You can. Today is a week for me. I was thinking this morning when I woke up how happy I am that I quit drinking. It's such a pleasure to wake up in the morning and not have my head hurting. Last night around 6pm I really would have liked to have a glass of wine but I didn't. Around 10pm, when I normally would have had more than my fair share of wine, I felt so glad that I had resisted at 6pm. Usually by 10pm I am too tired to do anything and would often fall asleep watching TV. But since I didn't drink, last night I was busy checking email and surfing the Internet at 10pm. I'm so glad I quit. I just hope I can stay quit.
Best wishes to you Jake. Hang in there!
