    Saturday the 6th

    Hi everybody, :welcome: to Modsville.

    Just wanted to post an updated thread down here.

    I haven't been on line the past few days,... have been down with a damn migraine...GRRR I hate those things.

    Especially when the weather is beautiful, and I have to hide out in the dark. Finally comining back to life, slowly here.

    Gonna keep this short, as I've got a lot of catching up to do.
    Hope all well & having a good weekend.

    I think I'll go for a short paddle before work, it's been hotter than "H" here!


    Hugs,:l

    Happy Saturday to modders all

    Rainy in the Northeast - Hanna revisited.

    Sorry you were down w/ migraine Judes: we had the most beautiful sunny week here: and I was off until Thursday to get my daughter ready for school, so I got a few bike rides in, and just sat in the sun reading the paper whenever I could.

    Had a pretty good week. Overdid it a bit on Monday but stayed AF the rest of the week until Friday. Only two mods days this week, so I could keep within my weekly drink total. Feel like this drinking tiger is back in the cage again.

    It was just a year ago I started this weight-loss, fitness, reduce alcohol mindset and although I"d still like to lose about 10 lbs. I've really toned up, lost 20 lbs and dropped several sizes. I feel GREAT! and love the compliments.

    My 14 y/o daughter started High School this week, which went surprisingly well. She started running with the Cross Country team several weeks ago, and they've done a few social outings as well, so going into this huge new school wasn't so intimidating I guess.
    It feels good to be back to some semblance of a schedule and routine,

    So just enjoying a quiet night in, with the rain pattering outside. Hope all who check in are doing well.

    My best to you:

      Hi Judie and AFH
      This week went pretty well for me with moderation as well, AF from Mon-Wed then a family member came home with some beverage for me that I never asked for and well I drank it. Last night I went out with the girls had one beer. Tonight doing well so far. I was hoping to go AF for one month and that temptation sent me over the edge. 3 days in and I faltered. I have never made it 4 days AF. Even if it was just a sip. WTF
      Anyway much better than I was when I was hiding the drinks and starting at 8am to get rid of the previous hang over. I am coming along. For about 2 years I was in a bad state, it's nice to see the other side now.

        Well, Damn! I still don't know if I'm going to be able to ever drink in moderation or not!! My sil and bil were here visiting for 1 night, along with another couple. They had gotten an early al start so I knew it would be a challenge. I wasn't planning on drinking, but suddenly I felt tense and grouchy and I thought "Oh what the hell!" I wasn't going to drink because they all smoke and that's the whole reason I quit drinking--to be able to quit smoking. Yeah, you guessed it, after only 1 beer I was reaching for a cigarette. i only smoked 2, but I had 3 months nicotine free!

        It may be that I just cannot drink if I can't leave them fricken cigarettes alone!! It's not that I even think about drinking, or care that much, but once in awhile. Well, I guess the al will have to go until I get the cigarette habit completely out of my life!

          Hey Beaches and LVT:

          Beaches: Just jump back on the 30 day wagon. Personally don't think it has to be 30 days straight AF if you just accumulate lots of AF days that's good for you too! I did 21 days AF (out of 30); I think Croft did 24; whatever, the discipline and focus is still a learning experience. Early in my first week someone poured me a glass of wine and i drank it. Realized I had to ask them not to do that . Started packing AF beer when I went to parties. All good habits to develop :-)

          LVT: Sorry about the cigs slip; never faced that problem but bet you can beat it back too! Its a tough situation when everyone else is drinking and lighting up. Tomorrow is another day.

          Hang in there. We're all getting better everyday.

          Fondly,

            Excellent point of view AFH.

              LVT, Thankfully, I don't have that struggle with cigies... I do feel for you though. My Hubby deals with it every moment of his life. He's been telling me he's gonna quit since we met...9 years ago...(kind of like my drinking)
              I've seen him when he doesn't have any... or travelling with him in airports...NOT pretty!

              I always have a couple of his stashed away somewhere so he doesn't run out completly. I hide them in silk flower arrangements & in the cupboards... places he's never think of looking...:H They might be old & stale when he "needs" em... but when he's out...I'm his "best friend"!!LOL
              I should hold out for cash! (or sexual favours!)

                Thanks guys. yes, the ciggie habit totally sucks!! I'm afraid I've already done damage that can't be reversed--I still get so winded at times. Anyway, I will kick it, I won't give up!
                I'm considering "doing" the race for the cure in Denver. I need to find out more about it (like can I walk) before I commit. Our pastor and some girls from church are doing it, and I think maybe God's telling me I need a little motivation!!
