Good afternoon dearest friends. Just popping in whilst I work from home today.
The end is in sight exam-wise I feel. Well, still 5 more to go but getting there. We have planned a trip down to London on the 29th for a couple of nights as a treat. Going to do the whole tourist bit. If I go missing you will probably find me on the lap of the Tom Hardy model at Madame Tussauds! :lmao:
Neoo I've been thinking about you since you posted last night. It struck me perhaps that you've had the court thing to focus on and in a way blame for your anxiety for such a long time. Now that it's over (thank God!) it might actually be a bit tougher to deal with your symptoms. Hey I'm no expert but I am a big fan of self-care and being kind to yourself. Perhaps the old ladies could do with a thrill? Take care sweetheart :hug:
Anyhoo…………. feeling a bit rough still but I'm quite happy and plodding on. Gonna blast those germs at aquafit tonight with my old ladies!
Lots of love to all. 24 please!!!!!!!!!

9:13am. Day 11. Knowing there is alcohol in the house got to me a bit yesterday. I did not want to drink it, but I wanted to pour myself a stash in case I wanted it at later date. I physically made the walk to get it a few times and then argued my AV away. I don't need it.

Is there a way to toss it out? Is it yours or someone else's? That can make things extra challenging when you're trying to abstain and it's still there, staring at you. If it's someone else's can you ask them to hide it?
Glad you argued with your AV but I also wish you didn't have that temptation lying around. Wishing you a strong day ahead...check in if you need to, if you are having an urge and we'll help you through it.

Oh well, we will both be really tired tonight....hopefully that means a better sleep. :hug:

It's my husbands, leftover from a party we had. He hid it and I searched it out. I told myself I just needed to know where it was but wouldnt touch it. I think I might come clean and tell him I found it and ask him to give it away.

YCDT2....... Alcohol is not a precious commodity. Pour it down the sink and be RID OF IT!!!!
Let your hubby know first if you think you need to but just let him know that the temptation is too great right now.
I poured my booze out in the sink in my early days because it was too tempting, it was calling my name! Now, I could care less if a guest is drinking a beer, doesn’t bother me in the least. That only happens rarely like if we have a fish fry but I am over that urge for the most part.
Down the DRAIN!
Be STRONG!
