Having a rough afternoon. My daughter went back to school this morning. Hubby took the boys to bball practice. This is really pretty much the first time I have been home alone since my Mom passed. It's becoming more real that she is gone now.
I want to go to the store and buy beer.
I mean you know that I don't really want to..But the thought is there. And I know it would just make everything worse. And add a heaping of anxiety on to what I am already feeling.
Thought I'd better come post.
Eating cookies and made tea too.

I'm glad you came here and posted ChickChick 
I think the grief probably gets stuck if we drink on it. I know for sure that the pain was still there when I sobered up.
Making a nice cup of tea is my surefire cure for stress. Keep Going.

When something happens where I end up with that feeling Chick, I always remember what PJ says:
There is no way I can convince myself I want to be in MORE pain, no matter what my stupid AV wants me to do....
Proud of you honey. Going to make tea here as well.

Thank you all. ❤ I didn't mean to take over the thread but it worked. I worked out for half an hour. Feeling much better. A little niggle of AV there but she can stuff it. Gonna take a shower to wash off the icky. Make a snack, start a movie and knit till my family get a home in an hour and a half.
I know how much AV hates sober plans.

Haven't posted in a couple of days but I'm on day 30 today and with the exception of this virus that I just cannot kick, I'm feeling ok. Very run down and no energy at all. Most likely because of the bug.
Praying for 24 more sober hours!
