Yesterday was a good day. Held the cravings back. Its hard when every where you go people are unloading cases of beer for the holiday celebrations.

One of my hobbies is astronomy so I stayed out with the telescope to about midnight, was in bed by 1am. Got to see Saturn and its rings, a shooting star and I had a sattelite fly across the scope while viewing. I couldn't enjoy these things unless I was sober, so I was encouraged some.

Up at 7am. Feeling pretty good, had some coffee and breakfast. I will need a nap later on, I can tell.

Wife sent me on a grocery run so I picked up a six-pack of club soda and a few different flavors of seltzer water. I will give that a whirl around lunch when the cravings will start again. Should give me something to sip on.

I'm kind of an astronomy geek myself. I should get back into it more now that I've quit boozing it. There's a lot of stuff I should get back into, come to think of it!

Yeah, its a neat hobby. But like anything else it can be a money pit. Hence the reason I figured out what I spent a week on liquor.... now I can use those funds toward a respectable hobby.

Motivational, at least.
