Sober in October

My wife and I decided to take the month of October off from drinking. We did wonderfully. The loser (the one who drank) had to pay, in cash, $100. Neither of us drank. It was a wierd month. I got up for work and was in the office at 6am every morning. Production skyrocketed. I was happy. I went running, biking and fishing.

Here we are, Nov. 11th and Im drinking a beer at 11am in the morning. My excuse is football. As I take another swig, im thinking that October was a great idea - even though I hated not drinking.

Hi again Rafterman !

I like Sober in October. Why not make November a None in November or NO More in November ? I'll bet you can!

Hi rafterman, I just read your post in the 'tell us something about you' thread. It's nice to meet you!
I'm really glad to hear that you were able to stop drinking during Oct. and that you had such a good month....but I wonder what was the reason behind you and your wife wanting to do that in the first place?

That's how we do it! One month at a time. Oh, wait, did I say "Month"? I meant "Day". One day at a time, that's how we do it!
