Wow!!! Day 7

What day is it? 7, Wow! I can't believe I made this far...Ahhh, but who's counting? LOLOLOL!
Now, how am I supposed to cut back, if I keep track of how many days it's been since I had my last drink? Because if I keep counting, I will feel like I'm in some kind of competition with myself and see how many more days I can hold out. Gesh!
Seriously, this has probably been the longest I went with having a beer in like....ummmm, I will say about 6 months, Hubby says 12, but what does he know? Plus, In my opinion...he doesn't have a very good sense of time. 1 day=1week to him. This is why I said 6 months because it half of what says.
Ok, well...just wanted to pop in here and say hello and I only have one leg hanging off the wagon...Sorry, like I said...I love to be silly.
Also I'm here to pass out lots of HUGS! :ghug:
Thanks for listening,
XOXO
P.S. I didn't feel like opening my dictionary, so I hope my spelling of ok.

Many conratulations. After one week, I reckon I'd save... oh, some few pennies or so. Why not use your savings and splash out on an obscenely massive cream bun to celebrate! Err, perhaps that's just me...

I would say...Oh, Yummy that sounds good, but you know what? I really don't know what a cream bun is
I know, I'm a dork....I've just never heard of that before. So, is it something sweet to eat? Because if it is, then your right up my alley....This girl LOVES sweets.
If I can make it a year, then it will be a round of cream buns for everyone...lol. Looks like you guys ain't gettin any.
I'm joking!
Thanks for responding to my post!
XOXO

Thank you Kat2009 and Congratulations to you as well!!!
My preference of beer is Bud Ice, I used to drink the real cheap stuff until a few years ago, back when my hubby drank, he turned me on to it. What a man!
Anyway, I've always loved sweets but it does kick in a little more when I'm not drinking.
I also crave coffee a little more too and it does not matter what time of the day it is. Morning or night...if I want a cup of Java I'm on it.
Peace and Love to you too Doll!

XOXO

Happy 1 week Birthday!
Let's share a cake 6....blow out the candles and make a wish that we can make it another day...I would say another week, but I'd rather not.
It's easier going day to day.
Congrats and Thank You!
Here's a hug for you...:ghug3
XOXO

We have cream buns here too - and have to agree that they beat the donut (even the Krispy Cremes) hands down!!

Rats, have to go out to do the banking now, and have to walk past the bakery to get to the bank, and it's lunch time.....hhmmmmmmm???
