busy.

sorry

Betty Boop!!! Sorry about your car and the theft of your Tom Tom (that is a tool/satelite sorta thing that helps you find your way around while driving, right!?)

Anyway, hopefully your insurance will replace everything? I hate that sorta thing happening, it is SUCH an invasion of your space, almost like a rape!! GRRRRR!! Don't (or try not to, don't know if I could follow my own advice) drink over it!!?? Don't let that ruin your trip to FL either!! Like I said, easier said than done, don't know how I'd handle it..........

Whatever you do we will be here to support you!!

Everyone else, Ducky, Janice, FMS and Cindi, hope you have a great day no matter your goal!

Lots of love :h and bug huge hugs:l for ya BB!!! (And everyone else)

Hello fellow modsters. BB that sucks about your car. Sorry it happened.

Janice, glad to have you back and you sound like you have a plan and are ready to execute! I know the cycle very well of af..mods...not-so-mod...back to af. I really empathize with you.

Ducky, I really can't read any of your posts when I am trying to diet and eat right! Everything allways sounds so yummy. Good job on the O'Douls. I personally don't care for the taste and would rather have lemonade.

Just popping in to say 'sorry about the car' BB. We had our home broken into back in the mid 90's and it was an awful feeling. I am sure having your car broken into feels just as bad. The only things they took was my husband's (first husband) cologne and a VCR. We had an office full of computer equipment and they didn't even touch it.... so very weird. We believe it was our hired gardeners but couldn't prove it. Anyway.... I am sure your insurance will replace what was taken.

Sorry that happened Betty. I would be lost without my tom tom. Okay, that sounds like an obvious pun, but you know what I mean.
