I have wanted to drink for days and days.
Now I am off to stay at someone's place and house sit while they are away.
There is tons of beer and liquor in the house.
I will have a situation that I used to love- being alone, having days off and access to lots of free drinks. I could happily drink a few days away and watch netflix- I'll also be alone.

Anyway, I am utilizing SR to not do that. Today is 2 weeks. Or 70-something days left on my 90 day countdown. I'm such a dummy I misnamed my other thread and said I had 86 days left. I (literally) cannot math.

That seems like a high risk situation to be in newly sober. But who am I to say that? I put myself in high risk situations every weekend, LOL.

pretty high risk but you also got 2 weeks sober time that you worked pretty friggen hard for I highly doubt its worth throwing away for a little bender at this stage in the game and whos to say itll just be a little bender you might end up having a decade long bender.

years ago i watched houes like that a few times too it was a total license to get intoxicated. I;d be too bored doing it these days. of course if it was a cool place to stay IE a pool and whatever i might go running all day and swimming soon as i get home or something.

Ok guys here I am. iPad hasn't much power is old and goes out quickly, netflix ain't working and there's a ton of beer in the fridge. It's raining and cold out, I ate an undercooked slice of pizza and am sitting here in silence alone. Nobody to visit.

sounds kinda awesome. I have 6 kids and a noisy house. I'd enjoy the peace and quiet .Maybe meditate or something.

I find it nice to have nothing to do and time to just zone out.

Are you pet sitting too, or just the house? Don't cave in! It's not worth it and you'd have to start all over again and you don't want to do that.

If nothing else, take a nap or go to bed early. Just don't drink!

sleepie

Netflix is happening that should do.

Thanks least!
Yes I am child free- your choice to have kids!

I am pet sitting. Dogs are walked and fed.

Then you've got the dogs for company.

You seem to be doing really well Sleepie in working through the cravings. Good for you!

Thanks, to the great displeasure of my pancreas I am overeating and feel disgusting. Sugars are a bit high. Feel so gross and still unsatisfied. I am lonely too.

sleepie

Cravings for days at a time. Thought they passed? Trying to watch movies. Definitely cannot read or sleep.

Been tough for me too. I feel like I am stuck in mud, and I have so much stuff to do around our apartment. I feel like a total slug. I wish tomorrow was already here so I can exercise, as I feel bloated as well from eating.

My parents have been really nice, but it is almost as if they want everything to be normal with me RIGHT NOW, when in fact it is not. They were disappointed that I left their house so quickly, but I just did not feel like sitting around and chatting.
