Hmm cream cheese enchiladas sound intriguing

Almost ten days in and I had my first "drinking dream" early this morning. I dreamed I had drank two beers of a 24pk and then all of a sudden realized, WTH? am I doing? I felt panicked.
I was glad to wake up this morning sober and it was all just a dream.
Anyone else having drinking dreams?

Woke up at 5am thinking I better get some more sleep or I am going to feel awful. Then remembered I didn't drink anything last night and was in bed by 9. I got up, made a coffee and went for a walk. Had the city all to myself. Was awesome.

Sitting in office waiting to start workweek. Focusing on how good treadmill will feel this evening. Looked at bank account this morning. Whew I'm mad at myself still. Like to have that 8$ back I threw away on some beers last weekend.
Weight still inching up also. After about 2 months of sobriety ( more or less) I've realized it's all gonna be diet from now on. At 44, the body's shifting a lot this year.
Supper time has to change to protein shake. That's all there is to it. There's no fighting it. I'm 20-30 lbs over and it's gonna get me. Had a good weekend. Wife and I talked a little. She's got something else medically going on . She doesn't get a break. Whew.
Well it's a day 2, but not following a binge or even much of a buzz. 8$. I'll feel that by the weekend. Hmf. Forgive and move forward.

Well it's officially the start of day 19. Ready to head to work. Going to bed early these days must be paying off because I actually woke up feeling rested and ready for the day! The whole self care and listening to my body thing is a little new to me. Hope everyone has a sober day

Checking in start of day 2. I am really going to make some life changes. I can't keep doing this. I need to find how to live an alcohol free life. Seems so easy. Small steps.

My first waking thought every morning (after strangely restful sleeps, lately) is always, "I know in my heart that I'm not going to drink alcohol today." And any thought that counters that assertion I can easily recognize as my addiction talking sh*t! Always thought a "split personality" was a sign of mental illness; not anymore!

Sober day, new friends,
Arp

Good Morning - starting on day 3 for me. Day 3 has been a trial for me in the past - its often when the AV starts awakening and tortures me with constant thoughts of drinking. 2pm until 6pm are my bad hours. I have a major cleaning project scheduled for this afternoon so I am hoping that righteous cleaning will keep the voice muted.
