That is probably a good idea Lance! Thanks for sticking around. This isn't easy but it is simple. Do not take 1 drink of alcohol. I don't know about you but I've tried moderation in the past and it just doesn't work for me. I fantasize about having 1-2 beers and I end up having 10, blacking out, and waking up feeling miserable, anxious, and worried about making a fool of myself. I'm too smart and mature for alcoholic behavior and it is time to move on with my life.

I've pushed this back too far. I joined this site in 2011. 2011! If I would have kept my committment I would be over 2 years sober by now. But I can't beat myself up over that so I am moving forward and focusing on my life right now. It's been awhile since I've done something good for myself and today is a day that I am saying NO! I will not take any alcohol.
