So, here are the positive changes that I have been able to perfect since I joined here a month and a half ago, along with those I hope to make my New Year's resolution!
1. I no longer drink when cooking (except for last minute preparations before dinner).
2. I now do stress management by taking aromatherpahy baths and listening to music, which has helped to decrease my drinking, as well as given me a much more positive outlook on things.
3. I now have "travel management", where I carefully plan my travels so that I don't drink -- this is important since I travel so much.
4. I now stop drinking at least two hours before going to bed -- it has been great at training me to stop drinking and I always go to bed sober.
5. I am now exercising at least once a day.
My New Years Resolutions (that I plan to start psyching myself up for now) are
1. Stop drinking alcohol at lunch.
2. Limit myself to three glasses a day (except holidays).
3. Implement the new Perricone diet cookbook (which I'm hoping to get for Christmas).
4. Exercise at least twice a day.
5. Stop drinking in excess when I get angry with my husband or upset with my parents!
OK -- That's where I am and where I hope to be. It is going to be challenging!!
Thank you for allowing me to post this! You all probably didn't need to hear this, but I definitely needed to say it!! Thanks for your patience.
I'd love to hear from others about their successes and their hopes for the New Year!
Have a great day!!

PS - Has anyone heard from Hawk? I didn't see a post, but I could have missed it.
