Hoops and Kats - and maybe all of us? There is this weird thing
I am feeling about not being able to drink alone:
It is a beautiful Sunday and great things to do. It is weird, though,
when I think of not having my usual Bloody Mary or beer or
wine this evening, it isn't a craving it causes, it is a sense of GRIEF.
It is like losing something precious to you: like being able to see
the world through a rosy colored bliss. The last day I drank I
had a beer on a deck over a forest. Just one. But it caused a sense
of bliss that was amazing. But I think the goal is to find that
sensation without giving in to one, then another, then another.
For now I am focused on a handful of grapes, a nice shower or
LaCroix (actually haven't found them yet CuteAnd), some iced
coffee - and looking forward to being straight and feeling good
in the morning.
I hope that encourages someone to get through this day (or night
in Europe). It is how I am doing it.

This time, I plan to post on here tonight and lean on folks. I am NOT going to drink tonight! I keep thinking of after the 1, 2, 3, drinks, oops bottle gone, go to bed not remembering what I did, wake up feeling miserable. DON'T WANT IT!!!
I hope everyone has a fantastic day!
