Day 6
Not too much to report today. The weekend went better than I expected. I thought I was going to have to hide under the covers to stop myself from grabbing a bottle of wine or drinks with friends, but I didn't really. I wasn't as productive as I wanted to be in terms of cleaning the entire house, doing all the laundry, etc. To be honest, I purposely was a little more "kind" to myself over the weekend. Got a facial as planned and watched a movie on Saturday. And Sunday worked at a cafe for most of the day and then got takeout.
Part of me feels like I should have used all the extra time to be Uber Productive...but that's what I've done the last couple of times I "abstained" for a few days. And it always leads me to be a little resentful. This time, I feel like I still had a beautiful, relaxing and fun weekend!
Monday's are usually terrible for me b/c most likely I would be coming off essentially a 3 day bender (usually leave work early on Friday and start drinking). So today felt amazing. Actually productive at work. And I'm going to go to the store at some point during the day to get a delicious sparkling water JUST to have on the way home b/c that is usually my most troubling time.
Thanks to everyone who commented on my last post that its fine if I post every day or as many times as I'd like. This really helps!
