Good morning Mods friends..
I just wanted to start todays thread.
I found out yesterday that my son will do another tour of duty in Iraq. I posted details on What we believe so please read there also.

This site and you guys have been an inspiration to me for over a year now.
I've watched you struggle and grow and we've grown together.
I hope your Sunday is sunny and peaceful.

I love you all.

Morning Mod friends.
Nancy you and your family are in my thoughts.
Betty that does sound like a good plan and good luck.
PP I would love to go boating. Just not quite warm enough here yet.
Janie I hope you enjoy your Sunday.

Today I am going to try and get some cleaning done and the van cleaned out. I can't believe how messy kids can be. What the heck are they doing back there? To all the rest to come I hope you have a very nice Sunday.

Good plan Betty, I am planning something similar.

Janie, glad to hear you had fun in chat. It can get pretty lively there.

Beaches, Happy Cleaning.

Happy Sunday to the rest of you. Love to all!!!

Hi Betty Boop

I am doing mods too and have to take care to keep myself in check since coming on boad here around Feb time..can i join you in this week of AF..feel i need to check in and be accountable to..like you i dont want to drink weekdays..ythats where i have been at for the last 3 months(i mean my plan).did 45 days feb/march and felt better.

Need to stick with weekend drinks...2-3 wines max or i fear i would go back to almost daily 2-3 glasses...

It wasnt so much the quantity as the frequency that scared me...hence i came onto this site.
Hope you keep posting and i will too...so no booze until friday...HOPEFULLY

Regards Cassy

Nancy, I hate it that your son has to be in harm's way. This is such a confusing time. You are in my thoughts.

Nancy,
Checking in this evening, but I will keep you in prayer as well. I think there must be nothing like the feeling of your children facing the hardest of life's challenges and you have to let them go...

Beaches, your kids have a crouton factory going on in the back of the car with the left over fast food... Havent you figured that out yet?? :H

Oh... its been a trying three days. Going AF through Thursday night starting tonight.

Hope everyone had a peaceful weekend and has a great week ahead!

Nancy - My thougts are with you. My brother is headed back as well. He was assured he was done and he and his wife just had their first baby in March. Somewhere this all makes sense. I'll be thinking of you and your son.

Nancy, I can't imagine what it must be like! My daughter will get a special hug tonight (even though she doesn't deserve it. Love and thoughts from Oz.

Good luck to all the those going AF during the week. I find lots of bloody green tea around the 'danger hour' does it for me. I hate the stuff but it seems to kill any residual craving - for anything!!
