Thanks for all the replies. I had a mild urge today at the grocery store but didn’t buy a bottle of wine. Who knows? Maybe avoiding my daily 1-2 Rock Star energy drinks which ended up giving me anxiety helped me in not picking up. Or maybe because I felt a responsibility to my commitment on Sunday helped me not pick up. But it still took some effort since I really did want the bottle.

As for the the rest of my plan? Go to as many meetings as possible in the next 86 days and be open to finding another woman who I feel can help me work the steps.

And I really dislike shaking hands and doing hugs if I am a greeter. I plan on just saying hi and welcome to the meeting and trying to remember peoples names.

Well I am off to a 7:30 pm meeting. If this disease takes me down, I just hope to go down fighting. 😊
