made it day 8

Today makes my 8th day sober...

Had a bit of a rough time in my mind for a little bit "you know that mind battle when you get around the stuff." We went to a wedding and there was alcohol and then afterwards went over to a friends house and he offered my husband and I a beer and I declined both times.
Know one knows of my problem but my husband. Even if I tried to take a drink he would NOT let me. I guess you can say he is my baby sitter on the matter. Which is something I definaly need right now.
I think that I am also going to try a meeting this week "I have not been to one yet" as well I have so many questions.

Congrats on day 8 and for being able to hold on through a wedding!!!

I remeber sneaking off to the bathroom with a few glasses at one wedding when I "wasnt drinking." How lame was that, like no one could tell

Hope you follow up and go to a meeting. No good reason not to give it a try.
Most likely you will meet some nice people and and and....
Take Care
