Whoo! Hoo! I am feeling really great right now. I have not had a drink for 22 day and can honestly say that I do not miss it at all. I took a big whif of the hubbys beer last nite and it smelled good, but I had no desire to take even a sip.

I have been really sleepy the last week and have a hard time getting anything done past 9:30 at night. I have finally been sleeping hard all night. I wake up around 5:30 in shock that the night is over already. Used to be up and down all...

I have hit 2 weeks. I am very happy right now and plan to keep it this way. I don't have anything coming up in the near future that should cause a trigger, so I am going to just plug along day by day.

Almost two weeks. It just gets better and better. I am a little worried that I have no cravings and that it might slam me some day. I have also having more and more cravings for sugar that I never had before. The dark chocolate candybars I hide in my dresser (from the kids--guess its better than hiding wine!), the chocolate ice cream at 10:00 at night, in bed, watching TV and reading a book on the commercials, kids all in bed asleep...wow is that the greatest way to end a day. Used to be I...

Still walking, walking, walking. My new addiction. Just feels reallly good...legs lookin' better too.

One thing I have found about myself from not drinking is what a procrastinator I had become. Always putting things off, cuz I didn't want to deal with it and drink instead. Then as things start piling up, causing more stress and drinking more...especially with paperwork, laundry, etc.

Today I walked, came home paid the bills and balanced the checkbook, got the kids...

Whoo - Hoo! Feeling really good. Even enthusiastic. Still a little leary. Last night I walked by the wine aisle in the store and looked at it and it just freaked me out for some reason. I didn't have the urge to buy anything, but it just gave me a jolt. Got out of there fast. Also went home to sit at the computer and had the thought of: glass of wine and computer...(loved to get on the computer and drink wine!) another jolt. But it went away just a fast as it came. That is frightening...
