Glad you came back icandoallthings! You can do this... Come check in with us before you take that first drink. That is my plan when my urges get super strong.
I've made a huge list on the first page of my new journal if all of the things to do instead if letting my AV win again. I am committed to go through all of them (it's quite an extensive list!) when AV tempts me. I am done laying down and letting AV tell me I need a drink again, I'm ready to fight back now, lol.
Dmr, I am a total sucker for Reese's! They are already long gone from my kids Halloween buckets, I may have traded and bribed my kids for all if them.

welcome Claire and BeerTooth 
good to see you back icandoallthings
if the weekends are a problem, I reckon it's good to start thinking now about what you can do differently next weekend
any ideas?

Just checking in. It's great to see everyone doing so well. I started my new job today and all is good - they seem like the kinda folk who wouldn't even notice a non-drinker in their midst. Phew. Because I'm certain they would notice that other version of me. Day 8 and feeling great! Well, just moderately OK really, but that doesnt rhyme. Sending strengths to the rest of November's class.

Thanks Dee! I have to think about it. Every evening starting about 7 is when I start to fret. I don't know if weekends will be harder. They don't differ much from weekdays for me. I think it is just getting through that first day.

Day 3 was probably the hardest for me so far for whatever reason. Just exhausted and some chills. My legs felt strange almost like there was stuff crawling around in them is the only way to describe it. Probably just restlessness and tired, had some shaking but made it through just fine. On to the morning of day 4.

I love the idea of spending my drug money on Christmas gifts! It's strange, when I quit I though I would have extra money like crazy but I don't. I think I'm spending it on food lol. Today is day 51 off opiates. Sleep issues still plague me but I'm not gonna use today! Welcome to everyone!

day four for me and feeling great
I did six weeks and thought moderation was the way to go, it SOOOOOO wasnt!
I managed it pretty well until last weekend when i had a proper bender. Yuck! I actually never ever want to feel like that ever again.
