|  Guess What?
I did not have a drink last night. For the first time in I think 6 months I did not have a drink during the week. I can't have one tonight either cause I have a dentist appointment at 7:00 a.m. tomorrow. I didn't have one |

Thanks Vonnie. I do feel kinda proud of myself. I almost think I can do it tonight. I have to. An early dentist appointment tomorrow. Gonna use that as my excuse to be good. I even feel like working today. Although, I'm kinda tired. Played with my cat Clementine this morning. Hadn't done that in a while. She liked it. I know. Sounds silly and childess. But I do kinda feel good. Slight headache. I'm telling myself its my sinuses. |

I must admit, I kinda think one wont hurt, but it will cause I won't stop at one. Sure hope I can come on here tomorrow with some pride. |

{hugs} Steak sounds great! Remember it's the first one that gets you into trouble! Good luck, my dear... Have a great sober night... I'm a cat person, too... Nothing like that unconditional love from a feline friend.

Good for you! I think the not-sleeping thing is totally normal. That happened to me the first night, but that was only on Sunday. Then Monday I drank. Then Tuesday I didn't. AHH! So, I hope you make it through this night and I do as well. We can do it!!  |

Zilla, today is day 4. I did not drink last night. Sleeping is kinda hard for me. Weird, I had a dream that I had to come on here and tell everyone I couldnt do it. BUT I DID DO IT. I wake up kinda sweating. I dont think I'm having tough withdrawals, but my mind just doesnt stop thinking about it. That' bothers me the most. Anyway, to day four. Its a Friday. Lets hope we both can do it. I don't have a computer at home so it'll be tough. I won't have you to lean on. |

| the girl can't help it  |
(((OnceNice)))) Is it possible for you to get some Chamomile Tea to help you relax and perhaps sleep better? "Celestrial Seasoning" makes a tea called "Sleepy Time" that you can get in any large grociery store and it is very gentle and has a very pleasant sweet taste that does not need any sugar. Congrats on day four!!! Take it easy on yourself...we are with you in spirit..

Splendra thanks. Worried about the weekend though. Its pay day for me. I don't know about you but pay day is a big trigger. Friday and Money. Maybe I'll buy a computer this week. All the money I spend on beer, I certainly could afford a computer if I keep away from the bottle.

Hey, what a great idea Once!! I think having a plan is always the answer. Plan to do something else with your money and buying a new computer is very cool!

What a wonderful idea! I've been online at home for probably close to 10 years... I couldn't imagine "not" being online...I think I'd give up the TV & cable first... hehe and it's been a part of my "program" of recovery for almost 4 years now on a daily basis. Although I do still attend some F2F meetings... I can do this 24/7
