I feel very much like a failure... fell victim to the drink at work this evening. We had a wine tasting (I'm a server). I drank, felt well. after closing time did me in. I drank with my peers/ coworkers and felt immediate guilt on the way home. and I wanted more so I stopped and had another drink on the way home. this has ruined my streak. I'm starting over tomorrow and hope I can forgive myself. I'm sorry guys. I feel like poo

Ahhh cornpone, I'm sorry you feel like poo.
And I know that feeling, making a promise to ourselves and falling down. We learn, and we do it better next time.

Honestly, the thing that is concerning love is that you drove after drinking. I'm glad you are home safe.

We do this together, one day at a time, so let's do this next 24 hours.

Sending you huge hugs.

I'm just curious. Did you have Joey from Friends in mind when you wrote this or is it just me that hears his voice in my head when I read it?

A bit emotional today, but that's OK.
It's still an adjustment to feel things and deal with them, but it feels so much better than what I used to do with my emotions ~ drowning them.
