Problem Solving W/O Wine
Problem Solving W/O Wine
Yesterday I learned about a professional problem. It is precisely the type of stressful problem that would've had me picking out a pretty goblet at 4 pm! Sobriety did not prevent this problem, but I believe being sober will help me solve it better. If I'd started drinking wine, I'd have a hangover and a fuzzy mind....might have even "caved" and given this employee the answer they desire....which is not the best long term solution.
BTW - the problem is still not solved, but my resolve to not drink is still intact!

Continued best wishes.
blueshades, I'm sure you are looking forward to that day, and thank you for your good wishes. I was able to resolve the problem this afternoon. I was agitated afterwards, as I don't like conflict. I remembered reading many posts here that talk about waiting out the agitation - get busy - do something and the urge will pass. It is true, an hour later, the urge was gone...and boy was I glad I didn't reach for wine!!!!
