My Journey - Being Honest

Had a drink after 3.5 weeks drink free. My partner Janet won at bingo and to share her joy I had about a third of a bottle of gin on each night - sat and sun. No ill effects apparent thank god and no guilt. I didnt feel under the influence - no misbehaving, no rows, full memory.
Now Im not complacent and now Im going on another alcohol drought ,as this time , from midnight I go on a low carb diet and it wouldnt compliment this. Not just that of course. The MAIN reason I started abstinence or my " new way" was to get the benefit bag that giving up the sauce allows us. I will continue to strive to achieve to enjoy it's contents.
I do not wish to go back to my old ways and indeed , I didnt go into any physical or mental place that has led to me needing or craving more.
So - I took a chance - and survived unscathed. If I dont write these things down and share then I wouldnt feel truthful to this community.
I hope all who read are in fine shape and are remaining positive and healthy.
Regards
