Also a local winery was vandalized and they had to dump $3million worth of wine, so of course the news and social media is full of people talking about what a shame it is that all that wine had to be wasted. Sigh. But I am hanging in there and feel that I am at my strongest day 14 yet.
How about you?
That is good news. You are doing very well
I have been offered beer a few times but have said no. I have been in many shops over the past two weeks and just got a non alcoholic drink. The shop I usually bought beer from must be worried about me, they haven't seen me in ages
I am starting to feel a bit better in terms of drinking, I know it is pointless and if I have some beer now even though I will feel good for a bit I will feel much worse the next day and probably have another meltdown.
I am enjoying seeing little improvements in my recovery and don't want to have to start again.
