| Hi everyone (and welcome Kiwi and FizzyWater!)
Just wanted to check in. Friday and Saturday went well, but yesterday was not so good. I was on my allotment and my neighbour on the plot next to me came across and offered me a drink. It caught me unprepared - I should have kept it simple and said "Sorry, but I'm an alcoholic". But I panicked and slipped up, and today I really don't like myself at all.
But I'm trying to stay positive - I know I mustn't give in to self-pity (I remember this phrase from other people's posts: "poor me, poor me, pour me a drink"). I've got to try to have the bounce-backability of a bouncy ball and my bouncing back begins with an AA meeting tonight at 7.30...
Hope everyone is doing better than me! Lots of love and support to you all. Well done ROFL for your 5 days, NM for a week and stone for 19 days - this is great! Gives me a real incentive to keep trying.
And thanks Anna for the new thread. I'm going to stick around here in the "2 weeks and under thread" - I hope I will graduate soon!!!
Your little friend
