    July - Here We Go!!!

    Hi all, haven't been able to post because the hamster that turns the wheel of my server has got direah so keeps climbing off to go to the loo - using a friends computer at the moment.

    We have a lot planned for this weekend starting off with a champagne breakfast to watch the rugby South Africa vs New Zealand and then off to the horse races so today will be a very long an a big test for me!! I have planned to have one glass of champers for the rugby and 2 glasses of wine throughout the day (one for lunch and one for dinner).

    Here's to a mod weekend! Will post when the hamster gets off the toilet... lol

      July - Here We Go!!!

      Great to hear from you DeeBee, missed you yesterday!

      So I decided I'd go to the pub last night instead, yes I've swapped the nights around, that's allowed isn't it? Anyway, I only had 3 drinks instead of my normal 4 and didn't have any large measure double vodkas, that sort of makes up for that day I didn't go AF... sort of. My husband said in the morning, 'There see, that was much better only going for 3 beers, wasn't it?' I was reluctant but knew he was right and agreed (He then proceeded to poke me in the liver!). I feel that this obsession is being chipped away at a little bit at a time.

      OK, time to add those units up again, 3 x 2.3 units (they were pints of Carling you see) = 6.9 units.

      Existing 12.6 + 6.9 = 19.5

        My husband bought me a hot air balloon trip for my birthday and the champagne breakfast was all I could think about!!! How sad...

          I think "modding" is definately a mindset you have to psych yourself up for to a certain degree, and continue to be very diligent about...

          Which is easier said than done. But, it CAN be done.

          It seems for me, to be able to enjoy a few beers @ the 4th of July celebration, & not feel like a "social outcast" because I'm not "allowed" to enjoy myself, ... well it works for me.

          Been thinking a lot about the differences of the 12 step ideals & MWO. I've been working with a woman who does the AA & 12 step thing, who's very serious & strict. Which, works for her.

          But for me, MWO is such a saving grace. Someone asked me today, "If there was beer in the fridge when I opened it, would I want to drink one..."
          Well, this was after working a long & hot shift. DAMN right I DO! But, that doesn't mean I'm gonna drink ALL of the beer in the fridge..(like I would have years ago)

          Just some rambling thoughts...

          Happy belated Independence day! God Bless our
          Troops & keep Em Safe.:h

          hugs

            Vlad,
            Have a wonderful Birthday & a great flight! I've been up in one of those before... they're loud! Nice view though. I prefer the hangliding ride...I took later that day(tandom). That was an awesome day!

            Oh, to be young & living in the Rockies again!:H

              I would still do this, like your friend from AA said, its about being strict. If I fancy a beer I go to the off licence and buy 2. I will then only drink 2.

              Thanks for the birthday wishes, my balloon flight was actually a month ago and was brilliant, but thanks anyway!!!

                  Another crazy alcoholic dream...

                  Last night I dreamt I turned into a giant and was stomping all over houses and things. I needed a drink and started to eat off licences. I said, 'No, this is no good, I need to find a distillery!!!'

                  When this'll stop I'll never know...

                    Hey Judie

                    I remember a quote from 'Pushing Daises'... Can't remember the character's name but he said...

                    "If there's vodka in my freezer, doesn't mean I have to drink it... No, wait!!! Yes it does!!!"

                      Forgot to mention, it's an AF day for me - I'm busy this evening so hopefully I WILL stick to it!!! Better had do. The NHS recommends we have at least 2 alcohol free days a week.

                          Hurrah, I did it. Nothing Friday night and moderated last night (was at a wedding), it was a great night, I was up dancing etc which I never thought I would and even had just a coke for my last drink instead of voddy and coke which is what I was drinking - had a great night. Here's to Monday to Friday next week AF.. Feels great.
