Day 41 - Had a major wobble.
It’s Saturday night, I decided to go out and get a Starbucks about 7pm. It was a crisp evening, but not too cold for a change. As I got near to my destination, I got ambushed by some intense alcohol cravings. I’ve been battling severe cocaine cravings recently, so I think I’d gotten a little complacent on the alcohol. My route to Starbucks goes straight passed the liquor store. Next thing I know, my shoes have taken me straight through the entrance. Somehow I’d decided that I was fine now and I could almost taste a cold beer going down my throat and how good it would feel.
I managed to steady the ship and slip back out of the door before it looked too awkward. I got my Starbucks and look a different route home. That was a close call. Stay vigilant out there friends.

I'm glad you were able to change your mind Pete - thats a great lesson to learn IMO
so many times once I had the desire to drink, I blindly followed it though - but it doesn't have to be that way

Good show. The thing I have been reciting in my head all week (I’ve been sober for a week today), is that if I do not take the first drink, I cannot get drunk. And if I take the first drink, I do not have the power to stop. AA is really helping me. Have you tried it?
