Anyone planning today to be Day 1? I am!
I've lurked, then posted a few times, but I (finally) want today to be my Day 1. I'm a stay at home mom of two little ones. I quite simply started to enjoy and then "need" my wine, too much. Soon it became a crutch or a reason/reward for every emotion. Hard day, need it. Good day, deserve it. Wednesday, just want it.
Also going to check back in on the Moms/Mums thread.
Anyone else! Let's do this.

My plan is focusing on today and tonight. It's only 9 AM here. A jog later, taking the kids out and away from the house for the afternoon. Herbal tea and bubble bath and a book tonight with some mindless television then bed. Hope I don't get too shaky and too many night sweats etc.
Also number 1, almost forgot - no wine in the house!!! My hubby has a few beers left from the weekend but that shouldn't tempt me.

I have Caroline knapp's book, Drinking: A Love Story. I really wanted to pick up a couple other recovery related books but couldn't find them in stock nearby. So I may be doing an amazon order today too.
Anyone else want to share their plan?
Laura my toughest time of day will be about 4-8 PM. And then the weekends. Trying not to think too far ahead though.

Sometimes watching an addiction themed movie or an intervention helps remind me why I want to have my day 1 and more.
My plan tonight is bubble bath, watching survivor and having a cup of bedtime tea. And prob a bowl of ice cream!
Maybe try writing down how you feel/felt in the crummiest of states and go back and re-read!
