Day 28 and it looks like we sometimes struggle and then we upright ourselves to manage another day. . .week . . .month. Here is my email today from the Universe. Think it is quite appropriate.

Adversity, challenges, and bumps in the road, are often the first signs that a great healing has begun.
OK... so... let's talk about something zippier. Did you know that by simply thinking of someone, you can often cause them to think of you?
Thinking of you-
The Universe

Yes, Judie, the site http://www.tut.com is pretty cool huh? I signed up about a year ago to have them send me a daily email. M-F I get one. Sometimes they are much more relavant than others but always uplifting. Good for you for recoginizing the pitfalls. I have watched the mods group and it seems to me as soon as everyone including myself, is really comortable and not planning is when the slip ups really come. You do sound like you do not overdo the way you use to with vodka. Congratulations on that!
Becca, if you go to abs we will miss you but Kathy is over there right now and you will have great company! We understand completely. . . do you know how awesome it is to have a husband that committed to your recovery? I wish you the best. Becca, the cds really help me. It is habit too after all.
Soccermom, Mary, Happy Birthday!! Hope it is a great day!
Trish in Nebraska :w
Gina, Hope the anniversary dinner/dancing was really romantic! congratulations on 15 years!
Laura, Jen and Deanie, I know that secret drinking well. That was a committment I made to myself early on this program no more hiding drinks. My husband still to this day does not have an idea as he said to me at one point - but you don't really drink that much. . . .oh really! I think I had to fess up to myself after a thread in general discussion that went something like: Where do you hide your alcohol?! Some people were much more creative than I had been but the fact remained I had hidden drinks. (Poor hubby just hought I was a really cheap date, easy drunk.)
One half glass of wine last night. good to not have rum in the house as I may have started with that. Sinus headaches due to the torrential rains we have been experiencing? Just sucking down the benedryl - talk about your topa dopa - Benedryl does that for me!
Hope all you mods have a great day today and a wonderful weekend.
:l :h Mary
