(((((Paddy)))))
Wishing you well and a sober day. I agree ringing your friend for a coffee sounds good. I'm on my way to grab one myself
I'm saying a prayer for you to push through your cravings today!

Paddy, Ireland is part of that European socialist type of model, and with the long history of drinking problems in Ireland, I'm a little surprised there isn't a lot of free help (rehab facilities/outreach programs, etc.). Even while looking at the local news over there, right on page one was an article dealing with the drunk driving problem over there! It just doesn't make sense that you seem to be "white knuckling" it alone without being in a facility to help you through the early stages.

I did Hawkeye and he is bringing me to a meeting, he was very understanding too... thank you
When you feel tempted remember how low you were a few days ago. Drinking will only take you back to that place.
I'm loving witnessing all the support for Paddy. Warms the cockles of my heart, and you so deserve it, Paddy.
P.S. My son's name is Patrick. You have the best name in the world, imo :-D

24hrs down, no drink, it's a miracle, been a tough day .. The mind can play strange things to you when you are vulnerable, i will get on my knees and thank my higher power for keeping me free from alcohol today and pray for the suffering addict out there. peace out, good night all.
