Just thought I'd start a new thread down here & liven things up a bit in Modsville.

Hope everybody's having a great Labor day weekend. I've been laboring away! Been really busy @ the restaurant, but have had wonderful guests & making great $$!
Last night went really fast because it was so busy. But I had fun too. I work with some nice folks, that really helps.

The restaurant is right on the river with a beautiful view of the sunset, we can watch the seals & otters swimming out front as well as the raccoons that come out for snacks later at night.
Actually some of the 2 legged "animals" in the bar weren't too hard to look @ last night either! LOL

I was ordering some drinks for one of my tables, and I told the bartender, "I want it all, and I want it delivered by cute naked men" (Our bartender is an old friend of my dad's... he about choked!):H

Kind of funny, weekends are easier for me to moderate... I work nights, so I have to behave during the day. Then by the time I get off work, theres not much time to drink much lite beer, and after I take my PM dose of topa, I'm pretty much down for the couch...very happily at that.

Have a great day everybody.
Huge Hugs,
Judie

Hi Judie,
Been wandering around the site today trying to catch up. Been awhile trying to see where it is I fit in around here, but it looks like it's going to be the moderation route. When reading about so many that just can't drink in moderation, I believe it's something I need to keep in check for sure.
Most times I don't want to drink alcohol. I like being sober and feeling good, and having a clean liver. So i don't drink. But it seems like there are going to be occasions when I do really feel like I want to drink some beer, so I do. Until last night, I hadn't had any alcohol for 3 weeks at a wedding. Last night, wnet to the club and had a few beers while watching a college football game. Had a nice time, didn't drive, and didn't get drunk. Felt ok today.
It's kind of fun, and challenging to see the AF days add up, but in being realistic, I think moderation will be my way out, at least for now. FWIW, I think everyone does have their OPINION about what drinking in moderation is or is not. Some are just kidding themselves. I really don't want to be one of them.
Continue to enjoy your life, I always enjoy your posts, sounds like you live in a really nice place.:h

Hi guys,
I'm also modding, almost bordering on AF. But I think this is the place I belong. Over the last 66 days I have had less than one full glass of anything. I did 33AF, had a 1/2 glass of wine, then on day 60 I had a few sips of a drink. A few days later, just a few sips. I find modding more difficult than AF'ing, but I like having the option. The other night I just had a drink available, and I felt "part of the crowd" (I know that's probably wrong to say, but it's true). So...I don't say "I don't drink anymore", what I say is "I don't really drink much anymore, but thanks". My rebellious nature kills me if I put up too much restriction, but this is working out perfectly! I have the option, just don't take it. I'm sooooo very pleased with how MWO has worked for me. I wish you all success to meet your personal goals as well!:h oh, and stick with them I know this is going to be a lifetime of vigilance!

Gyco, have you tried any L-glutamine? You can buy it @ any drug store usually, or @ a health food store. I really think it helps with cravings for sugar & alcohol.
Are you waiting for supps from MWO? I really think they help.
As well, as lots of exercise & just keeping myself busy...
If I have too much time on my hands I'll find myself bored & in trouble real fast.

I guess I'm kind of like one of those little problem kids or dogs...:H
