Victory!

I had to make an emergency run up to CVS tonight. THE CVS that I always buy my wine at. And of course, the first thing to pop in my mind is "well since you're going anyway, might as well!" Then I remembered something I've been reading in posts on here about "playing the tape," so I did and realized what a mistake I was about to make. And I really wasn't sure I'd be strong enough until after I successfully made the trip without caving! This is a huge victory in my book! I'm feeling pretty good and thought I'd share!

Great job! My cvs sells alcohol too, and there is always a massive display of it right next to the toy section. So while I'm waiting for my prescriptions to be filled and trying to entertain my crazy two year old without losing my mind, there is this wall of booze looming over me. I swear they put it there on purpose to hook the stressed out parents. Hasn't gotten me yet though.

I totally feel your pain! I have a 22 month old...your prescription should automatically be filled next if you're waiting with a toddler! lol
