Lorelei is definitely a social butterfly and has youth and energy on her side. fair play to her she is a positive person.

Going to bed now had a few we pangs for a glass of red tonight but stopped thinking about it, easier said than done indeed. Hubby has weekend away booked for the end of October and I noticed that was going through my mind also will I be able to have one then. Christ it is a torture is'nt it.
Keep well safe and sober my September buddies.

So here is to day 10 tomorrow and Good Night form the Emerald Isle

Congratulations Caravagio on your six days and Cardhat on 16!

Good night, Black. I'll let you know how our weekend away turns out, Black. In a week and a half, I'll hopefully be de-stressing, relaxing, and feeling happy because I've been sober. WE CAN DO IT, you and I.

Again, thank you for your kind words when I posted earlier, Lorelei. I plan on having good news to report. Having my special "drink" now.

I'm working on staying strong, Dee. It's hard for me because there are so many times I can just have that one drink. The problem is that there's such a fine line between being in a "good" place, for me, and suddenly going over the edge. I really don't want to mess up this time.

Hi BLKDIESAL and stpatrickgirl!

Hugs all. Good luck on your interview Grind.

Feeling remarkably strong tonight. I'm sure it's temporary but I'll enjoy it while I can.

Caravagio, very well done on 6 days! So happy to hear you're feeling good. You as well, rochele and uninvited.

Renarde, you great great, too. Yea! And I'm glad you're hubby is getting some help for his anxiety issues.

And everyone else I didn't name tonight, I've read your posts and thought positive thoughts for you, too. Prayers up for ALL of us.

Checking in and feeling strong and well tonight. Took 2 walks, one before and a quick extra lap after dinner too, with hubby. Weeknights are much easier for me, once I get over a few days. Saturday night has net seemed ot make me feel set back in terms of increasing any cravings. I felt well today, more energy, as if I am still making progress. So, that is good. Have the Rational Recovery book arriving tomorrow.

Newleaf, stay strong and enjoy that tonic and seltzer. I stocked up on a few bottles of flavored seltzers today, and also have lemons and limes on hand. I like having a nice drink in a nice glass, even if I give up the wine.

Grindilow, when is the job interview? I may have read it but forget!

Lorelai, I also find you so kind and uplifting. Glad you are here with us.

Raider, I bet you are a ton of fun! I just get a vibe from you. You have a great sense of humor.

Okay, my memory is only so good. Got to read some more to remember what I wanted to say to people.

welcome Eliasson, stick with us and we will help.

Renarde, you are working it girl! You seem very grounded in your plan. I hope you are not working too hard today. I know you have said work is very busy.

Fifth, I hope you are feeling better tonight.

Hello to everyone else. Goodnight to those in the UK, we have quite a few!

Off to watch a new quiz show with the kids. Then get them to bed. Feeling good tonight.
