Hi, Octsober mates!
I am here accompanied by my 32 wine-free days.
Samwitch - well done on Day 18.
"future thinking" ie--how am I gonna get through Thanksgiving, party, Christmas, the 3rd Friday of March
Yes, and there will be Easter, Independancy Day, Bastille day. In ten years maybe celebration of first contact with aliens))) . Make it easy on yourself) I am a great specialist in driving myself crazy with such "future thinking" - never did me any good.
Redviper - IMHO, as far as any of us is aware of what's going on when we drink "a first glass", terminology doesn't matter much. And, unlike this say... addiction, there are many diseases that are completely curable.
Germanos - how are you? How's you work going?
My very best wishes to all. Have a great sober day)
